It's ISS2. I realised I had never played it yet after a month and a bit and decided to give it a go. It rules.
Now you can all come and tell me it's rubbish and I'm a disgrace to Nintendo like you always do.

That game is so fast, clever and fun!

I've scored loads of times where it hits the crossbar and then hits the goalie on the back and goes in!
My mates always moan that it's not possible!
But then last week while playing football in some hockey goals, my mate had a shot, hit the post, the goalie turned around, it smacked him in the face and went in!
Proves that it's always possible!
Apart from the long shots that the goalie just dives to the other side of the goal for!

So has Resident Evil.

That's because people tend to actually play the game and enjoy it based on it's merits.

Mario is just special. I doesn't matter if he's a fat plumber, a beefy sailor or whatever, it's all about the fantastic and innovative gameplay. Mario Sunshine may not be as huge a step on as people wanted, but it's still great, and better than 99% of the current games out there.
Also, i'd say that of all the Mario fans out there, most are probably way over 10 years old for the simple reason that many people (like myself) have grown up with the little guy over the past 15-20 years. So many of us gamers who have grown up with Mario and are now in our 20's, 30's etc, still love him.
