2007 - The best gaming year ever

Wii Feature | Super Mario Galaxy

20th Dec, 2007 Gaming is an up and down experience. Some years cram top quality titles into our every orifice until were bursting with videogame joy and have excess polygons dripping messily out of our ears, while some other years… Well, some other years are 1983. In 2007 though, weve had a very good year indeed. A scarily good year in fact. One which has provided us so much brilliance on every format that its a genuine worry that the laws of karmic balance will soon bring us a plague ...

Super Mario Galaxy: One month on

Wii Feature | Super Mario Galaxy

Dec 10, 2007 Its not easy giving out scores like 10. Its hard to be sure youve got it right. Imagine it like Star Treks warp drive: as we gingerly wrench the score lever past the 9 mark, the ship starts shaking and rattling; the alarms wail; your crew members exchange worried looks, visibly wondering if this is really a good idea. But when we reviewed Super Mario Galaxy, we just knew. Its a kind of combination of the visuals, the sounds, the level design, the challenges, that Nintendo ...

Super Mario Galaxy - 120 Stars

Wii Feature | Super Mario Galaxy

Nov 21, 2007 You're undoubtedly one of the millions who're trying to collect all 120 stars in Mario Galaxy, and, just for you, we've spent hours collecting them all in one handy place. There's a video for each galaxy, each boss and all of the Luma galaxies that litter the hub area. We're assuming you can get the first Grand Star on your own. For your own reference, there are six kinds of stars: Power Stars (the most abundant) Grand Stars (from boss battles) Prankster Comets (traveling the ...

Why Super Mario Galaxy is a wake-up call for...

Wii Feature | Super Mario Galaxy

16th Nov 2007 Super Mario Galaxy is a near perfect game. If you dont already know that, then youll find out soon (And you will be making the effort to find out, wont you?). More than merely being an all round fantastic experience though, the game acts as a timely reminder of some elements of game design all too frequently missing now. It also points out a couple of new ones which should be taken note of immediately. Its not just the fact that Super Mario Galaxy marks both the return and ...

100 Deaths of Mario

Wii Feature | Super Mario Galaxy

If you have a thing for the grim and morbid, then you'll feel right at home as we've dug up 100 deaths of our beloved Mario. You should know, however, that these deaths do not make up every death Mario's succumbed to in the last 26 years. That would just be too much for us - the bereaved - to handle. Grab a hanky and ...

What the hell were we thinking?!?!

Wii Feature | Super Mario Galaxy

Chaos, mayhem, uproar and riots. That's what GamesRadar seems to have triggered with last week's feature, "The Ten Greatest Years in Videogame History ". We might as well have burned down the internet, for all the email and forum flaming we inspired. Some folks praised us, some wanted us crucified, and one called us "wankers", ignoring that the feature only covered the US market. Granted, we set ourselves up. We knew this feature was so vast, so subjective and so dependent upon reader ...

The ten greatest years in videogame history

Wii Feature | Super Mario Galaxy

Three weeks ago, our sibling site NextGen posted the article, "The Ten Greatest Years in Gaming." It was full of cool industry info, but the first thing we asked was, "So, the PlayStation was first designed as an add-on for the SNES. We get the irony, but what were we actually playing in 1993 that made it so great?" We checked it out. We made a huge list of the best games of the past 34 years, taped it to the wall, and fought for days about stuff like whether one Zelda is worth more than two ...

Box Art F'ups: Readers Revenge

Wii Feature | Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz

We made a half-assed attempt to disguise our last edition of box art buffonery as some kind of factory error. You called our bullshit, submitted your own, and turned an office full of staunch and humorless integre-nerds into braying gigglepusses. Nice work. If any of you still have any creative spark left send it to boxart@gameradar.com or post it in our forums. ...
