Mario was defiantly the winner for me, but there are a couple of other honorable mentions I’d like to put forward; Worms 3D even though it got bad reviews I loved it as much as its 2D counterparts (much more for single player), and populous, as the 3D version of that game was awesome.

In terms of utilising successfully the capabilities of 3D graphics : Mario

i would have to say it is a tie between mario and zelda because the transtion made 2 of the greatest games of all time. my worst2 would have to be sonic and starfox because the gameplay for the 3d games are horrible.

the nintendo wii will outsell the ps3 and the 360 combined by the end of 2008.

PS3 will out sell the 360 june 2010.

GOTY of 2008 is super smash brothers brawl.... hopefully.

END OF 08 PREDICTIONS:

Wii: 45 million xbox360: 26 million PS3: 19 million (made beginning of 08)

wii: 44 million xbox 360: 24 million PS3: 21 million (made june 08)

wii code: 8094-5344-2140-1400

brawl code: 5412-9565-3232

When was Starfox a 2D game?
