Editorial method
- Open every published URL and record the verification date.
- Separate original, remake, Rare Replay, console, cloud, and PC compatibility claims before writing.
- Put the direct answer first; add only details that help the same search intent.
- Label community observations and preserve conflicts instead of resolving them by guesswork.
- Do not embed or hotlink game art. Do not copy competitor text.
Update rules
PC availability, price, subscription access, capabilities, and achievements can change. Those facts keep a visible verification date. Strategy patterns and original-manual controls change less often, but their links are still checked during a release review.
A source that becomes inaccessible is removed from the public ledger or replaced before it supports a published claim.
