Dance music and Amiga[edit]

I think that the sourceless paragraph about dance music and Amiga must be inaccurate. OCS Amigas do not support CD-quality sound thus professionals would have never used it to make the actual piece of music. But they used Amiga (and ST) as a midi controlling device (for composing, while sound came from other sources). Of course for casual listener Xenon II may prove that Amiga can produce music that sounds virtually same as what you hear on radio but that's a different thing. --88.195.104.180 (talk) 17:22, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

I removed it. It's mostly wrong. Xenon 2 was not the first product to include release-quality music. Many demos did that already. Xenon 2 was one of those products that demonstrated the ability of the Amiga to produce decent music. - Richard Cavell (talk) 10:07, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

I think this is the best Amiga game for non-AGA machines. Fantastic graphics and sound, awesome gameplay and even more visually impressive when you consider it was realised before the 1990s! Christopedia (talk) 21:47, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Xenon 2000 PFC - If Keyboard does not work[edit]

When I ran this, Xenon 2000 would not take any keyboard controls nor did the mouse work. However, I found out how to get the keyboard to work. If you have ZoneAlarm, it will say this program is trying to monitor the keyboard, don't press Allow too quickly, give it a good few seconds before allowing Allow.

I have not yet tried it with a Joystick - connected to Game Port or Joystick - connected to USB.

Sorry, to put this here, but I hunted around on Google for ages and I could not find a solution, so decide to put the tip here! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.169.69 (talk) 02:06, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Outro lame??[edit]

when i finish the dos version of Xenon 2 it's not disappointing as said in the article - in fact after the shop dude tells me that i finished the game, the screen goes black with a white dot in the midddle and when i push fire it starts from the beginning with most enemies having double health (hit them 2x instead of 1x) and i think that's a pretty cool addition! you can spend even more time with playing. hehe so maybe that should be mentioned?! i'll add it, if someone does not like it, correct it! greetings -- 195.14.207.39 (talk) 05:49, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Sigh[edit]

Some seriously shit-tier POV pushing going on in this article. --86.152.199.158 (talk) 23:41, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

What is this dispute about? 2fort5r (talk) 03:36, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Err. I've removed the POV template as the initiator did not name any specific concern. --hydrox (talk) 17:39, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Box Art[edit]

Why is there a monkfish on the picture? Is this one of the bosses? 2fort5r (talk) 03:08, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

I'll have a look at this one. I first heard of this game while doing research for United Game Artists, and it seems like an interesting game. Comments to come soon. Red Phoenix^talk 12:32, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

Okay, on review I don't have much. Nice job with this article! Here's what I do have for you:

• Take a look at the fair use rationale for File:Xenon II Megablast in-game screenshot (Atari ST).png . Specifically I'm looking at the 'low resolution' parameter where it's stated it's of a low resolution inherently - and then a bot had to go back and reduce it because it wasn't low resolution enough. I would put in that the resolution has been reduced from the original.
• In the last paragraph of Development and release, we have a very abrupt shift from a story about a release contest into a listing paragraph of all the other releases. Can this be smoothed out to read easier? Maybe some transitional wording or separating the paragraph. I'll let you decide how you want to handle it.
• Be careful what you link in references. Links to magazine copies on archive.org are likely okay, but one of your magazine sources is linked to http://www.atarimania.com/. I grant you it's tough to know for sure without contacting the administrators of the website, but I'm almost positive their copy of the magazine source is posted without permission and therefore we've linked to a copyright violation. That's not something we want to do, and I'd just remove the URL from the reference. The source is no less valid for not having a URL.
• While I'm okay with it, be advised that if you took this to FAC eventually you would probably get some challenges on the inclusion of the music file, simply because it's not a standard in video game articles.

This article looks fantastic, and that's really all the gripe I have. I look forward to passing this article very soon. Red Phoenix^talk 13:05, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

Alright, all points have been addressed! Cat's Tuxedo (talk) 16:35, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

Looks good. I will pass the article. Nicely done. Red Phoenix^talk 17:31, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

• ( Review or comment
• Article history )

• .. that the video game Xenon 2: Megablast was named after its theme music, 'Megablast (Hip Hop on Precinct 13)' by Bomb the Bass?
  • ALT1:.. that the video game Xenon 2: Megablast was ported to the Atari Jaguar 20 years after the console's discontinuation?

Improved to Good Article status by Cat's Tuxedo (talk). Self-nominated at 18:24, 2 April 2020 (UTC).

• Date, length, hook, and sources all look good, and the article follows Wikipedia policies and guidelines. I personally think the first hook is better than ALT1; I think the latter is maybe a bit too technical and the first is more accessible to average readers. Either way though, this is good to go. — HunterKahn 03:06, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
