Starting to review this. --PresN 19:29, 6 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

And... unsurprisingly I don't have much, seeing as you're one of the best article writers in the VG project. There were couple instances where you had the period inside of a not-a-full-sentence quote, which I fixed. You're missing accessdates on your online sources, though that seems to have been intentional, and the two IGN sources could use an archive. As far as GA goes, you're golden- great job building an article on an 80s video game! --PresN 19:57, 6 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Thanks a ton for the review! (Not to mention the flattering comments.) I'll archive those IGN sources soon. JimmyBlackwing (talk) 20:15, 6 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Commercial Success

Latest comment: 5 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The article twice states that the game was a greater commercial success than the film. Are there any figures for this? Computer game grosses in the 1980s were generally kept secret. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 20:45, 12 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Just came to say this.

The reception segment states that "In the United States, Labyrinth was more commercially successful than the film upon which it was based", and attributes this to source [11]. Upon review, I can't seem to find information regarding the financial success throughout the entire book (and especially not within the 2 pages referenced).

I would recommend either removing this information, or finding another source to attribute it to. TrueDon Elf (talk) 03:28, 25 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
