Article fails to meet WP:N, also, those of you arguing that there are other xbox live games that have pages, please view WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. — Dædαlus Contribs 23:58, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete — there is some significant coverage here, but 1) some users may question the reliability of this source, and 2) I could not find the same coverage in other reliable sources. Needs more to fully establish notability. MuZemike 03:47, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]- There's a second review by the same source, except for the Non-Extreme version.

- Keep. This is a legit game, including one that's being remade for XBLA. Furthermore, it's one of Strange Flavour's key games, and a major game on Mac OS. I have no idea why in the world it would be considered for deletion. (PS: Please consider notifying the author(s) by placing subst:adw|Airburst on their talk page(s). I received no such notification.) JAF1970 (talk) 03:21, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Do you have reliable sources to prove its notability though? Gary King (talk) 03:36, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Nothing in that above argument, Jaf1970, makes any argument in regards to the game's notability. Many things can be claimed to be, or said to be, legit, that doesn't make them so, however.— Dædαlus Contribs 05:46, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep on the strength of coverage for the Mac versions, in addition to the two different games being reviewed on Inside Mac Games (per first two comments) there's a review of extreme on MacWorld, there's an interview type thing on Apple's website which helps with development info. Here's a substantial preview of the first game again on Inside Mac Games. Put them together and you've got a small but doable article which can be expanded if and when the XBLA version appears (apparently it's due right at the end of this year).

- Keep per sources that were found. SharkD (talk) 19:31, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Change to keep per the sources found above. That should be enough to meet the GNG. MuZemike 02:39, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Withdraw Per the above sources, which were not present in the original article.— Dædαlus Contribs 03:26, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
