Out Of This Galaxy

Posted by Lemonator Dec. 2, 2007 @ 1:38 PM EST

Amazing. Absolutely amazing. I bought my copy of Super Mario Galaxy on Thursday, November 15th. Getting into it, the controls took a little getting used to, and there was a mildy annoying reuinion with Mips, but after that, the game took off and soared.

Pros:
. Fantastic visuals; everything is gorgeous
. Classic power-ups return with a slew of new ones
. Fixed Camera, doesn't suck like previous entries (still not totally perfect-but excellent)
. Boss battles range from fun, to hard and back again
. Game takes inspiration from Mario 64 and a bit of Shine
. Gravity effects are amazing and revolutionary
. Incredible, breathtaking, original levels (the latter being harder)
. Even after you beat Bowser, there are 60 more Stars to find in hidden galaxies
. Co-op is surprisingly deep, me and my girlfriend (and my friends) enjoyed greatly-and beat Bouldergiest's Daredevil Run this way
. Some of the coolest moments in platforming (Wall-jumping up waterfalls, ice-skating on lava, surfing on shells battling giant skeletal fish in dark waters just to name a few)
. Prankster comets are an...interesting addition
. You can play as Luigi-fuck yeah

Cons:
. Orchestrated music can be...forgetable with a couple of exceptions
. Wish there was real co-op (Luigi + Mario)
. Some power-ups are underused (Boo suit)
. Prankster comets, while interesting-make time in each galaxy seem short (wish galaxies had 7 stars each)
. Like Mario 64 each Bowser battle is the same-with some tweaks

Weighed against each other, the flaws the game has are incredibly miniscule. This game is fantastic and I give it a 10.

There were so many pros I forgot them all, let me add to that. 2D NSMB style side scrolling.

As fun is that sounds, the only reason I don't play it because: I don't own it, its $50 bucks, there are WAY TOO MANY MARIO GAMES!!!!!!!, and (in my opinion no offense) nintendo is running out ideas and are makeing more ridicules games. Soon, we might me see, mario party 15, Mario underground, Mario cart Galaxy, Mario cart PS2 and so on...

i like super mario galaxy, but is has no post game, i mean, after you complete the game, it gets boring very quickly plus if your a mario fan, buy super smash bros brawl.
