Xbox 360 Woes

Oh Xbox360, how your days are sad. I've had you for 2 months now and already I'm thinking of selling you. Should have known better being a Nintendo guy to go and buy a console that I wanted for one game (Forza Motorsport 2). Well OK, maybe I was hooked to Viva Pinata for a good long time. But now Mr. Wii has come along with Metroid Prime 3 and Super Mario Galaxy, are your days numbered? It seems so. The things holding me back at the moment:
  • Tiger Woods 2008
  • Pro Evolution Soccer 2008
  • The Orange Box
  • Project Gotham Racing 4
Is that enough reason for me to cash you in for my £300 back or not? Other than that...can't really see a reason to keep on playing...especially with Mario & Zelda calling me...

Super Mario Galaxy Reviews


So, Super Mario Galaxy is now slotted firmly in my Wii. It has risen the metacritic charts to become the first game in nine years to topple the mighty Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time with a 98 average so far...

GamePro: 10/10
Eurogamer: 10/10
G4TV: 10/10
Gametrailers: 98%
Gamesmaster: 97%
IGN: 97%
1UP: 95%

Needless to say, it is not a disappointment in any way, (only 15 stars in!) and I'm pleased to say it is keeping me from my university studies. Woohoo! Long Live the Mario.
