I didn't notice 'til today, but Uncharted has a 9.0 on graphics, and Mario Galaxy has a 9.5.

That's just horrible, I don't really care if it's the Wii, Mario Galaxy does not deserve over a 9 on graphics. ANd Uncharted should have gotten 9.5/10 on graphics.

They're on different systems with different power.

A 9 on the PS3 would be like a 12 on the Wii.

Still doesn't matter. You aren't comparing Super Mario Galaxy to games on the Wii, you're comparing them to all the games out.

As a reviewr you can't ignore what a console can and can't do. Wii graphics' scores would be in the 5's if every game was put up to a game like Crysis, ME, or Uncharted (I'm well aware Crysis kills the latter 2 games in the graphics dept.).

If the graphics are amazing for a Wii game based on what we have seen from the Wii so far then it deserves the score. If a PS3 game is an insult to what we know the PS3 can do then it doesn't deserve a higher just because it looks better than a Wii game but is mediocre by PS3 standards.

No, you aren't.

You are reviewing a WII game, so you deal with WII's capabilities, and compare them to how well other games on Wii perform. Kind of like how PC has a different standard.

The graphics had technical problems... obviously they are going to mark it down. Mario Galaxy is by far the best looking Wii-game... duh its going to get a high score.

Then Uncharted should get a 7 or 7.5 because it looks like crap compared to Crysis.

I don't know what you are talking about. The graphics for Uncharted are amazing and they got a 9.0, the graphics for SMG are simply stunning graphics for the Wii.

So, by your logic Phantom Hourglass should get a 1 in graphics because it's nowhere near as good as Crysis. Wow, this is silly.

Uncharted's graphics are a 7 compared to Crysis? LOL, no.

Anyway, A PC/Console comparison is NOT the same as a Console/Console comparison.

Why? No matter what your answer is, it's all going to boil down to different standards. And you cannot say the standards for the Wii are the same as for the more powerful 360 and PS3. So thank you for proving our point.

No it isn't it isn't photo realistic at all. Not even crysis is but it is far ahead of any other game and is closing the gap fast on photo realism.

graphics include artstyle, don't they? and SMG's art design/style is some of the best around.

Plus; technical scores must be considered with respect to their system.. why is this not common knowledge?

I find it funny that people are actually trying to argue that Mario Galaxy actually deserved a 9.5 when Uncharted got a 9. It's stupid, and there's really no reason for me to go on in here because the people I'm talking to have 0 idea what they're talking about.

I can't really tell if you're being serious or just trolling. However, reviews and scores are based upon individual console standards. The graphics for a Wii game are judged based upon the Wii's hardware capability and the Wii's other games. Do you understand?
