By the people that determines if games deserve game of the year rate it 98 outta 100 and it has beaten Super Mario Galaxy which is 97 outta 100. I can't wait to get this game on Wiiware and I also can't believe two people created World of Goo.

didnt know that. but i can concur that this game is great. i was kinda lost in the beginning as i had no idea what this game was about (i feel for hype), but as the game opens up the puzzles get rlly interesting and addictive. must buy for people who want quality games for a justified price...

People who haven't experienced it should download the demo. Playing it there confirmed my future purchase, but I don't think I'll be buying it for the Wii, I have a feeling I'll like it better playing it on my laptop. :D

It's not gamerankings, and if you aren't talking about them then I don't know who your talking about.

Anyways, Galaxy will have a higher overall rating. Galaxy got a bunch of reviews, while World of Goo will be lucky to get 15, and most of those 15 are from the lesser known sites(and IGN).

Unfortunately Wii doesn't have that many awesome games (or maybe they just have an overwhelming load of crappy games).

However, this game is really really awesome

People who haven't experienced it should download the demo. Playing it there confirmed my future purchase, but I don't think I'll be buying it for the Wii, I have a feeling I'll like it better playing it on my laptop. :DZumaJones07

Thank you, i have been asking people where they found the demo for a while now.

I'll try the demo and see if i want the game.

Also Nintendo should have demo's for wii-ware games. If there was no world of goo demo, i might have never considered buying it.

The game is great, surely the best in WiiWare, its so fun, the music is great and the puzzles are very challenging (ok not that much but they have some challenge) 9.5/10 for me because of the camera, it would be better if you can control it with the D Pad.

It's actually tied for 1st with Mario Galaxy. I think he's referring to Metacritic's overall score (97 out of 100).

World of Goo is a great game, but I wouldn't say that it's the best game on the Wii, and honestly, I don't think anyone thinks that. It's probably one of the best games of the year though. :)

However, it was rated 9. 8 for a Wii Ware game that costs fifteen bucks, whereas Galaxy was rated for a full game that costs fifty bucks. So Galaxy is still better than World of Goo. But if there was a Wiiware game of the year, Goo would probably win.

I played it and finished it on the PC. A simple concept used to achieve great heights of enjoyment. It's a little, well hidden, diamond that shows how a great game doesn't necessarily need to have a mastodontic budget/team behind it. One of the best games of the year IMO.

Definately a wonderful, charming game, especially considering the price and small dev team. I prefer controlling it on my couch with the pointer instead of using a mouse. It just feels more natural.

'best' is too opinionated. A title everyone should at least look at and see if they like it = fact. Once in a while a new game comes out that is worth making sure you play it... World of Goo is one of those games.

I'll say it again. He's talking abot the Metacritic score. It got 97 out of 100. I linked it up above, so I'm not relinking it.

BUT, it actually went down to 96 today, so now it's the 2nd highest reviewed game on Metacritic.

The only reason it's scored so high is because it's being reviewed by console game editors who haven't been exposed to the rich Indie PC gaming scene from which World of Goo comes. If they had played the games that WoG pays homage to, like Bridge Builder and Pontifex, I think there would be less hyperbole, since they would see it as just a variant on an old concept.

I have yet to play World of Goo, and it might be a while before I do (stupid Fallout and LBP...) but I'd like to ask any of you unbiased Wii60 owners if you would call this the Wii's Braid. And if so, do you prefer one of the two over the other?

Comparing this to other games like Braid will help me get a better idea of this game's quality relative to other downloadables. How is this game selling, anyway?

To think yet another iteration of tetris competes with World of Goo is an insult... Tetris might be fun and all, but it is still good old 80's tetris. World of Goo is at least original in some regards.

^^^ i seriously doubt i will be playing world of goo (i am playing it now) in 23 years.

I have been playing tetris for 23 years, and it is still fun.

that is replayability!

It isn't that hard for a game to achieve a high average ranking score when it has such a small amount of review.

Yeah, but when Galaxy had as many reviews as World of Goo it was still at 100 out of 100. I am sure that I will love world of goo, but thiers no way that I will like it more than Galaxy.
