Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)

One of the benefits of not reviewing video games for a living, is that when you get a new game you don't have to rush through it and judge things on first impression. Of course, they do have the added benefit of receiving a must-have a while before the rest of the public, but do they really know what they're talking about? Take for example, the latest big name game to be released and Wii's title of the year - Super Mario Galaxy. Not only is the internet been buzzing since the games release of how it is the best game on the Nintendo Wii console right now, but there is also a lot of discussion on whether or not this is the single best game ever (a title that would usually ...  Read the complete review

I've never written a game review before, so go easy on me if it's not completely up to scratch. I'm not a 'gamer' as such, and technical specs etc mean nothing to me; you may as well be talking Japanese. I do however love playing computer games, to a certain extent. I used to adore my PS2, I moved briefly onto the XBOX360 and only enjoyed one game on it (Condemned) and then sold it. Earlier this year though I managed to get my hands on a Wii and although I would say I've only liked about half of the games I've played on it, the ones I have liked I have absolutely loved. It's a very addictive little thing. Super Mario Galaxy is widely hailed around the net as ...  Read the complete review

I have been a big fan of the Mario series ever since the old NES classics and have always found hours of pleasure, thankfully with this title i feel totally in love with the 1st few minutes of playing the title. This title has had so much hype from Nintendo and i was a little worried it would let me down and the series, i also read quite a few reviews stating that it was very easy and childish at parts. Well unless i am a total novice ( which a i am not,lol) i find this game quite a challenge. The deeper you get with the game the more the natural curve of difficulty progresses. It is a sheer pleasure playing this title with the new will controller, ...  Read the complete review

Most people look at this game and think it is a game for young children but i disagree as i have played this game for hours and the fun has never stopped and i have many friends that feel the same. Super mario galaxy is the latest game in the mario serie and is one of the best yet. It has many of the traits of the od games such as marios ability and some of the characters like luigi and princess peach but also still has the most important element, fun. The idea of the game is to play as mario and travel round many universes to collect stars so that you can help your friends. On different levels mario will gain different abilities such as fire, ice, the ability to became ...  Read the complete review

I did wonder if they could possibly bring out a new Mario game to beat the rest, the answer is yes, they did! Mario Galaxy is simply the newest in a long line of high-entertainment Mario games by nintendo to be enjoyed by young and old. Having only just bought my Wii a few days previous to buying this game it did take some getting used to but was well worth the effort.... The graphics are simply out of this world (excuse the pun!!) and this is really a game you can sink your teeth into. I was quickly hooked and really enjoyed the fact that you must learn new movements to control mario. It is fairly easy to play, my son also ...  Read the complete review
