| leatherhat said: As for nintendo being game critic proof, look at this for an example: Mario galaxy and the R&C future series. Two games out this generation for each one, and each one as similar to the previous games in the series. R&C gets accused of getting stale, and thats fair. Mario galaxy 2 gets labeled innovative and light years ahead of the first game. And its no different from Galaxy 1 then Crack in time is different from tools of destruction. |
Galaxy 2 = 4th full 3D Mario in 14 years
Crack in Time = 6th full R&C in 8 years
Also, did you actually play Galaxy 2 or read any reviews on it? It wasn't exactly lauded for it's originality, only it's superb execution and extreme polish. Something it's not exactly surprising Insomniac can't match when they're pumping out assembly line sequels every ~15 months (thank god they've finally gone indie and set longer cycles).
