Today makes the first day I've ever played a game on its release date. I'm rather proud that this honor belongs to Super Mario Galaxy 2
( Read more... )
quick side-note. graphics won't matter until we get bionic eyes to better percieve them.(as far as high end graphics go, people talking about the difference in graphics when hawking their high-end electronics are full of shit, the difference is marginal)
"there are spawn locations all over Yoshi-based levels for his egg, which stops you from having to go all the way back to the beginning of a level (or worse, restart)"
Haha, like in Sunshine? That was the WORST. And it happened every time you had to traverse water and Yoshi disappeared every time he fell in a lake w/you. It was so lame.
I still need to play more Mario. Gotta play the first Galaxy too. What are your thoughts on New Mario Bros. Wii? My take is that (after an hour or so of play) it's potentially the hardest Mario game ever, especially because playing w/other people ups the difficulty considerably.
I've played very little 2-player, and nothing with more players than that, but it is definitely in the top 3 as far as difficulty.
Making matters more infuriating are the three Big Coins hidden in each level, which are "on-par-with" to "much-more-difficult-to-get" than the Comet Medals. These coins can be traded for videos showing hints, tricks, and so on, and collecting them all in a world unlocks a level in the Special World.
As far as new Suits, the Penguin Suit is cool, but somewhat difficult to control underwater, and the Propeller Hat is pretty awesome. Mini-Mario is... weird. Super jumps and small size, but getting killed in one hit. I haven't really messed with it, mainly because of the "one hit and you're dead" aspect of it, but, it seems like it has it's uses.
