How are SMG's graphics compared to the other consoles', graphically, best games?

I am just asking, no flamebait or trolling...I have not played the game yet (Europe...) and I'd like to know.

Rate it on a scale from 0 to 10 compared to GoW or Bioshock etc etc so that I can create an oppinion.

Thanks!!

edit:And if anyone could post an HD video from gametrailers, I would be much grateful. :D

in a word s***, they are good artistically but technicallyprobably 2-3/10 compared to bioshock, gears, uncharted etcThebettertwin

what he said

there a video on gametrailer comparing super mario galaxy and super mario sunshine and they are prety close so smg is =sms and very not in the same league as geow or bioshock.

Ehm you know that the game is out in Europe right?

Artistically, its a great game. Gameplay-wise, its a great game.

However, if you own an HDTV, you will most likely curse Nintendo's decision to forgo HD this generation, as Mario looks blurry and jaggy to no end, and this is definately a game I would have loved seeing in clear, sharp HD.

Its no Gears/BioShock/Ratchet, but the game is simply amazing in almost every other area to make up for that.

Well not in Greece it seems...but I will check it out! Thanks for the info!

If it were released on the PS3/360, it would (IMO) be worth about 6/10 for graphics. Thing is though, it doesn't matter. This is the best game i've played all year by far.

If a game like Bioshock is a 10 (I haven't got Crysis, so I'll use a game I know well), then SMG would probably be...a 7.

It looks great, but it's obviously not as technically advanced as other recent games. Still, it doesn't look bad.

I sure do. The game has quite a few jaggies that I see, and everything is softened a bit instead of being sharp. Its not that big a bother, but its the first Wii game I every thought, "Man, this would look so much better at an HD resolution."

Try it on a SDTV then, it looks gorgeos. :P
I play my Wii on a SDTV and my 360 on a HDTV.

from a technical standpoint...... a 6.

however, from an artistis standpoint it is probably a 8.5 or a 9.the look of the game is more pleaseing to the eye then %60 of the 360 and PS3 games. only prime 3 looks better on the WII. graphics are not about polygon pushing. would you rag a games graphics for being 2-D.ofcourse not. it is all about style in my opinion. ill take street fighter 3 third strike over tekken or VF5 anyday of the week.

I have an HDTV. Thats about it. I was thinking of getting the Wii Component cables and doing cable swaps when I play SMG, but I can live with Jaggies more than I want to spend $30 and swap cables every time.

You'd like that, wouldnt you? Yeah... I know how ALL you Banana people work! ON GUARD!

Back on topic before I get slapped, 8/10.

9/10

I don't see bum textures like in COD4.

It looks like a good looking last gen game. So 3/10 if you have a hdtv and 6/10 if you don't.JimmyT2

First of all, actually play the game on a HDTV before you rate them. Anybody that has played SMG and Gears on the same TV would know that they are comparable in every category. The art style of these two games are very different but I had more "wow" moments with Mario flying across the surface of planets than any time during Gears.

In contrast, I think they had to sacrifice the size of the levels to achieve these graphics, making the game not as deep.

Are its graphics adequate? Yes. Are they great HD craziness? No.

Is the game more fun than almost any other game out there? Yes.

Buy the game that is the most enjoyable.

Plaisio doesn't have it on ther site so I guess it's not out. They are usualy up to date with game release info.

Are you guys kidding me????

Get real and quit being fanboys and sheep enthusiasts. Compared to GeOW, Uncharted, Unreal, SMG is literally a 4 on such a scale. Do not....get this mistaken.

HDR...NO.
Textures...Minimal
Poly Count...Last gen.

Get real fanboys. You are nowhere close.

Awww, why are you so mad? :( I own all the systems. SMG is gorgeous, bud.

What the hell is SMG?

Stop with the acronyms!!!

Again, anybody that is honest and played both these games on the same HDTV would admit only seeing a marginal difference.

The fact that you are so defensive leads me to believe that you are the fanboy.

It's being compared ARTISTICALLY not graphically.

/thread.

let me make this infintely clear for u

IF RACHET clank graphics = 7.5 on the ps3

MARIO GALAXY graphics = 2.5 on the ps3

rachet looks like a pixar movie with realisitic fur textures awesome robots an explosions it felt like i was watchin that big pixar movie with robots or with the aniamls just amazin

galaxygraphicslook like a cheap cartoon show totally bad if super mario galaxy was a movie or anythin irt would have been epic failure compared to pixar or rachet an clank an would have bombed luckiy mario is well known in teh gamin world an doesnt need good grfx at all to get 9.5's out of 10 or sell good unlike other franchises that hhave to poor tons of cash an there heart an souls into game like rachet to get altealst a 7.5

Graphically? Nowhere close, it looks like a really good XBox game. On my HDTV it's very blurry, jaggedy, etc. It's just nowwhere anywhere near Gears, or any of the good looking 360 or PS3 games. Anyone who says otherwise is being dishonest. So, on the technical scale it's very, very low compared to the best looking games on the 360 (however, it is excellent looking in the artistic department.)

HOWEVER, graphics aren't what the game is about.

It would've been nice to have better graphics and HD output, but the game still kicks ass regardless.

What the hell is SMG?

Stop with the acronyms!!!

Super Mario Galaxy.

ive played rachet an clank an seen galaxy an the two aren't even in the same league graphically or aestethically

rachet an clank is near perfection on everything in galaxy u can see how fake stuff looks in clank all the backgrounds an places look just unbelievable in galaxy i the back grounds look fuzzy na fake an mario has polygons all over his body an clank looks crisp an so do all its backgrounds an layouts

i actually agree (have both also)

obhiously R&C is far superior in every area on the technical side. however despite that....it looks, for lack of a better word, standard. theres very little thats remarkable about it when i just look at it. the city in the first level got an "ooo perty" but after that its just meh. ratchet looks kewl mind.

theres just something about galaxies artistic direction that really makes it appealing. from sphereical water worlds to donut shaped ice....its made me go wow alot more than ratchet.

how would i rate them? well galaxy, in comparison, would get a 2/10 for technical compared to a 10/10 for uncharted.

however just looking at the end product, imho it definately holds its own....7.5/10 v a 10/10 for uncharted

(note i wont bring crysis into this because thats just not fair).

8/10.
People should try it out for themselves, I found Galaxy to look absolutely amazing.
Even after playing Assassin's Creed for hours on.Sgt_Crow

It's how you look at it. Technically, they are nothing special. However, combined with an awesome art s*yle it makes it look really good for a Wii game.
