Alright, this nomination has been waiting too long, lets do this. I review articles by posting a list of issues as I read through, rather than a template; I'll fix minor grammar issues myself rather than call them out.

  • "which included additional stages and new features via OpenFeint integration" - should explain a little bit what OpenFeint is/was rather than relying solely on the link
  • "Following a digital release on consoles, word of the announcement spread to Western regions; the iPad version, titled Space Invaders Infinity Gene HD, was anticipated to release before the end of the year.[37] Soon after, the iPad version released in 2010." - no point having a sentence about the game being anticipated to be released, immediately followed by it being released
  • "Infinity Gene would temporarily go on sale in the App Store in December 2011 and again a year later." - given that the article (as per normal) does not discuss prices, I don't think the game having a sale should be in the article. Same thing in the Android paragraph.
  • "In February 2011, the publisher announced a second album titled Space Invaders Infinity Gene –Evolutional Theory– that would release at the end of March.[53] The soundtrack was delayed a few weeks until April 13, 2011." - there's no need, 15 years later, to talk about release date announcements rather than just releases, especially when the delay was only 2 weeks.
  • "Rumors appeared online..." Again, no need to discuss rumors and speculation, especially not immediately prior to what actually happened being stated
  • No source issues found, though if a reference does not have an author, it's not recommended to use "Staff", but to instead leave it blank (per Help:Citation Style 1)

That's it, there wasn't much to comment on, it's a nicely written article. If you intend to go to FAC later, I'd recommend a copyedit pass for concision and some awkward phrasing (using "the company" or "the director" to avoid saying Taito/Ishida or it/he reads oddly sometimes), but that's about it. Placing on hold for now. --PresN 17:38, 29 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the feedback and the fixes you made. I believe I addressed your concerns above. I kept the "Staff" in the citations because no author changes the order of the citation information. If it's not a hard rule, I'd rather keep the formatting consistent. Although I will do a deeper dive of the web sources without an author to see if I can find an editor-in-chief to list.
Regarding Featured status, I appreciate the help. If it has a chance at FAC, I may put it up for peer review to fine tune the prose. (Guyinblack25 talk 19:39, 29 April 2026 (UTC))Reply
Alright, passing for GA. --PresN 19:54, 29 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
