Forums - Nintendo - EDGE gives New Super Mario Bros Wii a 7/10

And this is reason No. 1254630 to not trust in game reviews anymore.

I Care not for EDGE reviews.(High scores or Low) . Their reviews are sporodic and random. I trust more, the views of IGN, which generally are fair, and unbias. So what EDGE is saying is NSMBwii is the same quality as Fallout 3. [ Going by EDGE Standards, or lack thereof ]



again with the 7.

I will probably enjoy this more than most of the fps's they gave 8+.

I have to point this out...once again..when game#1 gets 8 and game#2 gets 10 in to completely different genres, it does not mean G1<G2.



I would have been scared if Edge had given NSMB Wii a high score, Mario Kart they gave a 6, NSMB DS an 8, Wii Sports resort a 6, all games that were awesome and sold a ton, from edge you want low scores FTW

This matters to me so much. After all, what someone else says about a game influences my enjoyment of it.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I wonder if anyone already stated that edge uses a different scale than most video game magazines. 7 from them translates to 8.5 from other sites.

Move along people nothing to see here.



 

7 is not such a bad score but when you read their remarks quotes in the OP, I'm suprised they even scored it that high!!

I'm still adding this game to my collection.



Elaine: I will never understand people

Jerry: They're the worst.

of cause, they review ps3 and wii's games below average all the time, nothing new here lol



I boycotted Edge a long time ago.
