Anyone pick up Super Mario Galaxy 2 yet?

[videogameking26]

I got mine coming from Amazon on Tuesday morning, the $20 game credit was just too good to pass up on. Loved the first and can't wait to finally start the sequel after work tuesday!.

Got mine of Amazon as well. Still, the $20 credit has yet to appear, though.

When it does, I will be using it on Alan Wake.

Lucky for me the the street date was broken and I have been playing it for a bit. Fun game.

Gah, didn't know it came out today. Shows how out of tune I am with the current gen! IGN seems very fond of this. Galaxy 1 is still one of my favorite games since the 16-bit era. I cannot wait.

The game was released on the Wii, not during the 16bit era.

He said SINCE the 16 bit era not during it. I'll be getting a copy today.

I picked it up around 11 AM -12 PM ish. It's awesome, better than the first.

I was waiting at Gamestop for their 9 a.m. opening. I had a long drive home yesterday so I wasn't able to play it until around 6 p.m. I beat world 1 last night and am absolutely LOVING it so far!

This game is ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! It will literally blow your mind, this will probably go down as my favorite Mario game of all time. It blows Galaxy 1 away entirely, it is about as dramatic of a change as SMB3 is from SMB1 on NES. It's THAT powerful.

Powerups are great, and so far all of the objectives are actually fun! I'm about 25 stars into it (mid of World 2) and nothing has been repetitive yet. No "collect 100 puple coin" crap, all diversified and fun objectives. Boss fights are beautifully done and difficulty feels just right so far... I'm sure it'll ramp up towards the end.

As an adult, I barely have time to beat games these days, let alone try to 100% them. But this is one that I will definitely try to 100%.

A++++++++++ to Nintendo. This game is a system seller, even this late into the system's lifespan.

I might try this just out of curiosity but I just didn't like the first Galaxy for some reason. *shrugs* I guess I'm in the minority here...

Picked it up on Sunday morning, and this game is awesome. It's way better than the first Mario Galaxy game so far.

Man that's great news if they got rid of the purple coin collecting type stuff...that was my least favorite bit of mario galaxy.

Girlfriend did pick this up today and I only got to play the first two stages (10-15min). Seemed good, but didn't get to play enough to form an opinion. (Not like I won't like a Mario game) Yoshi is welcome.

It will literally blow your mind

Like Scanners?


Anyway, I picked up the game today and played enough for the first 3 stars. This game is a little challenging already. Still, pretty fun so far.

[videogameking26]

Played for a few hours tonight after work, love everything about it and being a huge fan of the genre...I'm in love with this and love the addition of Yoshi, man can it be challenging at some points and I only have 12 stars so far.

*spoilers*




the purple coins are not gone.

I am glad they aren't. They aren't the most fun but they really hone your platformer skills, plus you don't have to do them if you don't want.
