I would have thought File:Rockstar Vienna Logo.svg met the threshold for originality, but it's survived multiple edits over a long time at Commons, so I'll assume consensus is the other way.  Earwig shows no issues.  The Computec press release source is used only to say that the company announced certain things, so that's an acceptable use of the source.

What makes gamesmarkt.de a reliable source?
"which was sold over one million times": "sold over a million copies" would be more natural.
"After selling more than a million copies of Alien Nations in 1999, Computec Media acquired a majority stake in the company, seeking it to produce online games."  Needs rewording; as written this says Computec sold more than a million copies of Alien Nations.
"Seifert's 1989 game Der verlassene Planet was the first commercial release from Austria": suggest "first commercial video game release".
Spotchecks:

FN 2 cites " The move was described as a cost cutting exercise: Rockstar Games had too many studios and its expenses were too high, and the decision to close Rockstar Vienna was made easier because it was its only studio in a non-English-speaking country." Verified.
FN 20 cites "Later in 2001, JoWooD published Neo Software's sequel to The Clue!, The Sting!."  Verified.
FN 8 cites "The game's success allowed Neo Software to begin moving to the more central Business Park Vienna in 1994, which made it easier to hire international employees."  Verified.
I've copyedited a little; please check I didn't screw anything up.  Not much to criticize overall; the article is in good shape. Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 14:16, 23 September 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your review, @Mike Christie! I made a few edits that I believe should address your prose points. GamesMarkt is a long-running trade magazine launched in 2001 and published by Busch & Glatz. I also added another major German source, 4Players, to back up that sentence.
