Hyped AAA, which means this game is considered a flop.

Keep it here.

It seems strange though. GS did 4 previews on this. A video preview AND a freaking 4 hour gameplay segment. They were basically saying it was already AAA.

Gamespot wasted everyone's and their own time with how they previewed and hyped this game I feel. They spent all that time and effort playing the game and hyping it only to give it this score. Not that it's a bad score however it's pure crap I feel compared to all the time and effort they spent on it. Outside of their news section I doubt I'm going to give a care about what they have to say anymore in their reviews and previews. If they knew they were going to give this score, and they had to as they played the game a lot, then they should not have spent so much damn time on it.

I'm a sheep, and I admit that the game flopped because it was hyped AAA by the majority. I'm also owned as well cause I hyped it AAA, but I also think Gamespot self owned themselves as well. I mean seriously. They did 4 previews, a video preview, a 4 hour marathon, and even called it the best Wii game to date, yet it only scores an 8.8 where WarioWare scores a 9.1

It is truely pathetic when a piece of **** like PDZ can score AAA, but games like RFOM, Zelda TP, and now Super Paper Mario that are much better can't make AAA. I'm really beginning to wonder what Gamespot wants in a game. But the score is in no way going to keep me from buying and enjoying the hell out of Super Paper Mario.

Gamespot has just self-owned itself, bringing along every sheep who hyped it AAA. But still, you've got to laugh at the 8.8. Could they have given it a more ironic score?

Super Paper Mario is a big game, and Gamespot probably had some extra time to make some more in-depth previews, so they probably just decided to preview Super Paper Mario. Gamespot doesn't "know" that they're going to give the game an 8.8. Ricardo Torres, the reviewer of this game, must first play the game, assess a score based on facts and opinion, send it to get approved/fact checked, then have it posted up on the site. Just because a game didn't receive a 9+ score doesn't mean it isn't worthy of an in-depth preview.

So are you suggesting that Nintendo should make a Legend of Zelda game as Dark Link the main character? :P

Strangely Zelda was a time where I was right. You can't trust what GS editors say you have to look at their eyes. Their eyes tell all. :P

I personally think people should stop with the "hype" game. It gets annoying when people disregard fantastic games as "flops," just because they scored a few points lower than what the other fanboys were saying. >_>
