SMG took longer to make, it had a larger development budget, it had a larger marketing budget, it is more innovative, it has a better art direction, it has better music, it has a higher rating, it is a console seller, and it will sell 5 times as many copies.


No it didnt have more innovation, no it didnt have better art, no it doesnt have better music/sound

those are your opinions, personally galaxy is danm well an awsome game, but it doesnt blow bioshock away at all, i would put the two on par

 So you have your opinions and I have mine.  I notice you didn't question the 5 times better sales opinion :) 

 

Lol

I guess halo is the greatest game everz since it has massive sales according to your standards

 



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B   

Proud supporter of all 3 console companys

Proud owner of 360wii and DS/psp              

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

When playing Bioshock I was like "Oh cool", when playing SMG I was like "Wow man".

Take from that what you will people.



Super Mario Galaxy wins by default because it got a higher rating on Game Rankings and Metacritic. Done.



MGS >> Bioshock !!!

No. It is not for children. It is rated "E" for "Everyone," no "C" for "Children." You have not played the game. You assume that it is childish, because you are either a Sony fan boy, or a Microsoft fan boy, and you do not like the Wii, and you do not like Mario. You should not make such an incorrect, universal statement on some thing as grand as Mario. Besides, a game is nothing but lights, projecting off a screen, and sound, therefore, any "child" factor is simply imaginary. Grow up, stop dismissing masterpieces, for such ridiculous nonesense, and perhaps, widen your appeal in the gaming world.

Probably Bioshock because it's a (technically) new IP. Personally I consider Galaxy a better game overall, but you know any Mario game will live up to the standard of the revolutionary Mario 64.


Oh really? What about Sunshine? Wasn't that game slammed for not being on par with Super Mario 64? Think before you post!

Don't worry, I've got a sarcasm detector.


It was not slammed!!! It was practically on par with Super Mario 64!!!

A difference of two points... Come on... Seriously... Every single good game has been "slammed" by someone that does not know what they are talking about. Super Mario Sunshine was only slammed by the inexperienced. If you truly knew Super Mario Sunshine, you would know that it's a masterpiece. I don't care about your opinions. Universally, the game was critically acclaimed. If it sucked, it would not have recieved 92 on Metacritic, or Game Rankings. If it sucked, it would have recieved 76, or 79, or something... Not 92!

 Well, sales are a factor to consider.  But I think (and this is off the top of my head) 1-2 dozen Nintendo published games have sold more than Halo.  SMG will also beat Halo in sales.  Do you think Halo 3 will beat Halo and/or Halo 2?

It doesn't deserve to.



BioShock is an amazing game, truly an outstanding experience and by far the best 360 game.

HOWEVER, this has been an excellent year and I believe that The Orange Box is better then BioShock by a little bit and of course, Super Mario Galaxy is better then them both...I personally believe it to be the best game ever made

The true order:

1. Super Mario Galaxy (10)

2. The Orange Box (9.9)

3. BioShock (9.7) 



Top 3 favorite games: Super Mario Galaxy, The Sims 2 (PC), The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

Bioshock was a fine game. Can't say I'm a real fan of SMG, it was fun regardless.

For me, it'd be a tie; they're both good games in my book but I can't tell which is better.
