Artistically? You might have an argument.

Technically? Run. You're on your way to pain. And ownage.

Well, for one thing, paying for it in advance still counts as buying it.

Hahaha, no. It has art going for it, that's it. Play Call of Duty 4 on an HDTV and try telling me it looks worse than Mario.

Wow, people are over rating this game so much. i mean I can't talk about the gameplay or anything, but the graphics in that game are NOT better than Crysis. They're very creative and unique... but not Crysis.

I wish people would stop comparing this to Crysis.

Crysis has way better realistic graphics, but Mario is cartoony and it really has a great art style.

It won't look good at all on my 60 inch HDTV :(

But for a game like Mario I can take it, there always so fun.

Ok I see what you're saying, then compare it to Call of Duty 4, resident Evil 5, Final Fantasy 13, Ratchet and Clank FTOD, Mass Effect, Halo 3, Gears of War, etc... I just used Crysis because it's always been used to compare "next gen" Graphics, Physics, w/e. The point is, just because Gamespot gave it an excellent score doesn't mean it's the greatest looking game this gen, and it seems like too many people are saying that.

Crysis and Mario Galaxy are completely incomparable, wtf. One is going for technical brilliance in realistic settings (well, before everything gets frozen and you hop on an alien ship), and the other is going for artistic brilliance with limited hardware.

By the way, for anyone who thinks that Crysis is all technical/no art, the frozen island and especially the interior of the alien ship are absolutely gorgeous on an artistic level.

Artistically, maybe. I really liked the character designs for Heavenly Sword and the atmosphere for Bioshock though. I'll have to play Mario Galaxy first.

SMG wouldn't even be the best looking game last gen, artistically or otherwise, much less this gen. Accept your ownage. I give it all the props in the world for scoring 9.5 on GS. That's huge. But best looking...hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

from an artisitc standpoint the game does look very good.

As for crysis.. i will argue that it doesnt have as much shine and polish and stand out as much, but it does look great.. plus, nobody can play crysis because the game sucks up any hardware and still runs like garbage, so crysis is a waste until another year.

Yet, there are better looking games than mario galaxy technically.. mainly on 360.

Your 8800GTX will run Crysis at high/very high pretty freakin well and it'll look better than anything else. Trust me.

No, Gamespot talks about the gameplay extensively. It's not overrated, your just in denial. Sorry.

you've got to be insane no offense but better then crysis wow just wow i think somehting is seriously wrong with your eyes are you legally blindProtossRushX
He said console not PC, but it is just as ridiculous. It doesnt even surpass any of the other games on the PS3 or 360. Hell God of War II on the PS2 looks just as good as SMG.

You should have said "Super Mario Galaxy does play better than any console game." Then they wouldn't have even posted and this would have fell off the first page.

you know, I don't understand why people say that Crysis' art style sux. So what they are saying is, Mother natures art style sux because Crysis is the most realistic looking game i have seen.

The Artstyle in Super Mario Galaxy is too generic compared to Okami,ICO and SOTC
