YAY!
And it rocks...
Fun, fun, fun all the way, I've only got a few shines cos I've been playing about a bit, the leaf boat and trying out wall jumping.
I would stay and say more, but this was just a quick break from it...

But typically quality means superior grade. Therefore saying a game is superior grade IS saying it is a good game.

Well some people acknowledge it, I don't. I like everything to be done properly. :)

But saying "this game is quality" is an acknowledged phrase for saying the game is very good. Where as "this game has graphics" is just obvious.

There's a big difference, for one this is Mario there hasn't been a single bad Mario adventure ever. Two, 99% of people have said it's superb, some even say it's one of the best games they've ever played. Three, did the Bruce Lee game really show any promise?
Well i can, if i am waiting for a game i am never dissappointed!

I never said it could be. My point was that just saying "quality" is not enough - there is good quality and bad quality. Quality on it's own would mean nothing in that context. It would be like saying "This game has graphics" - obviously it has graphics, but are they good or bad?

Explain how something that is bad can be of good quality?
