[QUOTE="kansasdude2009"]

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!

Giancar

are really the other stars unique? or it is like the first game?

[spoiler] While i've only done a couple, it seems that Nintendo has hidden green stars throughout the levels to encourage exploration. It's better than having a Luigi playthrough, but it hardly adds to the experience. It seems like a sort-of filler to get to the final galaxy. I'll do more green stars and PM you my thoughts. [/spoiler]

I am quite surprised that some people have already received 120 stars as I am having problems getting my 67th. Perhaps I am not good in 3D Mario games as in 2D Mario games. The 3d perspective is something I have still yet to be comfortable with even though I have played the first Super Mario Galaxy and before it Super Mario Sunshine many years back.

This may explain why Nintendo provided a DVD tutorial for the Japanese and European versions.

And one thing about the boss battles...

[spoiler] I am quite surprised as how large the boss characters are, especially Bowser. They do put up with a challenge [/spoiler]

I don't know if this has been pointed out, but it now seems that Super Mario Galaxy 2 has finally met System Wars hype thanks to the poll. :lol:

[QUOTE="Shinobishyguy"]so whats everyone's favorite levels so far? Mine are starshine beach, clockwork ruins, and throwback galaxy

I've decided that slimy spring galaxy is my favorite for unknown reasons. I think it's because it focuses more on exploration and isn't as fast paced as everything else. Let it be known that this is the first time a water level has EVER been my favorite level in any game. It's just a beautiful galaxy. With that said, I also really like starshine beach for the same reason. You'll read more in my SWM review, I just hope I don't get flamed to death.

Seriously? Least favorite galaxy so far, both stars were not fun at all. My favourites are probably Boo Moon, Melty Molten Monster, Slipsand, Shiverburn, Space Storm, HoneyBloom, Flipsville. I know thats alot, but honestly they are all freakin' incredible.

If you stop focusing on the objective and relax, I found it a lot of fun just going around the galaxy and finding its secrets. The underwater hole is pretty cool, too. :P

hahaha, I'm honestly excited to see what people think of my review. I just want you all to know that i'm not creating BS just to cause controversy, I had a similar complaint with SMG1, but it's been largely highlighted in this game and I have found better words to describe it. :P

If it's about linearity I found that this game has a greater number of explorable levels compared to the first

I swear to god it's like a lightswitch went off for the industry and in some mystical way the heard my cry for wanting more games taht know they are games. You know games that are more about being fun(games that take themselves too seriously please GTFO) First Bayonetta, than messing around in Just Cause 2(althoguh yes a sloppy game), and now this? Oh my god I love this game. Mechanics are on point, level design is just impressive, and it's addictive to boot. Props to Nintendo and Miyamoto. They are so beast it's not even funny.

Yeah, I agree with that. I'm always left wanting more from this game. I think I can truly call it the perfect game because of that, but there comes a time when I want to be satisfied. :(
