Draft:Backyard Football (1999 video game)

  • Comment: Two things: firstly, the gameplay section is not too well sourced - the one citation coming from a media release which isn't cited correctly; you may wish to fix that and complement that section's sources with secondary material. Secondly, notability for video game articles usually hinges on multiple reviews - here there is only one. Best practice is three multiple reliable reviews from WP:VG/S-type sources. Check Metacritic or Mobygames as a first step. VRXCES (talk) 09:03, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
