SPM or Godfather

i know Super paper mario got a better review but i dont know whats fun about it. The gameplay doesnt look that good, levels look linear and story seems a bit cliche' and a basic copy off LOZ:TP. dont get me wrong im not trying to rip off Super paper mario i believe it is a dam good game but i just dont understand what makes it so good.

So can anyone whos played the game tell me why it is as good as it is said to be and if youve played the Godfather as well tell me why i should get Super paper mario over it.

any help is greatly appreciated

Pick Godfather if you like action games ... pick SPM if you like classic but sometimes frustrating games!(or if ur a rlli HUGE Mario Fan)

I hav both of em

Tough choice. Why don't you rent them first? I rented Godfather and loved it, but beat the story mode in about 25 hours (theres plenty to do after that, but nothing you haven't already done). So when SPM came out last Tuesday, I bought it and just beat it last night. However there is TONS of stuff left to do. I have pixls to find, the Pit of 100 Trials, etc, etc. left to do with no end in sight. But the Godfather was good enough for me to trade Red Steel and WarioWare in for it on Sunday at Gamestop. I haven't played it since then due to Super Paper Mario, but they are both great games that are deserving of your attention. And SPM is nothing at all like a Zelda game.

I think SPM is getting really good reviews because its fun but also quite innovative and original. It takes the classic game to a whole new level whereas the Godfather is pretty much the same old GTA type game with added motion controls and a sort of Monopoly Tycoon twist on it. Don't get me wrong, the Godfather is a great game but if you've already played GTA, then SPM seems to be a better choice. Also, if you're like me and play your Wii after a long hard day of work or school, SPM is easier since u don't have to go all crazy with the Wiimote and Nunchuck =D.Isom3tric
