Mario has been in over 250 games. Goozernation attempts to near down the top 10 Mario games of all time to the top 5. What makes the cut into the top 5? Will Mario Galaxy be mentioned? What about Super Mario RPG? Where does Paper Mario fall?
"Sometimes, you find yourself in a loving relationship with a partner who may not exactly share your passion for gaming. We’ve all been there. Instead of breaking up, why not try introducing them to a game or two that would be uniquely suited to their tastes and their skill levels so that you can play together?"
"Many gamers like to have a little drinky-drink when they play. Sometimes, though, you want to take your drinking game to the next level. Speaking of "drinking games," there just aren't enough of them specifically tailored to the world of video games."
"The trend of including cooperative campaigns has grown in popularity over the years. While many of our favorite franchises are still coming to grips with the cooperative modes, we see great innovation and experience a great sense of achievement in the ones that make it a priority."
"Often in the Super Mario series Princess Peach will invite Mario to the castle for cake, and is then promptly stolen by Bowser. So many narrative plot-points are never addressed within Mario. Is cake a metaphor for something else? Why does Bowser love pinching Peach so much? Why on earth does Mario actually bother saving her all the time? It's never yet been addressed, and probably never will be. You'd have to think our favourite portly plumber would eventually give up his quest to gain the m..."
"Ah, the power of friendship. Getting your best bud together for a friendly co-op campaign or raid can bring forth not only a new gaming experience, but memories that will last forever (cue gag reflex). However, as these gamers prove, sometimes all it takes is a difficult level or partner to turn two friends into mortal enemies."

"Hands down, these are the two most perfect water worlds ever featured in a game. They have everything: lots of areas to explore (both above and under water), hard-to-find coins and stars, and some interesting objects to climb and maneuver around. The music is also worth noting – it’s so deep and memorable that you’d swear it came from Final Fantasy."
"Super Mario Wii made it’s dominating entrance into the Nintendo market last year with an incredible battle mode. A race to collect coins and kill each other would make this hyperactive battle the best for the Wii thus far. The feeling of getting thrown off a ledge by player 2 is excruciating because you have to bubble your way back to him to get out, and of course he being the ass he is, will run away from you the whole damn time leaving you with no coins and himself with all the coins, inclu..."
"The recent end to 2009 and all the holidays that lead up to the New Year involved a lot of traveling to a lot of different relative's houses. Since I'm the "gamer" of the family, it's usually up to me to bring some form to digital entertainment or know the latest stuff out there. The following list are some of the games requested to me and ones that are always crowd pleasers."

"As 2009 came to a close, we posted a weeklong look at our favorite games of 2009. However, those 40 titles (including the eight we ultimately chose to honor as "The Best of the Best") were far from the only good games released last year. And did our picks match up with the rest of the game industry? But most importantly, what we really wanted to know was which game was truly the best game of 2009."
""...it only makes sense to pay a little respect to a few of the games that may not have fit within some of the ubiquitous standard-fare categories. That doesn't mean you won't see some familiar names on this list but you might see a few unexpected games as well. So here's an unofficial list of some of the most original games of 2009.""
"Like Jack Bauer, Chuck Norris and Neil Patrick Harris rise above the station of mortal men and become legendary, so do some video games. While 2009 was a tough year for the industry, both financially and creatively, that didn't stop a handful of titles from being enshrined into the video game canon."
Although the Nintendo Wii may be lacking in high-profile exclusive game releases in the year of 2009, the system did have quite a few overlooked Wii-only titles.
""2009 saw Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's record breaking launch, the return of Nathan Drake in Uncharted 2, new, groundbreaking experiences and traditional classics for the whole family. 2009 was a huge year for any type of gamer, no matter how you slice it.
So it is without further ado that GameZone presents our 2009 Game of the Year Awards. We took a look at the best and the brightest that this year had to offer, wracked our brains together in a rigorous voting process, and now we pres..."
