He critiscised the gameplay for being too boring to do.
The grpahics for being below standard
And the controls rubbish when you bounce off walls.

Mario has always and will always be the king of platform games, many games have tryed to beat him but it's just the Nintendo touches that make him stick out from the crowd. I'm almost soiling myself in anticipation to this game and I wont be dissapointed, it's an update of Mario 64 which is one of my favourite games ever, I can't wait.
Did that make sense?

That's exactly what I was afraid of - nice to look at and move around but little to actually interest you in the game. I'll probably still get it hough, maybe take it back if it's really not working for me.
