|
Kinect Star Wars received a peer review by Wikipedia editors, which is now archived. It may contain ideas you can use to improve this article. |
The present article states that the release date is "2012", using this other article as a reference: http://popwatch.ew.com/2011/06/05/star-wars-at-e3-your-first-look-at-kinect-star-wars-exclusive/ Here, i quote from the link: "Simply called Kinect Star Wars, the game is intended for all ages and will hit stores this winter." The author is from USA, so it's obvious the date referenced is 'winter/late 2011'. Besides, on this other article http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/11720937, which title is: "Xbox Kinect to get Star Wars game in 2011" so it supports my idea. You guys could add it as a reference, because i dont know how, i'm going to edit the article right now. Greetings
Winter in 2012 where I live starts in June. This is a very USA-centric and northern hemisphere-centric article. Please, when writing articles for Wikipedia, try to remember that there is a lot more to the world than the USA. In fact there are 6 billion people that DON'T live in the USA.

Twice now ( [1] [2]) the DYK hook was removed from this talk page by someone claiming it is a BLP violation, without any further explanation. I ask that before this user removes it again, they comment here on the talk page about why exactly they feel it is a BLP violation. Personally, I don't see how it could be considered one. This is simply a notice that this article was featured in DYK, with a hook that was peer-reviewed by multiple editors at T:TDYK, was met with no BLP complaints there, and seen as appropriate enough to run on the Main Page. The only thing I can possibly see as being argued a BLP is the fact that it wikilinks to Star Wars Kid, but the mere fact that it links to it isn't a BLP. First of all, that article is about an Internet meme, not a person. Secondly, if simply linking to the article is a BLP violation, then that would mean the article itself would have to be a BLP violation, and yet that article still exists. — Hun ter Ka hn 22:12, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
The following quote should be removed as to keep in wiki standards of objectivity.
Brad Shoemaker of Giant Bomb thought poorly of the game saying, "It doesn't matter who you claim Kinect Star Wars is for, it's a shoddy product on almost every level. There are a few glimmers of what could have been in here, but this is not the game that legitimizes Kinect as a game-playing device, nor does it do a single thing to restore any vibrancy or value to the Star Wars license. Fans of Star Wars, Kinect hopefuls, and little kids all deserve better."[10]
Reasoning: Who is Brad Shoemaker? What does he have to do with the game other than writing a scathing review? This should not be intended to persuade someone to spend money on a product nor to avoid a product. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.64.212.107 ( talk) 20:51, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
Apparently, if one were to Google "kinect star wars dance", he or she would discover that the topic has been widely discussed not only by the video game websites, but also by mainstream sources (such as Time). In the "Reception" section, should I add a video that shows the gameplay of the dance off because it has received significant coverage?

This link shows Game Informer's review of the game and the rating they gave it. I would add it myself but I don't know how. Thanks SGPolter ( talk) 14:28, 9 February 2017 (UTC) http://www.gameinformer.com/games/kinect_star_wars/b/xbox360/archive/2012/04/04/the-force-is-broken.aspx
