Super Mario 3D World

I basically just searched for another con so it looks more professional.

Doesn't that just make you look even less professional?

Judging from the reactions I saw I would say yes.

-Music. 60% of this game's music has been reused. Although that isn't necessarily bad, I would have loved to see more new stuff.

What.....? That's one hell of an exaggeration.

There's only two "reused" tracks I can think of off the top of my head: the Gusty Garden theme and the Snow Overworld from 3D Land, both of which have been remixed and aren't practically copy/paste like the New Super Mario Bros. series post-Wii.

In those Slot-machines there is a remix too, but still, there's enough new music. No problems with the musics.

Can't forget the 3D Land theme's, the Jazzy Main Theme, the theme for the Cloud Heavens, and Underground, but there are slight differences in them.

The word "remix" is used wrong.

Again.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is basically Super Mario Galaxy with new addons and worse swimming controls.

It does not deserve anywhere near a 9/10, yet its Metacritic average is 97/100. That's way too high. There's nothing so redeeming about Super Mario Galaxy 2 to warrant such an unbelievably high score, so I think there's huge bias. It's not just the critics either. The fans also praise this game up the ass.

Super Mario Galaxy is still original, but like the first one, its Metacritic score is way too high (again, 97), but at least an honest score would be closer to this.

It's as if people might have different opinions THOSE MOTHER *bleep*ERS

No, reviewers are paid to do reviews while some fans are just blindsided by Galaxy. Some even say that the models in Galaxy are hi-poly. While they are moderately hi-poly, games including Mario Party 9, Mario Super Sluggers, and Mario & Sonic have higher quality models. It's just the glitzy shine effect in Galaxy.

Galaxy is overrated. Both games are. 8-9/10 is far from a bad score, but when you compare to other games that got 9/10, they pale in comparison.

I think that both Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 deserve their 100/100s very freaking much. They're awesome games, and no game is perfect. Their problem is the swimming controls, and all Mario games have been awful at that. I'm sick of people saying that Galaxy 2 doesn't deserve its praise just because it's a rehash of another game. If the first one was excellent, and this one is a rehash, of course it's excellent too. That doesn't make it have less credit.

It makes it less original and more like a game cashing in and tailcoating off Galaxy 1's universal acclaim. Just because all Mario games have terrible swimming controls doesn't excuse any of them from bad swimming controls.

By the way, the Gusty Garden cover in Super Mario 3D World is a crappy one. The cover from Super Mario 3D Land ice theme is a nice one; too bad the tune appears less often than that other crappy cover I mentioned earlier.

Can't say about Sluggers and Sonic for their models aren't at TMR, but if I look at Mario's model from Galaxy and compare it to the one in Mario Party 9, Galaxy's does is higher in quality. Unless you look at the model that is used in Mario Party 9's title screen, which features a model which tops both.

 

[Xiahou Dun]

Galaxy's model is higher quality? I guess so for Mario. Even then, Mario Party 9's title screen Mario beats most. For enemies and objects in Galaxy, however, they are considerably lower quality, so Mario Party 9 is the preferred game to use models, in, say, Garry's Mod.

Sluggers and Mario & Sonic are frequently used games for porting high quality models into Garry's Mod. The reason I continue mentioning Garry's Mod is that it's one of the few games where I can see models up close without having to rummage through a 3D program...

 

[Lakituthequick]

I can look at other things then Mario himself too sometime. I believe that Kamek's model from SMG is indeed lower-poly then MP9's, when I looked at it a while ago, so you might be very well right about that.

Ah of course I forgot the part where everything you said became fact.
