I do believe there was a RISC-OS version of this game released, can anyone please confirm this?

...

There are two articles about this game, namely Flashback: The Quest for Identity and Flashback (computer game)...They need to be merged and one needs to be deleted. S Sepp 14:05, Nov 6, 2004 (UTC)

I pasted together the two articles about Flashback. Feel free to improve the article.

I have done large-scale copyediting. I have not added or removed any content. EDIT: I also removed stub status. S Sepp 21:57, Nov 23, 2004 (UTC)

I don't think the external link to mobygames should be present. It is a commercial website which is not NPOV, and does not add much to the article. I have read http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/When_should_I_link_externally and have decided to remove the link. S Sepp 21:09, Nov 24, 2004 (UTC)

But isn't the external link there for people who want more detailed information about the game, such as platforms, developers, screenshots, etc, from a site that specializes in video games (MobyGames), as opposed to Wikipedia, which is not? Don't most game articles link to MobyGames, in a way similar to IMDb linking on movie articles? Another World also links to MobyGames.. Linking to MobyGames looks like the right thing to do, in my opinion. Wasn't there some debate about this in Wikipedia in the past, with some reasonable conclusions? Also, I think, inconsistency is another thing to consider.. shouldn't there be a standard for MobyGames linking for games?

Maybe I was wrong. Many articles about games link there, and I didn't really know what kind of site it was. I looked for the discussion you referred but couldn't find it...Do you know where it was? I have re-added the Mobygames link. S Sepp 21:37, Nov 28, 2004 (UTC)

Is there a reason why game details are presented in a table rather than a game infobox? --Jmstylr 09:52, 1 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
