Because it is amazing.

It's really a tie for me. Well actually I've only gotten like 30-ish stars so far in Galaxy, so I'm not sure how fun the overall game is.
Rocky Road is a fun stage though. powerofone;

But the boss fightsare way too easy. gonk; I've yet to fight the final battle though.
The only one that gave me slight challenge was the Bouldergeist on the daredevil run. :|

lol I just did that last night.
It was literally the first thing I did in 2008, cause I turned the game on after the ball dropped.
I think it took like 5 tries.

1) He's made like 4 games
2) Back in 1994
3) No

Super Mario Galaxy is overrated.
So is bioshock and halo 3. :|
Quote from: CONKER on January 01, 2008, 01:57:30 PM
When did I mention either game?
The best game of the year would probably be Mass Effect, Call of Duty 4, or the Orange Box.
The only thing on that list that is good is Orange Box. Mass Effect was a steaming pile of shit with garbage shooting controls, Call of Duty 4 was good but not worthy of GOTY, and the Orange Box is better on the PC.
LOL :|

Yes an Xbox 360, ill take a picture and put my name on it if you want. :)

CoD4:
yayaaa shoot shoot shoot oh game over. Same as all previous CoD games.
Mario Galaxy:
woo new features, creativity, amazing soundtrack, smooth controls, excellent camera control, beautifully crafted level design.

I don't care that much. :D
Galaxy, jump jump hit hit float oh look stars, oh cap i fell.
If you don't care then why did you ask if I had anything besides Nintendo systems? :D
I just raped your asshole and now you are trying to cover it up :|
Also there is more to Galaxy then just jumping. Play the game and you'll find out. :|
Quote from: CONKER on January 01, 2008, 02:18:00 PM
I don't care enough for you to take a picture retard. I've played the game, it's good but not game of the year worthy.
My ass it's not worthy of the year. It not only revived a whole genre by itself, but it perfected so many things in that genre. What the hell did Call of Duty 4 do that was so amazing for the shooter genre? Nothing that I noticed.
Quote from: CONKER on January 01, 2008, 02:22:50 PM
It's realistic, uses real weapons, and the voices are great. What the hell did Super Mario Galaxy do?
Well lets see shall we:
It perfected controls
It perfected level design
It perfected the way gravity works
It perfected the way platforming in general should work
It perfected spherical worlds
It perfected the difficulty curve in the later levels
It perfected a genre
Need I go on? :|
It's realistic, it uses real weapons and the voices are great is like saying that every single WWII shooter is great.
NICE THINGS YOU CAME UP WITH THERE LOL
Quote from: MarioSonic44 on January 01, 2008, 02:28:10 PM
It perfected controls
lol no
But I suppose it's the best for the Wii so far.

Sounds like Ratchet and Clank to me except Ratchet andClank is better. Call of Duty 4: MODERN WARFARE and it looked beautiful and online is great with perks and all the features.
Super Mario
GALAXYOnline is basically a staple for all 360 games, and the game did look great, but if that's the best thing you can ride on, then Crysis would have fucking won game of the year.
Ratchet and Clank got like what... a 7.5 from Gamespot?
It hardly worked gravity other than jumping, the level design was sub-par, and you are running out of things to say. Ratchet and Clank or Call of Duty 4? Pick one retard.

Fine gamerankings. It has somewhere in the 8's there. While Mario Galaxy is the first or second highest rated game.
Portal is the game worthy of GotY. Not a sequel, inventive gameplay, genre blending (FPS and puzzle), great writing, AND it manages to create a captivating and memorable experience without relying on nostalgia or falling into the crowded "shoot em up" category.

But it's just about two hours long and leaves you with an "okay, I'm done" feeling.
Quote from: CONKER on January 01, 2008, 02:39:05 PM
Holy fucking christ. No wonder you were banned. You said Super Mario Galaxy revived platforming and listed the things that were good about it, so I mentioned that Ratchet and Clank had all of that plus gorgeous graphics. And why did you outline Galaxy? I outlined Modern Warfare because you said it was another WWii game.
Weren't you the one who tried to impersonate me faggot?
I outlined Galaxy because I felt like it :|
Ratchet and Clank did not do anything that Galaxy did other than sharing the same genre. I don't know what kind of drugs you are on when you think Ratchet and Clank is even in the same league as Mario Galaxy.

I do admit it was short, really it's only downfall. I don't mind too much, that was the best 2 hours I've had this entire year (in terms of gaming).
Also, lol @ SMG "revitalizing" the genre. Platforming is still condemned to cheap movie/television show tie ins and bargain bin games with the occasional diamond in the rough. I do think that comparing it to Ratchet and Clank is stupid though, SMG is soooooo much better and memorable.

I really can't remember the last really good 3D platformer until Mario Galaxy came around.

Exactly, it's a dying genre. Millions of platforming games won't spring up because of SMG.
Also, I feel I should mention Crackdown. It's definitely not GotY material, but it was a solid 8/10 game and was great fun when it lasted.
Quote from: CONKER on January 01, 2008, 02:48:17 PM
Yes and you mentioning me telling JMV I was you isn't considered running out of things right? And outlining random things is useless and retarded.
I don't give
a shit what you think is retar
ded or not.
And no, because I at least said something after it that was on topic.
Christ almighty, I suppose I can't even make a thread about game awards.
i heard my name
I really didn't think Mario Galaxy was GOTY material... for Wii, sure, but otherwise no. It never really captured my interest. Uncharted was the best game on a console imo, and Bioshock seemed better than Galaxy as well.
It's still fun, I just wouldn't put it above other some other releases this year

I don't really consider Bioshock an FPS since I mostly went for hand to hand combat and used my plasmids, and because it focuses mostly on exploration like Metroid Prime.
