Super Mario Galaxy

So, it's pretty much out all over the NA, and Europe should be getting it in a couple days, so first impressions?

I really can't get over how good the game looks, first of all. Especially Bowser, he really has it going in this one, his animation is amazing. Second, the music is phenomenal. I'd like to see you argue midi over orchestral scores with this one, TMB. All the remixes in the side galaxies are just amazing. And it plays so damn smooth. Every facet of it is so polished and just...perfect.

I've got something like 30 stars right now, just finished off the Beach Bowl Galaxy in the third dome.

So, how about everyone else?

The first fight with Bowser is so awesome I did it twice. TWICE. And yeah, even the music in that fight was breath-taking. I have exactly 30 right now.

Well I had mentioned awhile back on here that I didnt like Super Mario 64...Sunshine was ok,actually liked it better for some reason.

So having said that,even though Iv been looking forward to playing 'Galaxy' since it looks far more superior than 64 and Sunshine...and Mario has new costumes(which we havnt seen since Mario 3,which is my fave Mario ever)....Iv had doubts about 'Galaxy'....since at its core,its still all about collecting Stars.

I know alot of people are gonna disagree with me...its fine,this is all just my own opinion...besides,Iv come across a few others that didnt like Super Mario 64 either.

*raises hand* That would be me. I liked Mario Sunshine better than Mario 64, but the only Mario games I enjoy playing over and over again are the 2d ones. I haven't looked at Mario Galaxy much yet. The trailers looked okay. My brother is going to get it, so I'll reserve judgment until I've played it. I think I'm going to like it, but if not, then my favorite 3d Mario game will still be Mario Sunshine, and that isn't saying much.

Bring on New Super Mario Bros. 2 please!

I've got something like 40 stars now, been running through as many Galaxies as possible and trying to finish any prankster comets I can. The game can actually get pretty tough in some places, which is awesome. Love it. Also found the soundtrack somewhere, which is nothing short of some of the best Mario music in years.

I have to say Sunshine was fun, but IMO it didn't feel like the true Mario. In this game, everything, there's new things added and there's some old classic mario mixed in there. Even Bowser's voice is blood chilling!
