Exactly, he's like the William Hung of video game reviewers. Who cares if he's a complete embarassment to your site, as long as people are talking about him!skip said:for guys who claim to not care about jeremy's reviews, you can't ****ing shut up about them.
Swordian said:You say that he is entitled to his opinion, but then say 1up would be more credible if they silenced him. You must be one of those people GI was thinking of when they scored Paper Mario.
ninge said:just wanted to say that i picked the game up yesterday and i love it. I have no idea who this guy is but ill be sure to pick up anything else he scores 6.5 in the future.
skip said:cool, because 6.5 means a good game.
Ravager61 said:Actually, even with 1ups weird scale, 6.5 would be slightly better than average.
Amir0x said:Yoshi's Island DS is fantastic. The graphics and music may not be as charming as the original, but everything else sure as hell is. Brilliant gameplay, with a slick difficulty curve and the type of hardcore gamer gameplay that DS actually needs. I'd personally give it a 9.0 - I like it more than New! Super Mario Bros., which I'd give like an 8.0.

I would have given NSMB a 9. There are certainly things I can knock it for like being too easy and short but it still had that oldschool Mario magic for me despite these shortcomings.
Amir0x said:I don't know if it can be up to the standard of the orginal - it being one of the greatest games of all time - but it sure does a hell of a job trying. It truly IS a worthy successor, which is all I could ask for. I had soooo much doubt going in, I hold Yoshi Island to a ridiculous standard. That this lived up to it - and on DS, a system I'm always in conflict with - should tell you just how great it is. Do not miss this, no matter what any review tells you... much less one from Jeremy Parish.

Kevin said:Sure it borrows a lot from the SNES version
