Saw it on that one Nintendo website. It was a video review and I couldn't watch it at work, but apparently that's what they gave it according to the comment section.BowieZ said:

He doesn't really explain or justify why he gave it an 8 though.

Probably means the one in 2.
I'm at 30 stars..and I still haven't finished world 3...
All I have to say is the prankster comets are the absolute bread and butter of this game. Had a blast with both the flip spin purple coin and tree slide purple coin challenge.. So much fun and quite challenging! I also love the cosmic clone stages. So So awesome. A big improvemet over the comet stars In the first game!

Well, considering I had a blast playing worlds 1-4, some of which were the craziest, incredibly creative and most enjoyable levels I have ever played in a game, that's a good thing
. I have yet to play beyond world 4 but I just can't understand how anyone could be disappointed with what the game had to offer up until that point. Really, my jaw has been dropped so many times at just how crazy fun some of the levels are. I'm constantly mumbling to myself while playing "I can't believe I'm actually doing this" or "Damn! How did they come up with that insane idea?"..
This game takes every basic idea in SMG 1 into overdrive, all the while consistently adding tons of new ones.
Holy crap balls at
This is probably going to be the toughest one yet. Gave it 3 tries, got kind of close...but, wow. You have to go fast, and have to get them all. Not to mention the clones. Yeesh.
Luigi's Purple Coin Chaos, or whatever it's called (the prankster comet on Mario Squared Galaxy).

How do you activate the Prankster Comet Coins? Or does that just happen automatically?
Also, there's only 1 per galaxy/level right?

my jaw dropped so many times during the world 1 to 3 already. surprises come one after the other. I esp love the 2nd world stage/boss. given the new gameplay, they can definitely make more stages with mix of those ideas. whatever you call it, I don't mind a Galaxy 2.5

Of the three consoles, the Wii has given me the best experience this gen, and if I had to do it again, I would buy it exclusively this gen, yet I still don't own or played most of the games people list when haters ask what games are good on Wii.

I got the game today. Pretty awesome.
I don't know why this thread is so huge though. What is there to talk about? The whole fun of this game is discovering everything on your own. Seems like everyone's just treating this like a gaf tweets thread.

I was wondering when the thread was going to get around to another name change... :lol
That MSNBC review wasn't terrible, but it does sound like the sort of thing you would expect to hear from someone that didn't fully delve into the game. I could be wrong on this, but I get the sense that the "nothing we haven't seen before" comment is more related to the overall structure and style of the game than a genuine rating of the gameplay. "Oh, you're Mario jumping around spherical worlds and collecting stars. Yoshi's there but he's been in Mario games before too." This isn't a game that comes around with a bunch of what you would call "new features" to tout, so it wouldn't surprise me if the reviewer plowed through the first two or three worlds or so and made his call of the game from there.
Tomorrow, my assault on World 6 begins!

fernoca said:Yeah..just checked again and it seems to imply that it was all reset at the end..of the first game...
The crying baby..meaning the birth of new stars..Rosalina talking about the cycle of stars saying then turning into stardust which in turn become new galaxies..and that's the cycle of life and the it never repeats in the same way and "You'll see"..
Then Mario ,Peach, and Bowser all waking up in the ground looking at each other..clueless..and Rosalina is heard saying:
Then Mario says...
So that may be why they all act as if the first one never happened..
And sorry if this is a big spoiler for those playing the first game right now..
This is how I take as well... expecially after the ending of the second one.

Beat the final bowser
Was happy to see a whole new world waiting for me when I returned to the game. Kicked it off with what was basically a non-finicky version of Luigi's Purple Coins, which was awesome. I hope they really ramp up the difficulty in this world! i'm also excited to see what happens at 120 stars. no one tell me, though!
