and after playing Galaxy for about 20 minutes I'm sad to say that I don't think I'll be picking it up ) : . I mean the game looks great and controls like a dream, but the biggest problem I had was that it made me so dizzy. I mean I absolutely loved 64 and sunshine had its good parts, and I know it might not all be like this, but honestly the shimmering graphics and the spinning world gave me a headache. Anyone else notice this and are all the levels going to be round and have the camera jumping all over the place?

of course not. Every "galaxy" is different. some may be circular, while others are more vast. PLUS MY HEAD MUST BE MADE OF STEAL BECAUSE I NEVER GET HEADACHES FROM PLAYING GAMES!!!! Also, after watching almost every video on the net of SMG, I am immune of it's dizziness ;)

I say dizzy, its not like I'm getting sick and puking all over the place. It's just that running all over the worlds, chasing after those stupid rabbits, looking at the graphics and attempting to follow every second just put me into a haze. I'm not saying I hated it, Its just that was one aspect of the game that I really didn't get that into. I'm sure the later levels will open up a bit more and have a lot more going for it. I'm just a bit dissapointed with how the game feels as of now... that's all.

Nintendo does give a fair warning about gaming experiences before the game loads up...:P but hell..who honestly gets seizures and severe headaches from playing games? If you do, you have bigger things to worry about than getting 120 stars...:?

How do you people get dizzy from looking at a television screen??? It's not like your spinning around while looking at the ceiling. Maybe the correct word is disoriented.Are youguys just getting disoriented???

From the gamespot review: All the crazy gravitational pulling and perspective shifting is undeniably cool, and also potentially a little queasy.

Guess I'm not the only one...

It's really no big deal, if it makes you dizzy, just don't pick it up. Just ignore everyone else on this board who are willing to kill the first person that says anything negative about the game.
