On March 9th 2016, three months after the creation of the SiIvaGunner channel (when it was still known as GiIvaSunner), two articles were released covering its existence by the publications Kotaku and GameZone; This YouTube Channel Is Definitely The Best Place To Listen To Video Game Music, and Someone has taken the art of trolling to a new level with game theme songs, respectively.
The existence of these two articles, with the former in particular coming from a major publication in the sphere of video game/nerd culture, are cited as making the SiIvaGunner channel notable enough to hold its own Wikipedia page.
An additional interesting factoid is that the Kotaku article, despite its levity, was written by acclaimed journalist Jason Schreier.
Schreier is today famous for his many pieces of investigative reporting and writing covering the video game industry, detailing repeated cases of unsustainable working conditions in game development studios such as Naughty Dog and BioWare, alongside having written three full books on the subject.
