4 out of 5 stars Great game   September 10, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The only reason I gave this four stars is because parts of it can be extremely difficult for those of us who are video-game challenged. So many times I've had to go online for help to get out of a particular spot or have my son help me. My 12-year old daughter really likes this game also. This is definitely a must get game for the Wii.

3 out of 5 stars Dashed hopes...   August 27, 2008
After thoroughly enjoying Mario Kart Wii, I decided to give Super Mario Galaxy a try. I started playing the Mario games with the first one, and have played most of the main titles, including Mario 64. I'm not an expert on gaming, but even I could tell that this game was lacking. Here are my top complaints:

This game seems to be made for young children. The plot is weak, the characters are cartoonish, and the levels are not mentally challenging. Puzzles are something I have come to expect after playing Mario 64, yet there are no puzzles in this game. The most taxing part of playing it is simply in mastering the new controllers, which happens in the first few levels.

The wacky camera angles drove me crazy in Mario 64, and they are back in full force. Mario jumps off ledges and runs into foes because you can't see in front of him, and sometimes you can't see Mario at all (when he gets stuck behind something all you can see is his shadow).

Nintendo should also have made it possible to skip the dialogue sections. These are a constant source of annoyance, as most of what is said is not helpful for gameplay and you have to repeat the same segments over and over and over again every time you die.

The throw-backs to the old games are fun at times, but I was very ready for some new scenes. Just like in Mario 64, this had the water world, the ghost world, etc., but nothing really changed. I expected more characters, different and interesting worlds, new moves and activities, or just some general changes. Unfortunately, these were the same old things we've done before. What kept me going was the hope that there would be something better to come, and I was disappointed.

Those of you out there who enjoy games but have to scrimp and save to buy them will understand my final complaint. This game costs $[...], but does not deliver $[...] worth of game!!! I want secret levels! I want more games-within-the-game!! Give me more to do!

All in all, I expected more bang for my buck. Although this was fun, it just doesn't live up to the hype. Alas, another disappointing Wii game.



4 out of 5 stars Fun but not a 2 player game   August 27, 2008
This game is fun but don't be fooled into thinking it is a 2 player game. The 2nd players role is insignificant. It is fun for one person though and the graphics are great!
