Mario games dont get much better
Super Mario Galaxy had the potential to just copy Mario Sunshine or Mario 64. This would have a made a good game for most gamers and a great one for avid Mario fans. The weird thing is Nintendo made an incredibly new sequel. This is perhaps the best game in 2007 and this was no lackluster year. There is absolutely nothing you can complain about with this game. The graphics are some of the best we may ever see on the Wii for awhile. It just doesn't hit you with great modernization of our favorite characters (bowser looks so cool). It gives us eye candy and some what sickness with its topsy-turvy style. The controls are easy to pick up and anyone who has played Mario 64 will be right at home with them. All of the character models look amazing and the levels are varying in difficulty so you don't feel as if it is to easy or too difficult. There are a total of 120 stars which will give you plenty of playing time before you get burnt out. The music takes you back to old school mario with its modern style beat, and even adds some new memorable music. The storyline is brand new and allows you to meet new characters and explore worlds in a whole new way. Super Mario Galaxy sets the bar pretty high for Wii software and games in general.
