Fair use rationale for Image:Sw2ecover-eu-ps2.jpg

Image:Sw2ecover-eu-ps2.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.

Create-a-Warrior in SW2:XL

... is it going to be in the game, or will the game basicly be another blah edition? CAW has been one of the best features in any -Warriors game, and yet they consistently disclude it as much as they can, it seems... --Melissia (talk) 18:09, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

It wasn't in the Japanese version, so its probably not in this one. Of course they could add new features to this version, but i highly doubt they will do so. --EveryDayJoe45 (talk) 21:26, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, damn. Looks like it will only be worth a rental, then. Create-A-Warrior was one of the best features they've put in their series, it's sad to see them dump it. --Melissia (talk) 19:15, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

SW2:XL in X-Box 360?

I was specifically wondering whether Samurai Warriors 2: Xtreme Legends will be released for the Xbox360. Considering that it seems rather evident that the PS2 is the only format currently available for the game in Japan, do they plan on releasing it for the 360 during some time into the future, or will they just cancel such an idea out of laziness? Thanks. User talk:Exiled Ambition 15 January 2008 (EST)

Character drawings appearing in every associated historic figures' articles

I think its a little tacky to see the character sketches from this game appearing in every associated article of a historic figure. The larger articles on major figures (like Nobunaga or Tokugawa Ieyasu) make some sense, but they dominate portions of the smaller articles and make it out to be a cross-article advertisement for this game. --Bobak (talk) 23:12, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, either way, it is appropriate to the article in term of its relation to cultural influence, and even though it may be seen as dominating articles by means of the image size, it is still a respective piece of the article and is therefore fitting to the criteria. Even though it could also easily be seen as a form of advertisement towards the game developer, such a factor cannot be expressed as criticism when seeing that the image acts according to the article's propriety. With such circumstances, only changing the size of the image is an action that is acceptable.User:Exiled Ambition 17 January 2008 (EST)

PC Version

Could someone better at wiki than me add in a mention of the UK-only PC version? 87.194.242.36 (talk) 10:23, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

The game was also released in the US, were there any significant changes for the PC version?

Also revising the following paragraph;

"Samurai Warriors 2 is also ported to the PC and it is released on the 27th of June 2008 though some people will have the game on "Slow Motion" due to the fact that there is no option for frameskipping in the PC version and thus at a point where the player normally lags in the game, it will be in Slow Motion."

Aside from the odd structure, I don't feel technical issues have a place in the article - if I'm wrong, perhaps this should be added in a "Critical reception" segment? -- Outrack (talk) 09:52, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
