NSMB Wii got what it deserves. I'm still adamant in my belief that it could've been much, much, more and is overall unimpressive.

A 6 for Borderlands, though? why?

I'm guessing you've played it o_O

Maybe because they're two completely different games?

Tag: Became a freaking mod and a complete douche, coincidentally, at the same time.

EDGE is one of the most inconsistant reviewers on the planet.

OKAY, BEFORE THE INTERNET EXPLODES:

An Edge 7 is equal to a normal reviewer's 8.5. A normal reviewer's 7 is equal to an Edge 5.

So, with that in mind, good reviews all around, especially for Forza and Uncharted: Edge doesn't give out 9s often.

Borderlands 6. Yikes. I can see why they'd score it that way based of their tastes though.

An Edge 6 would be roughly 7.5-8 from any other reviewer.

To reiterate: A 7 from Edge is not a bad score!

Or maybe it's because a lot of features from the DS version are present in the Wii. Or innovation is lacking. I don't think that the NSMBWii will be on par quality wise with SMG, not even close.
