Mario Galaxy 2 to become the highest rated game ever?

As I'm sure most of you know "Game Rankings" collates game scores from the main Magazines and Video Game websites. Currently Super Mario Galaxy 2 is tied with Ocarina of time at 97.57 (What are the chances).

Is game of the year decided already? It seems like it could well be.

goty isnt decided by rankings and plus uncharted 2 was on 97 pre-release so that could always go down.

Mario Galaxy 2 has been released for most wii owners

oh right i didnt think it was out
tbh i dont see how a mario game nowadays can be so amazing.

I laugh in the face of this.

Having just played it for a bit, i think its amazing so far, much better then the original. I only completed the first level to see how it is, and damn!

IGN gave it a 10/10.
I'd give it a 10/10 too.. it's amazing, best game available for the Wii.

It is now number one :D

As said it is out in most places now. Whilst you are right GotY isn't decided by rankings, it is decided by the exact same reviewers that gave Galaxy 2 pretty much 10/10 across the board. If Galaxy 1 was game of the year then I think this will be.

Why? That makes literally no sense. Why should Mario be worse than other games just because the character is old? Miyamoto is a gaming genius and keeps coming up with innovative new concepts to keep it fresh. Thats why it's rated so highly.

Why? Have you even played it? The fact remains it is currently the most critically acclaimed game in history.

Well, that's the thing, most critically acclaimed game in history. Not "the greatest game."

I want a Wii just for Mario Galaxy 1/2, so it probably says a lot about its quality.

EDIT: Not the greatest game of all time now. Or tied: http://www.gamerankings.com/browse.html

I never said it was? "Great" is all about opinion
