The question is what standard to use. Mario Sunshine's story isn't great, to be sure, but I have the feeling that the story in most platformers isn't exactly Pulitzer Prize winning material either. It's not fair to compare Mario Sunshine's story to that of, say, Metal Gear Solid because the platform genre just doesn't lend itself to great stories.

Don't get me wrong. I think IGN's score is more or less right, and even the indivdual scores are okay. I just don't agree with some of their reasoning. Docking the presentation score because of the game's vacation theme is simply wrong.
Yeh what did everyone expect?

I mean how come Super Mario 64's presentation scored so well compared to SMS?



I sense some anti Mario attitude in his review though...........
