Reviews

For those with access to news archives, it seems that Newsday reviewed this game at some point in the '90s, under the title: "PLUG & PLAY Cruising the Entertainment Highway / REVIEWS / A Sparkling Debut / New firm's `Diamond' is polished and pleasing".

There was also a '90s review in Games Magazine ([1]), which I don't know how to access but which may be online somewhere. JimmyBlackwing (talk) 15:03, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Based on this conversation on my talk page, as well as the sources mentioned here on the talk page and those currently on the article, I believe it meets the WP:GNG and am submitting it for re-review to be restored to article space. BOZ (talk) 19:08, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Newsday article is from a regular column, "PLUG & PLAY / Cruising The Entertainment Highway". The actual article has an additional two fluff sentences at the start but otherwise appears to be the same as archived in that link. Here is the full citation: Gill, Ronnie (June 9, 1999). "PLUG & PLAY Cruising the Entertainment Highway / REVIEWS / A Sparkling Debut / New firm's `Diamond' is polished and pleasing". Newsday. p. C07. ProQuest 279210388.

Awesome, thanks, that works for me. BOZ (talk) 04:29, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Figure the Burt Hochberg article in Games Magazine ISSN 0199-9788 was published around the same time (1999)? It's not on their website. Despite Ulrich's listing it as not being indexed and WorldCat listing no holding globally (!!), our index lists the review in October 1999 #155 (vol. 23, no. 7) so @Thibbs should have it.
