Actually Metal Mario has the most polish.   Check out his SSB:M trophy.  It must have 20 layers of polish!!!!

But seriously, I think Metroid Prime has the most polish, hands down.  I still play that game ocassionally, mostly to drool over the graphics.  Almost every time I play it, I notice some new little graphical detail that I missed the first time I played it through.  MP also has killer gameplay.  I still love just jumping around and turning into the ball while boosting all over the place, even though I've logged in over 100 hours on the game.  MP truly is an amazing game.  

OFF TOPIC:

MP has to be the biggest sleeper hit of all time.  How could Metroid Prime NOT sell 4 million units by now??!?!  MP is definitely on my "Top 5 Games of All Time" list.  It's a sign of things to come in this industry IMO, and I don't like to think about it really.  My only peace of mind is that the forces that are trying to change the video game industry (in a bad way I might add) are probably going to be losing alot of money when the next video game industry slump occurs, if they already aren't losing money at this point (M$ and many third party developers are losing alot of money now).

LOL!!!  How could you think of something like that?!?!  Thats so funny in such a sick way, I can't help but laugh.  I can just imagine the game and it makes me laugh with a strangely warm feeling inside.  Perhaps that's Satan Himself possessing me to laugh as I imagine old people in wheel chairs jumping off of platforms and DYING!!!   Heheh....aaahhh...I'm going to hell for this post.

Using wind waker, where is the diff level for that? That game was built up for months and months and months, and as the months flew by i was getting excited, only to realise the game was a total peice of pi$$!l

You've lost all your credibility in my eyes by saying that.

Nintendo Gaming / Eternal Darkness - $14.99

« on: June 15, 2003, 10:34:15 AM »

This game definitely isn't for casual gamers.  You have to sit down and really get into the game and the story.  I found the combat system to be fairly straight foward though.  I actually ran through the game the first time using mostly swords and the occasional enchant spell or recover spell, so it's not that bad of a system.  The magic system is pretty involved in this game though, and I'm playing through all three runes a second time to try to get the hang of it this time around (I'm also playing through it again with no sanity, just to see all the effects).  I'd say the game as a whole is very involving and time consuming, but hey, if you're into that kind of game, then $15 is almost like stealing this game.
