The subject of the article absolutely does not conform to the notability guidelines of Wikipedia. There is no rational way to claim that this business is in any way notable. Furthermore, none of the claims made by Howard Sherman (the business owner) in the article are verifiable - not even the date of the founding of the business!

• Keep Two citations in Wired, one from a local newspaper. All three are directly covering the business and the business's products. That looks like multiple reliable sources, independent of the subject, each of which provides significant coverage. As best I can tell, that meets the general notability guideline. — Alan De Smet | Talk 17:26, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Uncovered another useful citation in the form of published PhD Thesis. Added it to the article. — Alan De Smet | Talk 02:16, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, weakly, largely per Alan De Smet. While some of the references are to blogs and other less formal sources, they are from people who have made names for themselves as game developers. No one will mistake this article for a PR piece. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 15:46, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
