Sonic Xtreme

"Sega tasked the U.S.-based Sega Technical Institute (STI) with developing the first fully 3D entry in its popular Sonic the Hedgehog series."

Technically, the first 3D Sonic was the fighting game made by AM2. Maybe change it to stay first fully 3d platformer entry?

Mortal Kombat 3

"Stolar, who had arranged a six-month PlayStation exclusivity deal for Mortal Kombat 3[103] "

Mortal Kombat 3 wasn't timed exclusive, it came out on Mega Drive and Super Nintendo and the PlayStation version was published by Sony themselves. It's possible the Sony agreement meant no port of Mortal Kombat 3 on 3DO, Jaguar and Saturn - but in that case it could mention it being a 32-bit exclusive deal.

Game Library: Bug

A recent documentary shows the Spielberg line and media up behind Bug was largely exagerrated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8AVwj0K5nw&t=231s

(Long video, but first 4 minutes covers it)

Given that, should we take the mention of it out of the game library? 92.234.130.167 (talk) 23:57, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

No, because this isn't a reliable source by any stretch of imagination. -- ferret (talk) 01:01, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

Pretty subjective to be an "encyclopedic article"

"Although the Saturn is remembered for several well-regarded games, including Nights into Dreams, the Panzer Dragoon series and the Virtua Fighter series, its reputation is mixed due to its complex hardware design and limited third-party support. Sega's management has been criticized for its decisions during the Saturn's development and discontinuation."

"its reputation is mixed due to" I'd like to see this phrase IN ALL SONY CONSOLES articles. Will not happen, of course. Not for being false. Sony consoles, specially the first 2 generations, have historically linked its giant success to its massive piracy in, at least, SOME important markets. Any word about that in Playstation articles? NO.

"Sega's management has been criticized for its decisions during the Saturn's development and discontinuation."

yeah, well, I DO NOT remember SEGA being criticised during the development of the Saturn and the firsts months or even year of the system. On the contrary. But, I suppose you can always wrote what the hell you want, following a script made by Sony... fans? Or perhaps executives?

Perhaps Wikipedia is not a Encyclopedia, but just a pamphlet to create its own history in everything, being stupidly partisan? Perhaps.
