@lolcis, lol so u think NSMBWii will be better then Uncharted 2? roflroflrofl

Personal preferences aside, ROFL here is just wrong.  Uncharted generally scored in the high 80's, main series Mario Bros games....not sure there is one that was ever scored that low. 

I'm not saying U2 won't win GOTY but to say that NSMBW has no chance is silly and shortsighted given the heritage of the two franchises.

 

For a 2D platformer to win GOTY it'd have to be something entirely unique and amazing like LittleBigPlanet. NSMB Wii looks and plays identically to a DS game released 4 years ago. I'm sure it will win a few awards based on nostalgia and name alone, but realistically it doesn't stand much of a chance.

But for an action game that looks and plays like a game released 2 years ago it's ok?  They're both sequels... so isn't that sort of expected?
