Ocarina of Time has finally been pummelled into second place

Sorry Link, there's a new 'highest ever rated game' and that game is, drum roll please... Super Mario Galaxy. It has an AVERAGE rating of 9.7 out of 10.

Which is pretty damn impressive you have to admit.

I do have it, and it is good. But the only thing that lets it down is something the game has no control over, the controller. My wrists still ache after pointing the wiimote at the screen for over 2 hours so i have to play it in bursts.

Then i just put smackdown 2008 back on.

I've been playing Smackdown for, at a guess, over 10 hours so far and how many achievements do i have to my name? None, nada, zip, zilch, bugger all, Planck constant, the square root of zero, any number minus itself. In one word, fuck all.

Then i had a look at the achievement list for it. It's bloody stupid. How hard do they want to make it. Some of them i don't even know how to do!

Below is the list of achievements for Smackdown 2008 (i didn't know the secret ones until now, some of them might actually be possible):

Hmph...far easier to get than the SD vs Raw 2007 ones.
I've been playing it to death for nigh on a year & only have 185 points.
