It's too xxxtreme.

Kusagari said:No, it's slang for a mediocre 2D Mario platformer that felt like Sega's lame attempt at capturing the magic of SMB1-3.
Yes Boss! said:Pretty much this. Best game on the PS3, easily, and contender for GOTY but that does not mean it is anywhere near perfect. My only complaint is that it might be a little too guided (more apparent in successive playthroughs). But still one of the best gaming experiences in a long while.

EDIT: Wow, left this sitting open for a few minutes and my stupid attempt at humor was beat by 50 posts.
Remember: Subjective.theluma said:Hardly....so now a 2D Mario game has to be stupidly hard to be good? What exactly was wrong with NSMB, apart from it being possible to complete?
Jesus Christ, if you ask me, NSMB is a helluva lot better than SMB3 or 2, in terms of actual level design. 1 and World are still the best though.
EatChildren said:Maybe it's a case of a game they felt would have been better as a sequel to NSMB DS, on the same platform.

Kusagari said:I think you might be the only person on the planet who considers NSMB better than 3.

No, its was a review. What YOU wanted would be a description. They didn't spoil anything and they gave their opinions on the game. And Edge reviews don't go into specific description of each element of the game. Just look at the Forza review.
You either don't know what a good review is, or you've never read anything from Edge before.

The reason it got a 10 is the same reason Bungie is listed under Special Thanks at the end of Uncharted 2. They did some really awesome things with its community features that a lot of developers have since learned from and emulated.Crewnh said:Halo 3 got a 10 at Edge? Seriously? That's surprising.
~Devil Trigger~ said:is there any point of gaming mags/websites "reviewing" fighting games?
I see what you mean. It's been a while since Halo 3 came out so I totally forgot about all the stuff it did.Firestorm said:The reason it got a 10 is the same reason Bungie is listed under Special Thanks at the end of Uncharted 2.

darkwings said:wow NSMB Wii a 7. And this is Nintendos holiday killerapp.
obonicus said:Why do you think that? They do score some big-name games lower, but I don't know if that's sensible or just curmudgeonly.
theluma said:As one always says, a 7 from EDGE is high 8s from everyone else.
DennisK4 said:Finally someone gives Borderlands the right score instead of swallowing the hype :lol

AgentOtaku said:Operation Flashpoint score does not compute
Bought it on PC ...it's a fucking mess in my honest opinion
There ya go.Wikipedia said:Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising (often incorrectly referred to as Operation Flashpoint 2 or OPF2) is a first person tactical military game for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 developed by British game developer Codemasters

By Edge scoring, I thought NSMB DS was a 6. A 7 seems about right although they did give the last one an 8 apparently.Baiano19 said:What did they said about NSMB? I expect at least an 8...
I was holding on Mario & Luigi 3, but I think I'll get it.

painey said:seem pretty good scores this month, but what did Uncharted 2 have to do to earn a 10? I can't think of how they could have improved it.
