I dunno. GI isn't to be trusted with it comes to Nintendo's E-rated franchises because they allow the appeal of the game to factor into the score: if it's kiddie, they flop it.

Gameinformer has some annoying reviews. If they dont like it that much, they really underscore the game. If the game is meant to be more caroonish and is E rated(papermario) they flop it. although they had superpapermario AAA. They give way to many games 9 or better. and the 10s please. They got 10x as many 10s as gamespot. Personally there articles are the best. other than that gameinformer sucks. there to easy or to tough. never in the middle.

is owned and published by GameStop Corp., the parent company of the video game retailer of the same name. Due to this, a large amount of promotion is done in-store, which has contributed heavily to its large subscription base.[4]

As of May 2007, 169 issues of Game Informer have been published."

wow my store owns it ahhhhhh!

it doesnt matter. it's a port of a Ps2 game that wasnt that good in the first place. It may be the best version but it's still a pretty crappy game

You know, it's possible that the reviewers there do not like the Wiimote.

What gives? Game Informer gave Zelda TP 10/10. They gave Super Paper Mario 9.5/10. What are you trying to prove with this post? That the Wii has crappy third-party games? Read their article about it. They love Wii games developed by Nintendo.

They often cite terrible controls as the thing making those games worse.

For example, they said Medal of Honor in the EDGE comparison: "the PS2 version is mediocre, but the Wii version is awful...controls..."

Heatseeker was graded down because of controls. Mortal Kombat was graded down because of controls. It's all the poorly implemented controls. Just wait for good third party games of the same caliber of the Wii games and you will start seeing the ratings go up.

Game Informer gave the Wii a A rating (the console) while it gave the PS3 a B- rating. Where is the substance to your post?

Zelda TP: 10/10. SPM: 9.5/10. Wii Console: A

They flopped those three items? They appear to love Wii games. Get out of here.

There is no consistency because Nintendo games are good while third-party games are bad. What's to understand? Game Informer loves Nintendo.
