smg2 is the better game since it got a 10 years after mgs4. requierment for a 10 increase in time (according to a gamespot reviewer's commetn on singularity.)
tho it all depends on taste for me mgs seems to be a better game than mario 2, imo u cant even compare the 2 they are worlds apart
SMG2 is the game of the gen. MGS4 is stillso great in every way though. MGS4's story is great, although it could have been told in half the time. That would have been appreciated.
they are the some of the best games
my list of best games is up to 20 so far this gen w even more runner ups
most are on wii and ps3 s upcoming line up some are from 360s early years,
smg2 mgs 4 gta iv saints row 2 nsmb wii test drive unlimite dead rising condemned pdxbla etc for out already
lookin to be awsome -
dkc4
goldeneye007
driver5 twisted metal gt5 nfs hot pursuit 3 kirby epic yarn metroid other m maxpayne 3 starfox64 3ds etc
To put it simply:
SMG2 will be remembered as one of the greatest games this gen.
MGS4 will be remembered as one of the greatest games of all time.

You really think so? lol... No, MGS4 is more realistic than SMG2, history tells us that... surprise, the artistic games age much better than their realistic counterparts.
Uncharted 2 is going to look like crap in 10 years, while stuff like Zelda WW and SMG will age much better.
And that is just graphics, I'm willing to bet that the gameplay is going to age better aswell. Compare it with SMB3 on NES, there are only a few modern 2D platformers that are on par with the controls in that game, most of them are from Nintendo ofc
Lol i like that part when he poops on him self and you see the doo doo on hes buttno idiotic poop jokes in smg so it wins

Games are remembered for how great they were in their time. Not how well they aged. OoT aged pretty bad, same with Goldeneye yet people still consider them some of the best games they ever played.
Neither are the best games this gen, imo. But SMG2 having spent time with it. MGS4 has terrible writing. No other game could get away with that.

I didn't care for SM64 or Sunshine. I don't even really care for the 2D Mario games. Yet, apparently the reason I love Super Mario Galaxy 1&2, is because of my nostalgia of the other games :lol:
Dude ratings or not. Mgs4 isn't a jaw dropping experience that shows the farthest we've gotten in terms of technicality in console gaming. Mgs4 was a game that made reviewers ask if they could break the 10 limit. MGS4 to date is still the most polished, detailed, wellcrafted game out there.[QUOTE="AmayaPapaya"][QUOTE="coltgames"]if u played mario on n64 then you have played every mario game because there is nothing different nintendo gets away with it because of nostalgiawasted_wisdom

You should be on stage, dude. MGS4, the best game ever. HA! Priceless.i dont count GTAIV because its on ps3 and xbox360
louisfoxton
That doesn't make any sense. :lol: So it doesn't count as one of the best games this gen because... it's on two consoles.
[QUOTE="Ringx55"]MGS4, it actually has a story /threadAAllxxjjnnThat's shoved down your throat in the worst way possible for a video game.
Indeed.
It's neck and neck with Final Fantasy XIII in the competition for the Oh Christ I Wish I Didn't Have to Deal With This Tripe: Achievement in Storytelling Award this gen.
IMO.
well we figure your criteria is that they are rated 10/10. If not then why those two games???Why are we talking about GTAIV its SMG2 VS MGS4 Nothing else
louisfoxton
Leaving GTA out of a 10/10 discussion is a bit opininated. Why is it left out? Cus you happen to not like it?
and also that SMG2 >> GTA4 because standards for gaming increase over time (PDZ is proof)GunSmith1_basicLol funny guy. Iam still waiting for the day you sheep will name a good nintendo game that doesn't involve Mario or Zelda or the other over-milked titles. Oh and MGS4, Uncharted 2, Heavy Rain and Killzone 2 own everything on the Wii. And the fact that you can't disagree without mentioning Mario is sad imo.

smg2. i wanted to hurt myself by the end of act 2 in mgs4. thats how bad the writing, dialogue and voice acting was.

And the fact that you can't disagree without mentioning Mario is sad imo. mad cause Nintendo's "over-milked" franchises kill everything that comes out today? So sad, i know. Ok first of all, no it doesn't. Second of all the overmilked franchise is one of the few good games you can name from nintendo. I know. I know. You've got NoMoreHeroes and Metroid(which is the only ame on the ninendo plat I acknowledge). Dude where were you when the ps3 was getting games like MGS4 Uncharted 2 Heavy Rain Killzone 2 Resistance 2 ----Resistance had tons of gameplay and not a good story. That's what you should be comparing your smg to. Heavenly Sword Demons souls Little big planet Modnation Racers Motorstorm Gt5p and Gt5 Warhawk God of War 3. And that doesn't even include multiplats.
For some reason, I feel guilty when comparing these 2 games. It's basically a stealth game versus a platformer game. There's not really much to compare and contrast. The only trait in common is that they received a 10 on Gamespot. Other than that, it is just which game the person enjoyed more, granted they played both to make that decision.
To stay on topic, I guess I would have to go with Super Mario Galaxy 2 because the gameplay lasted much longer than Metal Gear Solid 4. I do not have anything against Metal Gear Solid 4, but to me, the game felt like it was forcing itself on me. I think Metal Gear Solid 4 is alright, but not fantastically superb.
I catch your drift. In order to get a 10 on GameSpot, the title of a game must consist of the letters G, M, and S when put into an acronym and it must also have a number after said acronym. Brilliant.This is what I take from this thread: mind = blown, SMG2 and MGS4 both scored a 10/10 and share the same letters (and have a number) in their acronyms.

M=M

4>2
SMG and MGS balance each other out, but MGS4 beats SMG2 by a factor of 2.
mario games don't even have writing. how many games can get away with that?Neither are the best games this gen, imo. But SMG2 having spent time with it. MGS4 has terrible writing. No other game could get away with that.

I thought both were extremely overrated and as games I didn't enjoy them as much. They both had a been there done that feeling. The improvment in productions values was only a small bonus.

The story isn't confusing, it's just poorly written. Maybe they could just make Mario travel through time. I'm sure Nintendo will deliver.
