Review: Super Mario Odyssey

Mario has never been slicker to control ... it can become a thing of pure joy just to hurtle Mario around levels exploring and finding power moons at your own pace It is fair to say that the Nintendo Switch's first seven months have been better than anyone expected.
Pros:
  • It's classic Mario
  • Mario's never controlled better
  • Beautiful worlds
  • Incredible title song
  • A genuinely great game
Cons:
  • Doesn't live up to previous Mario greats
  • Some open world aspects don't work as well as they should
  • Boring story
  • even for a Mario game
  • Too easy to reach the credits
  • Missing that Nintendo magic and soul
