[QUOTE="Lyphe2k"][QUOTE="Tony-Harrison"][QUOTE="Lyphe2k"]Easy now, I didnt' even say 2D in my post lol. But yeah, it's 2D so it was never going to score AAAE. kthxbye.bobbetybob
Why can't 2D games be amazing? It's not as though the market is oversaturated with excellent 2D platformers.
When did I say it can't be amazing? When did I ever say that? I'm more than happy to hear this game is doing so well. It'll give me a reason to start playing my Wii again. I do plan to buy this game, given it gets positiv reviews.
BUT realistically, I don't see how someone could've expected an AAAE score from this game. It's 2D, as in, been done many, many, many times before. It's a step backwards, or possibly a step sideways. It's simple to see what does get AAAE score these days. What's expected now is characters with depth, powerful story, and rich, innovative gameplay. WarioLand may have just one of these factors. if Mario friggin' Galaxy didn't score AAAE (I'm talking about this site btw) then I don't expect this game to. Just because it's a 2D platformer on a console, doesn't wow me.
Galaxy did get AAA, are you sure the E isn't confusing you, that just means exclusive.
If he meant Super Paper Mario (8.8 would be 9.0 with the current rating system) then he's comparing apples with oranges. Super Paper Mario was an excellent RPG but not as great of a platformer game.
