RDR is cool and all but honestly just messed around with this game a bit today, and it's ten thousand times more fun. jg4xchamp

well i'm sure its a fun game and all, but a 10/10? I hate how GS couldnt even find 1 thing to put in the "bad" category. It's probably not over-hype like with GTA IV, but I'm just one of those people that doesnt believe that ANY game deserves a 10/10. I tend to not find it THAT hard to find at least 1 thing bad about ANY game. 10/10 means perfect, and when EVERYONE says a game is "perfect" I just start to wonder how much they were paid to say it.......

I find it funny how people that didn't play this game are rating it a one or 2 or some incredibly low score,but I already reported these people.

MG2 looks awesome, and I'll get it soon but to me, its not like this awesomely epic game thats one of the greatest games of our time or something. It just comes across as an excellent disctraction. What I mean is, of course its a great game, but its just not something epic like a Legend of Zelda game. I can't see myself being "wowed". Its no wonder why GS didn't give it the "Oh Snap" emblem. Its because there's never going to be some unforgettable moment that people will always be talking about. There's nothing deep about the game, and its just impossible to get immersed in it. By the time I've beaten it I'll have forgotten all about it.

It's just nothing amazes me because IMO its just good old Mario back with some fun platforming. Again, this isn't a bad thing, but this rating of 10 just doesn't seem like a big deal to me whereas something if something like the next LoZ game or even something like Red Steel 2 had gotten a 10/10, now that would have been something to talk about.

Holy cow didn't see that coming.

Awesome score.

i'm finishing the first one before i get the second. if its anything like the first one, it's amazing :D

This Game has THE BEST MUSICAL SCORE EVER!

I must say, from what little I have played, this is one of the most fun games I have played this generation so far. However, I do not believe that we will see a Super Mario Galaxy 3 (would be complete overkill IMO and kind-of an easy way out for yet another sequel). I'm interested to see what nintendo will do next for Mario.JMR09

Well, I finished it. 110 stars. Ill probably get the remaining 10 tomorrow.

In short the game is fantastic. Best game Ive played this gen. Best patformer Ive ever played. Not the best game Ive ever played, but damn close.

The other 120 green stars trigger after you get the original 120.

Ill get the green stars over time. 120 is what I was originally aiming for.

I beat SMG2 yesterday with 120 stars and it truly is amazing. I just feel that while this is one of the best games this generation, it doesn't deserve a 10 out of 10. If any game deserves that it's Super Mario Galaxy. There isn't the "Wow!" factor in SMG2 that was in SMG, because it (SMG2) is very similiar to SMG. I feel that SMG is the game that should've gotten a 10/10 back when it was released and this game a 9.5/10.

Anyway, amazing game that every gamer should play. :)

ok first of all TP did not deserve a 9.0. It was the easiest zelda game Ive ever played in my life. I wouldve given it an 8.0

I think it got 10 for IMPROVING what the 1st did.

Grabbed SMG2 last night, even though my Wii has been acting up. The reason for that is when I went to go see my mom a couple of years ago, my girlfriend at the time kept it in a tight, cramped space that just screamed overheating, and she dropped it. Buying a new one next month.

Anyways, one of the best games I have ever played. It is impossible to put into words how well they've transitioned from the original. How they actually improved on the perfection that was the first is nothing short of amazing. This game is sex.

I completely agree with this. The original deserved the 10. SMG2, while inarguably an incredible game, just doesn't feel as epic as the first. The levels felt larger and more unique in SMG. I don't quite care for the new map, I preferred the old hub as it felt more integrated and not so separate. On the flip side, the music is much better here, and Nintendo's still got the level design down flat with many of the worlds being a lot more inventive. Yoshi is an awesome addition, as are the new suits.

But I can't say I'm enjoying this as much as the first. Still a great game, but just not as good.

I know man! My opinion must be the end all be all, right?!

Finished getting 120 stars last night and I started my review for System Wars Monthly.

I'm going to check out the green stars and see if I can get through 241 stars before SWM prints!

When people said that this game keeps surprising you at every turn and makes each moment more exhilarating than the last, they weren't exaggerating. I am on Fluffy Buff Galaxy and I am happy to say that this game completely surpasses Super Mario Galaxy 1 in every possible way. Nintendo has built this game around the primary reason which we all play video games, and that is for fun.
