It appeared on Saturday and after watching the planets style looking bits and running upside down looking idea's from previews previously i wasn't 100% if id like it but ive thankfully been very pleased with it and think its best platformer i've played in ages

There's also more good points about it being that my 3 year old son (soon to be 4) likes it so i get too play it rather than suffer kids tv channels when hes about previously he liked watching Ratchet and clank yet used to complain at likes of Cod4 or Vegas asking for me to play Gears of war instead !? thankfully the Mario look seems more comfortable for a almost 4 year to watch than shooting monsters heads off or chainsaw them to death ! lol

Bit late to get this, but now I have it...

What an absolute joy to play, real smile inducing stuff. Although essentially a platformer, it feels more fresh and vibrant than most of the other "by the numbers" games released these days

This is the Wii's killer game, and it proves that Nintendo still understand the essence of gaming.

Now looking forward to Call of Mario, Rainbow Mario and Gears of Mario

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say I wasn't blown away. I can see why you'd all like it so much, especially if you have a nostalgic bone in your body. But its all just a bit, dare I say, dull? I bought it for my nephew for xmas so that I could play it first, and after 5-6 hours of play, I didn't mind giving it up to him. Then I got my 360 and played Bioshock. Need I say more?

Horses for courses I guess.

Fair point. However, sometimes its nice to take a break from endless blood,guts and shrapnel, and play something that is innocently charming, slightly surreal, and most importantly, makes you smile

I do like my 360 but its mostly just Fps or racing games im playing which i do like where as Mario is a very nice looking and fun platformer something that the 360 does not have imo i know on 360 theres the likes of Tomb raider which is puzzle/shooter and Ac etc: but Mario is just a fun old school like platformer which looks very nice designed and just fun.

I've had Mario galaxy since its launch and was actually back to playing it again today months later so id still rate it myself as good game

i agree both with sj and throttle , hardly played wii over xmas at all i think once xmas day but as my poxy xbox has gone back to knackers yard once agian mario has kept me from going stir crazy and just as good as the first time i switched it on each level is different and so bloody clever.
mind you getting a ps3 today so it might have to take a back seat once agian
