Keep. I, personally, think that Earn to Die 2 is a notable mobile game. It has more than 1 million downloads on Google Play and has on multiple occasions been featured on the popular YouTube channel Annoying Orange. Svetislavs @ 21:30, 17 May 2015 (UTC+3)

Delete We don't have a Earn to Die article, so what makes the sequel notable? And of course, those 'multiple occasions' mentioned on Annoying Orange probably came with promotional consideration for doing so. Nate • (chatter) 23:58, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Reviews from WP:VG/RS-vetted Gamezebo, TouchArcade, Pocket Gamer, and 148Apps are sufficient to pass the general notability guideline. The other stuff (number of downloads from Google Play and coverage from unreliable YouTube hosts) has no bearing on this discussion—does it or does it not have reliable sources? It does. Three are usually enough to draw the line. @Mrschimpf and I dream of horses, courtesy ping – czar 00:45, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not notable enough, mentions of the game on a popular YouTube channel don't really mean much either. Azealia911 _talk 21:19, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What about the reviews from the four reliable sources listed above? – czar 02:31, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Why not? The game is notable enough, and like Svetislavs said, the game has over 1 million downloads on Google Play and has been featured on Annoying Orange multiple times, so I say we should keep it.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Userfy instead of deleting because it's a good start but just isn't enough to keep. --☣Anar chyte☣ 10:08, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Delete (no objection to Userfifaction though) - The "significant coverage in reliable sources" is getting there -- I'm just not seeing enough. Reviews really need to be solid in order to get that free pass re: the "sustained...over a period of time" bit of the GNG. Maybe it's a WP:TOOSOON thing (the game just came out a few weeks ago, it seems). — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 02:52, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
