I noticed some of the changes to the Fallout 4 page, where you fixed some of my changes relating to reducing template entries that would not be used, I didn't know that was an issue and I am fine with the changes. The thing that I found odd was when you made an edit to the Fallout 4 Cover, reverting it to the pre release box art and said it was "Wrong". I checked the Editing Guide and it says that my cover is valid as it is a Steam banner on the storefront, I chose it as it was to the point, less obtrusive than a long DVD cover, and doesn't have rating pending on the cover.

Now you could argue that it is for consistencies sake as most of the Fallout and all of TES games have DVD covers as their infobox images, but it isn't wrong that I decided to use the storefront image.

All games that have retail covers use retail covers. Just look around pages. Only ones that don't are digital-only releases such as Gunpoint.
Also where did you get all the other info like Steam Cloud being available? Is the game in beta or was that revealed? Assuming features isn't allowed.

The game is based off the Creation Engine (An improved Skyrim Engine), it is pretty much guaranteed that Fallout 4 will have features like Windowed mode and 4K support. I have left all of the Hackable and False entries that were in Skyrim, as Unknown simply because they may have improved on some of those features for Fallout 4.

Steam Cloud specifically was because every TES and Fallout (except for F3) on Steam had Steam Cloud support so it isn't baseless to assume that that functionality would be returning to a Steamworks title.

As for the cover issue you are right, though I have seen cases such as MGS TPP where there is a DVD cover available but they have opted to use a poster instead.

I see. Personally I don't care about that, but just saying that someone might revert it. And uhhh I added the cover (or its higher res version?). Just never updated it with the new one since finding good high res version is waste of time and the new cover is uglier anyway.
