WTF They gave 4.0 for multiplayers! I can't stand it! This game is supposed to be for multiplayers that's awful!

I'm starting really to doubt about thei objectivity. And if you see Modern Warfare 2 reviews from players, they aren't satisfied with the game. New Super Mario Bros Wii got 9.0 from players while MW2 got 4.5

Eh, don't worry about it. Game reviewers tend to have a certain "check the boxes" mentality when it comes to games; they're looking for qualities X, Y, and Z, and will score you down if you don't do well in those categories. So I'm sure their reviews of the two games were honest. That said, they tend to look for different qualities than I do, so I'm not too fussed.

I can't believe us poor mistreated Aussies finally had a game released here first for a change!

The game is awesome. I'm a bit disappointed in the lack of a classic controller option but 2D Mario games are still the pinnacle of games IMO

 Where would you rate it in the pantheon, and why?

Hmmm tough question, SMW is still my favourite followed very very closely by 3. I'd say this sits behind 3, maybe just ahead of 1 and way up the list from 2.
