Mario sunshine is my favorite Mario 3D game. Its also the only mario game that appealed to me enough that i bought it.

3D world doesnt quite look as appealing to me as sunshine did. I like the open world hub to explore. I really liked the fludd aswell. Never got what the hate was. Its the kind of thing that is necessary to prevent cheap deaths due to depth of field perception issues.

I jus can't live in a world that people don't like Galaxy 2. I just can't......

And I think that controls, level design and overall gameplay was MUCH, much better in Galaxy. You said that 3D World is a solid game, and I can agree with that, but only that... :/

Each to their own I guess.

I don't agree.

I don't agree entirely. While 3D World is a fun game full of ideas that were executed pretty well, I don't think it's better than the first Galaxy game. Maybe it's better than the second one though.

Are you high or just really stupid?

I'd put it below 64 and Galaxy 1, but above Sunshine and Galaxy 2 (Galaxy 2 just did not blow me away quite as much as others).

It's a hard point-to-point comparison, though. The galaxy games, 64 and Sunshine, and 3D Land/World are each almost of their own breed.

Comments like that are generally not received well here, even in jest.

I'd disagree; the controls lacked the tightness I expect from Mario, the monotonous tropical setting got old fast, the level designs lacked their usual genius, the music was garish and mediocre... about the only positive thing I have to say about it is that the water effects were stunning.

I liked the parkour style, and FLUDD really added to that with the bonus nozzles. Getting from A to B and really exploring was *fun* in that game, so it really tapped out the "exploration" side that Super Mario 64 set out. I'll agree that the setting didn't feel "right" for a Mario game though. Not because of the tropical theme, but because they were trying to make it feel almost "real", as far as the Mario World can be, anyway. Locations were like a plausible cartoon world, while Mario level design has always been utilitarian to some degree.
