[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Limboscreen1.jpg
Image:Limboscreen1.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Fair Use
Having said that, if the controversy is correct then the developers are going to be having trouble showing fair use too. Bamboo marimba (talk) 14:26, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

- It would be epically ironic if they sued Wikipedia for the use of those images. Manic-pedant (talk) 20:10, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] MEME
seeing as this is what this game is swiftly becoming shall we mention the meme qualities of it? there is one website even holding a competition to make the best background. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.144.185.60 (talk) 12:27, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Hoax / Viral marketing
There is plenty of murmuring that this may all be a hoax / viral marketing. As of this writing, no person partaking in forum discussions on this saga has received a copy of the game. The publisher issuing statements and webstores de-listing the game could be seen as evidence against the idea that this is all a hoax. Regardless, the search for further sources appears to have become something of a passtime for many. ZeBoxx (talk) 15:17, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Citations
I have added several [citation needed] tags for items for which I don't recall any source. I'm putting together a comparison table see below), and although I have sources for many of the allegations - including screenshots / etc. - there are others that are iffy and/or I can find no source for. Could others jump in and add source citations where appropriate? ZeBoxx (talk) 14:06, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

- Great conclusion. I'm following the whole discussion on plagiarism but couldn't find references for Crysis and Silent Hill either. - Jack's Revenge (talk) 15:40, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- And let me add "thank you". :) - Jack's Revenge (talk) 15:40, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks - found a reference for 'Crysis' - it's actually a CryEngine2 Tech Demo vid from 2005. The rest I haven't spotted anywhere yet, and web searching is becoming more and more difficult with every blog and its dog copying eachother verbatim (thus including things without reference).
