High five!
2. Super Mario Galaxy 2
As I've said, SMG bettered SM64. What I wasn't expecting was for Nintendo to release the first ever direct sequel to a 3D Mario game and go another step further with my favourite game of this year, of this generation, and my second favourite game of all time.
When it was announced, critics thought it would be SMG1.5, but they could not have been more wrong. This game takes everything that was great from the first game, improves it, and then adds things on top, such as the reappearance of Yoshi, who is used far more effectively here than he was in Super Mario Sunshine. There are more ideas thrown into some five minute levels, never to be seen again, than there are in some entire games.
If you doubt me and want a second opinion of how great this game is, read this.
Finally, I challenge you, if you've not played this game, to play it from beginning to end, and try not to smile even once. You will fail.
