Now that the first of Nintendos big 3 is AA instead of AAA...

what do you think the other two will recieve and why??

I think brawl will get AA and SMG will get AAA

The reason i think brawl will get AA is that its more of the same...just more stuff. Same look same mechanics, same feel. Not as big of a difference between SSBM and SSBB as between the N64 smash brothers and SSBM.

SMG will get AAA because it will be the best looking wii game.

Super Mario Galaxy - 9.0

Super Smash Bros. Brawl - tentatively 8.5, that's what I hyped it at first and I'm sticking by it even though I think it could easily score lower

I'm thinking SMG gets AAA 9.0, and SSBB will get 9.0 too if it has online, but 8.5 if it doesn't.

The reviewers don't care what SW hypes the game to be. They will review the game for what it is.

SMG - AAA

SSBB - AA

MP series is probably the most critically acclaimed besides zelda on the WII

if MP3 scored 8.5

i assume SSBB and SMG will score 8.0-8.5 as well

Brawl online=AAA

No online=AA

SMG=AAA

Care= empty.

Truth be told... if it doesn't get what I predict, it don't mean a thing. The other thing is... if WW can get AAA, anything's possible still. So.. hey BWii... look'n good.

I think Galaxy will be AAA.

It looks like it is one of the most innovative platformers in a while. And GS likes it when games change things up.

Brawl online=AAA

No online=AA

SMG=AAA

Care= empty.

do you really think so. Gamespot seem to like to dock points for lack of originality especially for wii titles....

i think that SMG is pretty original....and did you read the IGN article about the secret levels they played that the werent allowed to....one being some sort of cookie, cake and icecream galaxy....man i can only imagine....thats pretty original...

ROFL that doesn't earn a AAA. The best looking Wii game is hardly better looking than the best Xbox (1) game. That might get it a 7.

I'm thinking SMG gets AAA 9.0, and SSBB will get 9.0 too if it has online, but 8.5 if it doesn't.

The reviewers don't care what SW hypes the game to be. They will review the game for what it is.

After the first review of the MP3 I am forced to lower my expectations not of SSBB or SMG but lower my expectations of Gamespot reviews of these and all other future games that come on the Wii or any other system, PC, or handheld. And I shall let no reviews effect my decision in the slightestweather I will purchase a game or not. I will get each of the big 3 because I play games because they are fun.

Brawl online=AAA

No online=AA

yoshi_64

Thats all there is too it.

I've been saying this for a while, but...

MP3 AA 8.5

Brawl AA 8.5

Galaxy AAA 9.5

AA. Im not hyping anything AAA on gamespot anymore. Anything can flop. Haziqonfire

Halo cant flop and neither can Advance wars games

I am not sure about SSBB now but SMG I don't doubt at allSynchro456

Yeah I think SMG will score AAA unless it is downgraded before its release like Red steel.:lol:

But SMG and SSBB I really want to do well because Im trying to convince my friend to buy a Wii so I won't have to.

The Big 3 will all be AA.ZeldaMaster32

You mean the Big 2.

Mario- 8 or 8.5

Brawl- 9 at the most. 7.5 minimum.

They're gonna take away points for it being too much like Super Mario 64.

I bet they're gonna give SMG and SSBB and 8-8.5 too.

Meteriod Prime 3 is still a AAA title even if GS didn't think so. EVERY ONE ELSE RATED IT AAA. GS reviewers can kiss my. umcommon

But those review sites overrate games and I was pissed because I would trust them and waste 50$ on garbage games. Now I only listen to gamespot and a few other review sites like Game trailers and even then. I play demos and analyze it and very cautious before I make the buy. Those review sites are indirectly causing you to waste money because their leading you to spend a lot of money on a high quality game when its not so high in quality.

Actually I was a full blooded Lemming last gen and I'm only half cow this gen.

the article i was talking about....

August 24, 2007 - Here at GC 2007 we were disappointed to find out Nintendo was showing the same build of Super Mario Galaxyit had on display at E3 this year. At least, it was the same build on the surface. The same four levels (Star Dust Galaxy, Prehistoric Piranha, Honey Bee Galaxy, and Gateway Galaxy) were officially playable in Nintendo's press lounge. However, someone tipped us off that at the title screen, a code could be implemented with the Wiimote that would unlock two new levels. Sure enough, after implementation we had unlocked Beach Bowl Galaxy and Cookie Factory Galaxy.

Fearing for our lives, we jumped into Cookie Factory as fast as we could, hoping Nintendo's PR handlers hadn't noticed. As you might expect, the level is made up of platforming over different types of chocolate, caramel, and mint. This was some of the most ****c platforming we've seen in Galaxy, yet. A trail led us through a tunnel where the ground was constantly moving and we had to proceed while maneuvering gaps and electric buzzers. Eventually we made it out into the open where a series of large cakes hovered in air. We made our way over the trail of desserts towards a large cake at the end -- but that was when a Nintendo representative came over and reset the Wii. We were warned that we would be removed from the press lounge if we were caught playing the "secret sixth level" again.

Although it was fleeting, it was great to see something new and we can report that the Cookie Factory level looks as good, if not better, than what we had already seen. This is one Wii game that can proudly stand next to the best-looking Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 games. Of course, we weren't done playing, so read on for updated impressions of the Star Dust Galaxy and Prehistoric Piranha levels."

No because I think GS is not neutral. Everyone has differente tastes but If a reviewer dont feel the game he will flop it instead of beeing neutral.

Though can you blame gamespot for how they've reviewed everything? Metroid prime 3 is just more of the same, and brawl is looking to be that way. Nintendo used to always evolve games in the past, but now all they do is rehash them in different games.

Example- we went from simple dungeon crawling in zelda, to rpg-ing in zelda 2. From zelda 2 we went to pretty complex dungion crawling in a link to the past. Then we go to ocarina, which brought everything to 3d. Wind waker had everything in a completely different stylized world with unique functions and gameplay. Twilight princess- basically ocarina with the technology of wind waker. Not a step ahead between wind waker and twilight princess eh?

And super smash brothers, is even worse. The first game basically only had a arcade mode, and melee had a quest mode. Not a big gameplay or innovated change. Brawl is really looking to do the same thing, without any controller innovation so far. Metroid prime has the same problem. It made the jump to 3d, and hasn't really changed at all since.

Simply putting everything on a new controller doesn't make it new again. Its like saying playing ridge racer 7 with analog control, and playing it with tilt control means its 2 completely different games in 1. Not true.

I would like to say that both games will be 9.0+, but after what just happened I might need to reassess this now. Gamespot seems to be much harsher now, even to the point of being anal about certain nitpicks. I guess it better overall, but still...

What really worries me is this whole "more of the same" mantra they seem to have picked up. Sequels, even vastly departed ones, will have a hard time getting high scores. (That said, Halo 3 is going to get a 9 on principle, I can feel it.)

SSBB: 8.5

SMG:8.0

I'm willing to be mildly suprised, really, Gamespot, suprise the pessimist. (please?)

what do you think the other two will recieve and why??

While I will admit to being a lemming, this is crap. The entire big three should be AAA.

first of all GAMESPOT is the only gaming website that gave Metroid prime 3 a AA, everything els was AAA so i consider mp3 a AAA title

as for galaxy and brawl, i predict they will also be AAA titles.

( how can you say you dont see a differince between brawl and melee , in terms of graphics brawl is 10 times better)

and galaxy also looks amazing.

^Fairly accurate prediction of what we can expect from Gamespot.^
