Luke's 2009 Game of the Year Awards
Luke gives us his thoughts on the best titles that were released in 2009 on all platforms.
Wii
Game of the Year: New Super Mario Bros. Wii
New Super Mario Bros Wii is the first 2D Mario game on home consoles since the SNES. The game feels like the 2D Mario games found on the NES and SNES and the multiplayer component is sublime. The game’s solid challenge level and the return of the Koopa Kids were pleasant surprises. All in all, the game is pure fun especially with a group of friends.
Runner-Up: Muramasa: The Demon Blade
VanillaWare's latest 2D action title is magnificent. With beautiful graphics, a moving music score inspired by traditional Japanese music along with fluid and engaging combat mechanics, this title is a must have for fans of 2D action titles.
