Mario Galaxy

[Daydreamer]

Meh, I live about 25 miles east of Birmingham, in a small town called Moody. I'll probably have to drive to Trussville or something to find an ad. :\ Would it be in a newspaper or anything by any chance?

Eh, just drive to the closest toys r us. I went in, grabbed an ad, and left, then drove down the road to circuit city.

Moody is still close nuff to b'ham to make the drive worth it, especially for a 25$ gift card to your place of choice (as long as they do price matches)

Purple Coin Stars are so random. Sometimes its just walking around the level finding 100. That is fun. But then I did the one in the Haunted House level and... holy shit. 1:00 to collect 100 purple coins using those stupid blue star things in a place with those bouncy meats and mines all over. And just when I got 100 and thought I was finally done, oh wait, I have to get 100 coins AND the star in one minute! God freaking damn. Never want to do that star again.

Yeah, that one was pretty annoying lol. First time I got 100 coins with 1 second left and immediately lost as the star appeared, second time i just went around the edge and worked my way towards where the star spawned so I wouldn't have far to go to grab it.

Wow that is an awesome bonus about Luigi, I did not realize .

This game is so unbelievably fun. I am only at 10 stars currently and did not want to put the game down, but I got hungry lol.

The first boss battle with Bowser Jr. was fucking EPIC, totally reminded me of Shadow of the Colossus.

I love how they are bringing back airships with bombs and shit too, /mario 3 nostalgia :D

You'll also notice that the music attached to airships is based on the original mario3 score.

Oh and if you thought the ghost house purple coins was hard/annoying, wait till you try the toy-land purple coins challenge. I'm very good at platformers (ghost house took me uh, 4 tries?) and I blew almost 30 lives on the toy-land challenge.

lol
I have 65 stars, and just now realized I skipped the 5th galaxy.
Whups.

There is so much in this game that is a nod to Mario 3 it makes me feel all warm and gushy inside with nostalgia. Like the one galaxy I was on in the second observatory (second galaxy in there) with the boss fight spanning multiple airships, and the monty moles popping up and throwing those wrenches at you.

I love it!

[Exoduso]

I really need to stop playing Assassin's Creed for a bit and advance in this game.. >.<

[Scythiroth]

I'm currently working on "Part 2" of this game. Someone kinda already spoiled it, but I will just call it that. >.>

Seriously this is best part of the game lol. I was loving the music during the Sweet Sweet Galaxy and other bonus levels.

for real. I'm loving the fact that of the 2 bonus levels I've been to so far, they seem to be a good deal harder/more sadistic than the standard galaxies. I really like the galaxy "boss" fights for the 3rd star. they're not really hard, but clever and pretty fun. this game is just genius all around.

[Po]

Only level I am having trouble with so far, that feels cheap is the second "feed the Luma" galaxy: Sling Pod Galaxy. It is such a crapshoot where those sticky tree things are gonna send you. Other than that, the game is nearly perfect (21 stars in).

haha I beat that one after a few tries before going to work. it's not a crapshoot at all where the trees send you. after you pull yourself back you can move where you're aiming yourself, just line yourself up like pool shot and you're set. there's some tricky parts, but the trees are pretty exact with how you line yourself up to begin with.

[XxSlusherxx]

I disagree you can totally aim those if you take your time

[Maxxthepenguin]

Ok this game is all it is said to be and more. It's so freaking brilliant.

[Kenai]

Fuck that stupid Boo race. I died so much getting that star, so hard to not hit a bomb at the end.

And...back to the game...I can't get enough, not yet. So good... :D

heh I know it isn't a crapshoot literally, I was just getting really frustrated since I lost like 12 or 13 lives, and never made it past the 3rd or 4th tree. But I'll get back to it.

Oh, fantastic. I had heard that star was really hard, but after the ghost star, I was thinking "hey, jumping around can't be as hard as those stupid blue stars!" But if it really is that much harder then... fuck me.

[Oxyminus]

lol I just burned through like 10-12 stars tonight, up to 28 total I think. boss fight i dont wanna spoil, epicness, complete epicness. was smoking a J and my roommate had to watch. they really thought of everything in this game. started doing some of the comet stars, those are pretty sadistic. think i lost like 8 lives on the good egg speed run, had to call it a night.

[Maxxthepenguin]

Oh man, I was having a blast until I got the red lumos

Then I was in pure Nirvana. Seriously, that is some amazing fun.

Finally got my wii and only have 3 stars so far, but do the levels get better? Hopping from tiny rock-planet things to other rock-planet things and walking upside down is giving me a headache
