Both Galaxy games are ranked too high. Neither of them is even the top 3D Mario game in my opinion. That honor would go to Super Mario 64.

I respectfully disagree. While Mario 64 was a great first step into the 3D relm by the beloved mascot, I think Galaxy polished the formula to near perfection.

Sunshine gave us a glimpse of that greatness in the secret levels. But Galaxy delivered that kind of level design greatness and superbly tight controls throughout the entire game.

...and I respectfully disagree with your disagreement.  :p  

Mario 64 encouraged you to explore an entire world and was new to the Mario franchise while the Galaxy games have deviated from this formula and made it more abou gettign from point A to point B like the 2D games.  Don't get me wrong, I love the Galaxy games, but prefer the N64 game.

But to me, platformers have always been more about reflexes and careful movements than exploration. Galaxy examplifies this much more than 64.
