Super Mario Galaxy 2 Gets 97% In ONM


America is just weeks away from receiving "Super Mario Galaxy 2", this year's most anticipated Nintendo Wii game- due to it being the sequel of the console's most popular effort yet, and as their release date of May 23rd draws ever closer, and the UK's soon-after date of June the 11th looms, gaming sites everywhere have had the chance to play through the final version of the game, Yoshi; Luigi; 2D and all! The United Kingdom's Official Nintendo Magazine is one of these lucky sites, and has published the latest issue of their mag with the overall score they have awarded "Galaxy 2": 97%. This high score places the newest instalment in the Mario saga amongst the Wii's top efforts, with no games so far eclipsing this score and only the original "Galaxy" and "The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess" (although due to ONM's extreme dislike of its lack of voice acting and recognition of its flaws, whether the latter's score should remain the same today is up to debate) receiving 97% also. Edge (a games website and magazine) have also praised "Galaxy 2", with a 10/10 score (only previously awarded to "Galaxy" and some great efforts in the 1990s). What does all this mean for Wii owners? Put simply, "Super Mario Galaxy 2" is a game which simply deserves to be owned by all, and should justify (along with "Metroid Prime Trilogy"; "Twilight Princess"; "Galaxy 1" and "New Super Mario Bros Wii") the purchase of the console for anyone silly enough not to own a Wii yet!
