That's a point I think everyone has known for at least a year and a half.
They aren't giving the Wii a handicap, they're rating the games graphically in regards to what the system is capable of.Tylendal
I guess that kinda answers my question. Thanks.

Do you think Halo 3 wouldn't have scored as high if it was on the Wii? I feel that a lot of voters give the 360 and PS3 a handicap for their subpar controls in most genre.
There, do you see how rediculous that sounds?
Thats just my opinion. Good games, but hardly great games IMHO. I believe alot of critics give a handicap to the wii for hardware shortcomings. My question is do you think it would uphold its score if these games came out on either PS3 or 360, or would they be bogged down because of lack of next gen graphics. This thread isnt intented to flame wii fans, but just was curious to ask my hypothetical question. Please discuss, and as always, I respect everyones opinions.Coredog777
Nostalga is the key word. They are great games but as for your comment about them not being AAA, GS's scoring is crap. I never know what to expect when it comes to how they score a game and many times it contridicts itself.

Then why would they score any lower than they did on Wii?
I meant if it came out on the PS3 or 360 would the score be bogged down because the graphics werent up to snuff, saying that the game was as is when it came out hypothetically.

Um if Halo 3 came out on the wii it would be AAAA. Also, please try and be respectful.

but then the 360/ps3 version of galaxy would be marked down just as much, if not more so because of the lack of pointer and motion control.

You have to fully apply your hypothesis. If SMG or SSBB were on 360 or PS3 they'd be held to higher expectations for graphics, true - but they would have better graphics because of being, hypothetically, on a more powerful HD console.

SMG got GOTY..... So you need great graphics to have amazing gameplay do you? I must of missed that email
Yeah but It may not look as good as a 360/PS3, but I tell you what I have played quite a few games on the PS3/360 which have got great graphics, but the gameplay is nothing on SMG[QUOTE="Coredog777"][QUOTE="Iyethar"]Then why would they score any lower than they did on Wii?

agreed, I just think mostly that its a matter of opinion. I mean I have both games for the Wii, but I just dont find them up to par with PS3 or 360 games. I have issues with the graphics I guess.
I will give you the benefit of the doubt here, and assume that you are honestly wanting to debate this, and that you are not some sort of troll. Doing so, I will politely inform you that the subject has been done to death here and that every Wii owner is quite frankly sick of this being used as a contra Wii argument by trolls. So I would advise you to thread lightly, because people are going to eat you up for this.Arsuz
lol, thanks, I see that, well its just my opinion anyway, and what Do I matter. Thanks again, ill pick my debates better next time.

What I find funny is you'll see 1% of Wii owners use the Wii mote for this game......everyone will be using a standard controller. The idea that Wii is better because of controls is blown out of the water with SSBM. And it also seems Mario Kart is starting to look exactly the same. Wii (as I've said before) is only good for sports games where people like the idea of pretending they are the ones doing in the game. Aside from party games, everything else IMO plays better on a standard controller.

i got the same problem, and i wish i didn't. I cannot look at Wii games in the same light as 360 or ps3 games just because of graphics no matter how hard i try to look past it. It really is a shame cause i think brawl or galaxy would look phenomenal in HD.

Umm graphics would be alot better if it was on the ps3 or 360. The game is just fun as hell. I played it with my bro yesterday and it was a blast. I think it would still achieve a 9.5 here if it were on one of the other two consoles. Games aren't rated solely on graphics. They are rated on how fun they are too.

Somehow you left out the 2007 GOTY who fully uses the Wiimote... how interesting.

If Halo 3 was on the Wii just the way it is now, it would've gotten 7.0 max. I mean, the controls just fail compared to something like MP3.
I just expect more now I guess on the graphical side of things.

Did you just start gaming last gen? I've been gaming mostly on pc since the NES and I'm fine with the look of SMG and SSBB. they have a look that is appealing more from an artistic than technical aspect and it was the gameplay that hooked you. not the graphics.

I just cant deal with it, but then again, I am a graphics lover. The graphics on the wii remind me of the gamecube. IF thats what you like, that is great, just not my cup of tea.

That's a handicap my friend. Altering the Wii's scores because of its gimped hardware is definitely a handicap.
I think they would. Maybe not Galaxy cuz of no wiimote use but the level design, controls, atst*le and soundtrack are brilliant. Brawl has freakin addictive gameplay and so much great content.m_machine024
i agree, there's nothing like galaxy. revolutionary games that do well generally earn AAA. and if brawl was on the other consoles, there would be voice chat, leaderboard etc, added to an already addicting game. hell, if that was possible, it'll probably get multiplayer game of the year.
not to mention the amazing rendering complimented by the art style. i like the look o both games just as much as the games on my 360

Uhmmm...it is common knowledge that games for each system are rated based on the system itself. Games are NOT based on how good or bad they may be if they were on some OTHER console.

do you really think that a game like SMG would be much better or different with mario having more polys or having less jaggies? you'd have to be pretty superficial to think that i'd say.

No actaully Halo 3 would have scored the same on the Wii because it's score would be altered to make allowances for the Wii's gimped hardware. Come to think of it they probably make allowances for the Wii's gimmickie controls as well.

you honestly believe the Wii has failed? wow...just how blissful is your ignorance?
Not nearly as blissful as yours apparently
jeez i didnt mean to start a firestorm, i guess it all comes down to me not being satisfied with the graphics on the wii. I have both games because of my little cousin, but I just dont think they are so great like everyone makes them out to be. Galaxy won GOTY, and I respect that, but for me GALAXY OR BIOSHOCK, im taking Bioshock 10x's over.Coredog777
the fact that SMG won GOTY even though it had worse graphics technically than most 360 games just means how much quality it is. this would seem to indicate that it would get an AAA on any console since it did beat out those AAA's on other consoles. regardless of your own opinion.

GOTY differs depending on where you're looking. I've seen Call of Duty 4 win game of the year in far more places then SMG. The places where SMG won game of the year were obviously making allowances for the Wii's lackkuster hardware and gimmicky controls.

This is true. They would suffer if they weren't on the Wii. The Wii makes them better. That's why they're AAA. :)
Agreed though they may have got there on the XBLA part of 360 but no way - no how would the critics have not taken off 5 points out of 10 for many things the 360 & PS3 are EXPECTED to do where as the Wii is given a pass because it may be a new gen console as Nintendo itself has said but by no means is it comparable to the This gen console so it gets a pass.
Apples & Oranges ! :P
