- It is reasonably well written.
- "It was released for the Wii U as its launch game in November 2012." was it THE launch game or one of several launch games because this makes it sound like the only game that came out with the WiiU.
- There's way too much namedropping of other games in the lead instead of discussion about the game itself. It is mentioned that it is influenced by six games and a film, with barely any mention of its own development despite the hefty design section in the article. Maybe include some years to show milestones of devleopment in that middle para.
- Maybe explain what "chicken" mode does in Gameplay for non-gamers.
- "Four hundred years ago, scientist John Dee made what was known as the Black Prophecy; it was fulfilled in 2012." it then goes on to talk about the coming apocalypse , then says again that it's been realized. Need to remove the "It was fulfilled in 2012 and move it after the preparation stuff.
- "According to Jean-Karl Tupin-Bron, the team was sorry to realize" - sorry is not the correct term to use here.
- "ZombiU received mainly-positive reviews from critics, with scores ranging from 4/10 from GameSpot to 9.2/10 from Official Nintendo Magazine." This doesn't really make sense. If you can't find a source which explicitly states the critical response, then I suggest you rephrase this to say "ZombiU received "generally favorable" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic, with scores ranging..." then use the rest. "mainly positive" isn't accurate when you're saying 4/10 to 9.2 out of 10. That's bad to good.
- Ditch all of hte "Its emphasis on horror was praised." openings of each paragraph in the Critical Reception unless you can source them.
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (reference section):
b (citations to reliable sources):
c (OR):
d (copyvio and plagiarism):

- No edit wars, etc.:
- It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
- a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):
b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
- The cover art image rationale is not complete. The link goes to a different image than the one used in the infobox, the rationale just says "games". It's the same for File:ZombiU gameplay screenshot.jpg, it's barely there and says it will be used in the infobox which is not where it is used, and File:Killer Freaks from Outer Space gameplay.jpg. The other images are fine.
- a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):

- @Darkwarriorblake: - Thanks for the review. I believe I have fixed most of the content issues. For the image part, I am not really familiar with them so I made the amendments using your GA nom as a template. I hope you don't mind. Thanks once again!

- Your changes are very good Adrian, I've slight Ce'd the lead which had a small typo, but other than that I am happy with the changes you've made to the body text and the image summaries mentioned above. Congratulations!Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 22:43, 22 December 2017 (UTC)
