Super Mario Galaxy Owns Your Big Fat Mom!

[Stewart]

Everyone waiting for this should also have a read through IGNs History of Mario, its a good read, and should educate any games playing fools who still don't get the buzz around the new Mario game.

IGN: IGN Presents The History of Super Mario Bros.

'Mario is the face of videogaming, more recognized around the world than Mickey Mouse. He's appeared in two hundred games, collectively selling over two hundred million units.

He's launched consoles, salvaged entire industries and led the charge into true 3D gaming. Six out of the top-ten best selling videogames of all time are Mario games. Orchestras perform his theme music. Operas have been written. He's gotten his own cartoon series and, unfortunately for those that saw it, a live-action film.

He propelled his creator from staff artist to legend, honored in America, knighted in France and in control of his own division at the third largest company in Japan.'

My copy of Super Mario Galaxy is sitting on my desk right now

The worst part is I can't leave work for another 6 hours :'(

[beanbandit]

Same here, but i'll probably be too busy to play tonight.

It arrived for me this afternoon

I've allowed myself 20 mins or so and have just got the first power star..so far its good, very much the spiritual sequal to Mario 64. Got to get some work done now but I can see myself being up quite late tonight when I give up on work

I am on to the second galaxy and loving it.

ITs what mario sunshine should have been but wasnt.

I am loving it

One thing I forgot to mention.

THe music on the game is absolutely amazing!!!!!! Reminds me of the music that Disney are so good at doing. Soaring music which sweeps around and fits so perfectly

Think i`m gonna have to go back to the Galaxy for a bit

[Steven W]

Will have this tomorrow! Woohoo. I'm still skeptical about all these high marks until I've played it myself.

[kopite]

IMHO THe reviews are right.

I really wouldnt be surprised If Edge Magazine gives this 10 That would be 3 10`s in 3 issues

lol, i've been wondering the same thing, no 10 score in 3 years then 2 (or 3) in a row

Halo got a 10, Galaxy might... what was the other game they gave 10?

[McClane]

This game is utterly amazing. I played it for 10 seconds and thought WOW. People slag the Wii off because it can't produce super realistic graphics but seriously who cares when the game is as fun as this. I'm heading in to work early so I can get back and play it all night

The Orange Box. Mainly the console versions as that came with another 10/10 game, Half Life2.

[Steven W]

Still not picked it up, nipping down after work. I'm dedicating my weekend to this! Bring it on.

[Steven W]

Wow, it's amazing, so many great ides merged with great Mario gameplay. Bloody brilliant
