Super Mario Galaxy, better than SM64?
Founder | 10:19 PM on 11.13.2007 3 comments


Super Mario Galaxy is amazing, there's no doubt in that, but is it really better than Super Mario 64? There's no doubt SMG was designed around Super Mario 64 (Obviously it's a Mario Game, but the way the levels are laid out such as go to a level, choose a star and also all the various homages). The real question is not how awesome they both are, but which one is awesome-er? I mean usually newer is better, but Super Mario 64 was the first 3D game I ever played, it raised the gaming bar forever. I don't feel SMG is doing that, but I do feel like it's providing me with a fun experience and a warm fuzzy memory of playing Super Mario 64 for the first time. I would love to call them equal, but I think nothing can beat the original.


Also, what's up with Princess Peaches emo-haircut-donning-nightgown-wearing clone?

I didn't see that you wrote a post on the exact same thing I just did. Sorries.

But since mine was actually, well... worked on, and yours seems more like a forums post, I sort of thing mine deserves to live more than yours.

I'm at 18 stars right now, so I can't really 'call' which one I feel is the better game just yet. But so far, the game play and level design certainly feels more tight and focused. There's a good mix of open and linear levels so far. Plus, I really noticed how amazing the camera is in Galaxy. Especially since I played Super Mario 64 while I was waiting for Galaxy.
