this is getting ridiculous.
They say it doesnt redefine the genre. It doesnt have to. as they say, this game is fresh, new and extremely fun. When they deduct points from games that dont redefine the genre, they mean games that are stale, dont try anything new, and use the same tried and tested formulas.
The fact that Mario Galaxy 2 feels completely fresh, has you getting 60 stars before they repeat things is outstanding. Read the whole review again and if you still have issues with the score then your the biased one. they clearly state why it gets that score. if you dont agree then perhaps you wait till you play the game yourself first before attacking them.
I personally feel that Edge magazine purposely deflate scores to gain the tough reviewer stance reputation. So to give a sequel to a game a 10 is fantastic in my book. stop whining and just enjoy the game when it comes out.
