Mario Galaxy - Official Thread

Beat final Bowser last night for my son after he got 60 stars (with a little help from me). I see reading this page we still have some way to go :p

What a class game this is, some of levels are pure genius.
 
I just ******* did it! Took me about 30 attempts but I did it!!! :D :D :D

That was my last Mario Star too. And I'm gonna replay it for deffo- what a corking game!

(Yes- I like it)

hehe that and the volcano level daredevil run i have pretty much given up on... i want to get the 120 but those 2 seem impossible!

Yeh that was the last star I had to get. Took me about 2 hours the other night. Thats what makes the game so amazing though because you get a great sense of achievement after finally completing it. The amount of times I just kept getting caught by simple things was ridiculous. I found myself rushing through the early parts of the level and constantly getting caught by something stupid.
 
only had a quick go on this, really like it though only got 3 stars, but got tomorrow off so might stay in and play it all day :D
 
Luigi's purple coins was a right bugger! It got much easier once I realised you don't need to collect every coin, but still took the best part of 20 lives and some serious cursing!
 
Sunshine was very average compared to Mario 64, a significant step back. With Galaxy they're back on form. Really, I can't see how anyone could prefer Sunshine, it was a complete non event.
 
Finally got my hands on this yesterday, was going to buy it for myself on release, but the family wanted an idea for a christmas present.

Only 10 stars in, but it's been well worth the wait :D

Took me about 1/2 hour to get used to it, running around upside down, inside out, twisiting and turning. Probably wasn't wise to start playing it after a few drinks ;)
 
Been playing this with my nipper today... he got it for Xmas yesterday, we spent the day with family and although I took the Wii with us, I forgot to take the video cable so it meant we had to watch TV yesterday instead of playing SMG and GH3. Wasn't pleased at all.

Anyway, loving SMG at the moment, and we're not very far in... just completed the Manta Ray racing part so we've still got a long way to go :D

The variety of the levels, the control scheme and overall playability... and also the soundtrack really set this game apart. Easily the #1 game on Wii so far, as far as the Little 'Un and I are concerned.
 
I bought a Wii for xmas and got Mario Galaxy as I was that impressed with it atmy friends house.

I've got 33 stars so far and just discovered a hidden one, I need two more to open up something, don't know what yet! I really do like it for it's pick up and playability though and the level design is fantastic.
 
Just watched the Zero Punctuation video for Super Mario Galaxy.... I can't link directly to it cause there's a large amount of swearing in it (as you'd expect) but it did make me laugh out loud several times :D

edit: oh, and the Guitar Hero 3 video is even funnier!
