• Delete for failing WP:CRYSTAL. ArcAngel (talk) 01:00, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: This is why all "future" events are deletion candidates. When we let them go, we just end up with gibberish or wasted server space. Utgard Loki (talk) 17:10, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, the article cites GameSpot, a reliable source. Wikipedia has all kinds of articles for future games. The game is in production and screenshots have been released. --Pixelface (talk) 08:45, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete — Crystal, indeed. nb: that unreliable gamespot post is 2+ years old. Cheers, Jack Merridew 11:22, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  Gamespot is a reliable source and sources don't have an expiration date. --Pixelface (talk) 19:05, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  1) not. 2) an old product announcement not followed-up with substance is a pretty good indication of vaporware. Cheers, Jack Merridew 06:01, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  GameSpot is a reliable source for gaming news and Wikipedia has many articles on upcoming video games. If you can cite a reliable source that says this game is "vaporware", go ahead (Wikipedia has several articles on "vaporware"). --Pixelface (talk) 22:56, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. WP:CRYSTAL as above, and a single review from inclusionist site isn't significant coverage. Percy Snoodle (talk) 13:01, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• comment I see no evidence that the game is still in production, indeed Zero Point Software does not appear to exist at all anymore and these trailers are the only thing they ever seem to have produced. Beeblbrox (talk) 09:51, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as above. Eusebeus (talk) 23:05, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
