Airwalker Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 This might've been mentioned already but Toys R Us is running a sale when you buy Galaxy you get a 25 Dollar gift card. Well, I'll be making my first trip to Toys R' Us since the days of the Pokemon League with those trading cards back in '99. Quote
Red Shadow Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 i preordered it after playing for ten minutes at a local gamestop didnt even want it before. should say something Quote
Bigfoot Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Wow, Gametrailers reviewed this and gave it a 9.8 I'm not watching it though, I've kept myself pretty spoiler free with this game so far. Quote
friendlyHunter Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Wow, Gametrailers reviewed this and gave it a 9.8I'm not watching it though, I've kept myself pretty spoiler free with this game so far. 9.8?! That's like 98 out of 100. Or 9800 out of 10000. It's over NINE THOUSAAAAAAND!!!! I preordered this one for my wife's birthday, this coming [day of week]. She'll have it on the [sleventeen]th, if the release date is correct. If she just happens to glance at this post though, I'll be screwed on the surprise gig. Man, you'd better delete your post before someone quotes it. [Quote has been edited to preserve surprise ] Quote
Bigfoot Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Well, so far GT has given a 360 game a 9.8, and now a Wii game 9.8. I wonder if the PS3 will have one of their own. Quote
friendlyHunter Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Just looked on Gametrailers to find out what the XBox360's 9.8 rating was. Anyone know if Galaxy has any form of multiplayer? For a single-player game to get the same score as Halo 3 (and higher than Bioshock), it must be as good as I hope it is =) (Though I have yet to play any of those games, so I really don't know what I'm talking about) Quote
Bigfoot Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 The only form of multi-player that Galaxy has that I know of is the other playing pointing with a Wiimote and collecting/shooting things or something. Also, GT rated the story the lowest(7.5), so it could have gotten a 9.9 maybe, heh. Quote
The Author Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 I won't buy a game who calls me Mr. Gay. ... ... Meh, who am I kidding... Quote
SwordBreaker Posted November 8, 2007 Author Posted November 8, 2007 Well...IGN and Gamespot gave Galaxy high scores, obviously. 9.7 and 9.5 respectively. Lots of praises all around with minor complaints in the camera system, easy difficulty if you're aiming to just finish the game, and framerate dips. I'm definitely going to aim to get all 120 stars for some challenge. Quote
Global-Trance Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 I want to get this game on release, but my friend is hooking me up for only $40 instead of $49.99 plus tax. I guess I am willing to wait for this a day or two. I am very anxious for this game. It was my absolute favorite thing to play at E3 2006! Quote
Azul v2 Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 Played today at Gamespot for an hour (no one else was in the store, so don't call me a hog). It is definitely fun. I couldn't put it down but I had to go to see Robert Morgan read excepts from his new book. Its confusing at first. You have to stop to talk to all the little creatures so you can figure out whats going on. Quote
MechaFone Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 Well I told my wife the surprise, 'cause she figured it out when I told her I was getting something that wouldn't be available until the 12th. Quote
Neo Samus Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 Well I told my wife the surprise, 'cause she figured it out when I told her I was getting something that wouldn't be available until the 12th. You should have lied and told her the 19th!! I showed my fiancee Galaxy last night, she wouldn't admit it (calls herself a closet gamer LOL), but she really liked it. Quote
Bigfoot Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 Ahhhh, look at all of those high reviews.. http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/wii/supermariogalaxy?q=super%20mario%20galaxy Must...get... Quote
dsx100 Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 I'm actually suprised Gamespot gave it such a high score. I thought for sure the whole weak story and somewhat bad camera thing would have killed it for them. I guess you really can't deny how good this game is. Man I'm really excited now. Quote
Imagist Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 Holy crap. A 97 at Metacritic? That's almost unheard of in the games section. It'll probably come down as more reviews flood in (the scores generally do... later reviews have a habit of handing out lower scores), but still. The highest score I could find in a quick search was 96. Quote
Neonlare Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 This is awesome, I must get this, but this... ...This is madness! Quote
Bigfoot Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 My friend already beat it. What a jerk. Quote
Neo Samus Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 THIS IS GALAXY!!! THIS IS MUSHROOM KINGDOM........IN SPACE!!!!! Quote
