But Super Mario Galaxy is just... well, more. Oh-oh, the biggest Mario fangirl is ... disappointed? Im saying it's very hard to rank anything higher than the three I listed, but I think I will have to place Super Mario Galaxy above them since it's perfect. Something I can't say about the other three.

 Re: Last game you played?
I'm still not 100% sure if I'm going to rank Galaxy higher than Super Mario 64. Super Mario 64 had that "WOW!" feeling to it. I was like 8 when it came out, and it blew me away. It changed everything and was amazing. But Galaxy is a lot bigger and better, it just doesn't have the same "WOW!" experience I got from 64 just from Mario jumping out of the pipe at the very beginning infront of the castle. When that happened, my face was like =O!!.
If it doesn't top Super Mario 64, it's still gonna get #2 on my list for favorite games ever.

She killed me a few times also. I kept trying to knock out her legs, but that isn't required. Do your best to get behind her in the circle, then jump into the web things, and pull back on the Wiimote and smash into her ass. She'll turn over, then get into the web things and knock out the 3 Red/Orange? circle things on her stomach. I think you need to do this 2 or 3 times. If you need coins, there are some in the web I beieve.

If you've gotten further.I just got past the T-Rex, so I'm still a little early. It's good so far... like Legend, I love the new control scheme and the way the game plays (so much better than the old days). My only beef is the environments aren't yet very diverse, whereas they were constantly changing in Legend. I'm getting ready for a change in scenery. It looks like there is a ton of extras to unlock... from commentaries to pictures to costumes. At this point it's looking like I'll more than get my enjoyment out of the game! Did you play it yet?

Just finished the game and quite enjoyed it. Looks like Assassain's Creed is going to have a sequel judging from the "ending." I've even read that Ubisoft plans on this being a trilogy. I knew about the "twist" before I played the game but I won't mention it again here except that the "twist" happens pretty much the moment you turn the game on. Anyways, the game looks AMAZING!!!! It has some of the best graphics around. My only real complaint that kept AC from getting an A was the diversity of the missions.... there was no diversity. By the end all the missions started to become repetative but not to the point where I didn't want to play anymore. Before you can assassainte you main target, you have to do research. Reasearch includes pickpocketing, eavesdroping, interrogation, and doing things for Informers. Be prepared because once you do this for the very first guy, it never changes for the rest. Rinse and repeat. Side missons include saving citizens and scaling buildings to get to View points. Once again, these never change. The actual main assassinations are pretty cool. Combat kinda sucks in the begining, but gets alot better after you get some upgrades. The platforming in this game is awesome. Climbing tall buildings and escaping from enemies have never been easier. If i had to compare this game to another, it would definetly be Crackdown. I feel jipped by the ending because it doesnt explain much. Im not even sure if thats the real ending or that I need to collect all the flags and kill every single 60 templers to unlock it. The computer in the lab did ask for a password so maybe somewhere with the eagle vision you can unlock it

I think it was either the red or green button but I do know you are supposed to run. The best part about being out of combat is its much easier to kill me opponents. I just either run, tackle/grab them and them one shot kill them with my dagger when they hit the ground

I have 89 Stars, and about 20 hours in.
Anyway, bought Mario Party DS today. I'll play it some tomorrow and give my early thoughts on it.

It looks like it could end up with better reviews than any Mario Party game since the first two, maybe. Too early to tell, but:Quote: Gamespot: 8.0 Best of all, the developers have made it so that you need only a single cartridge to get a party going with as many as four people.
IGN: 7.0 A solid multiplayer mini-game experience with a lot of the flaws of the previous versions. It doesn't do anything truly special than create a bunch of touch screen and microphone-centric minigames (and even then we've seen variations of them in other DS titles), but it at least comes together as a better title than the last console Mario Party design.

 Re: Last game you played?
Rock Band (Xbox 360) - As I expressed in the RB thread, it's an awesome game. But, for easy future reference (I like to look through this thread on occassion to see my recently played games), here's the highlights:
Positives - Fantastic song list - The best party game ever - The drums - Character customization options up the wazoo - The new guitar effects (waa-waa!!!) - Tons of nice stages - 5 games in one (drum career, vocal career, bass career, lead guitar career, band career)
Negatives - Clunky system for switching characters/instruments in a band - Not enough stats, hard to find top scores - Drum foot pedal needs to secure to the base better
Overall: A+ (negatives are very minor and don't at all hamper the enjoyment of the game)

 Re: Last game you played?
So I started playing Super Mario Galaxy yesterday - it's really, really good.
I just completed the first galaxy (I totally remembered that Bullet Bills follow you, that should've been a clue on how to defeat the first Bowser Jr. planetoid). I'm now in the one with the junk pieces.
Bee Mario was pretty cute. Though, him "scratching" the Queen Bee was slightly unnerving, lol.
