Now have I played every HD twin game on the market. But the sheer level design of both Galaxy games combined makes them an embarrassment of riches in quality. They are worth buying the Wii for, something no two-game set can do for any other console. Without making the OP too complicated, TL;DR (why?) they just whoop nearly all of the HD twins' games.

Agreed if you like platformers. If not, its just another game not better than anything.

It's true that SMG 2 is the greatest game this gen, but multiplats andPS3 exclusives are better than every other Wii game.

I agree. And I'd agree even if I wasn't a fan of the style of game the galaxy series strives to be. Bottom line is they are tight game design. Uncharted and halo are the only things that are remotely close to Nintendo game design. I will say it is a shame that they must be played in such a lower resolution. They still look great, but if they simply ran at 720p, at least?

I don't like platformers all that much and can't stand Mario so I'd be inclined to disagree.

In terms of pure creativity and polish, I'd say Super Mario Galaxy 2 pretty much trumps everything this gen. Super Mario Galaxy 1 on the other hand played it much too safe. In terms of pure level design, New Super Mario Bros. Wii trumps both and Rayman Origins is the best platformer this generation IMHO.

In any case, Nintendo's first party completely dominates 360's and PS3's, but the 3rd party titles on both HD systems give Nintendo a run for there money.

Brawl is still fun after 4 years...probably one of the few Wii games I come back and play. After finishing SMG, I really didn't look back to it.

I don't like the Super Mario Galaxy games at all so I'd take 90% of PS3 / 360 games over them.

1) SMG 1 and 2 are not better than 99% of PS Triple/Xbox 360 games

2) Even if they were (which they're not) then the Wii only has 2 really good games while the others are lackluster. I'd rather take the much higher number of quality games than 2 games that are really good.

3) lolnomultiplats

4) lol480p

Naw, Skyward Sword, Punch-Out!!, and New Super Mario Bros. Wii are all better than Mario Galaxy 2 and there are a bunch more Wii games that are better than Galaxy 1 :P

On that same note, there is only 3 games on my PS3 that I like more than Galaxy 2 as well: Batman Arkham City, Rayman Origins, and Super Street Fighter IV

These are all at the top of the gen to me

MGS4 is a great game but it's not even the best in its own series. It irks me how much undying praise it gets when it's a flawed game

This is actually true. How many games have come out in gaming history? for simplicity, although probably more lets say 10,000 games. Saying SMG1/2 is in the top 1% of games in any platform is like saying they are among the top 100 best games of all time, as some of the best games of this generation, I think every can agree that indeed, both SMG games would go in an all time top 100 list, thus factually making them better than 99% of games out there.

Arent games like GTA4, Gears of War, Mass effect 2, Halo 3, Batman AC, TES V: Skyrim, RDR and some others, more or less as highest rated as Uncharted 2 and MGS4?

You're talking about UNBALANCED MEtacritic where everything has different review scores by number, so you just threw your credibility out the window. Also 24 reviewers=/=world.
