It works works in the gameвЂ™s favor given that all of us got enough 3D planetoid platforming with the first game.ДЄfter beating Bowser, thereвЂ™s still a lot to do with more stars to collect and more worlds to explore (including Rainbow Road!). Miyamoto has noted that gamers in Japan were easily disoriented by the spacey 3D gameplay of the original Super Mario Galaxy, and I think this change was implemented to correct this. Most significant, however, is the increased emphasis on 2D platforming. ThereвЂ™s a ghost stage that is completely dark, with an occasional flash that allows you to see the stage for a brief moment, and an epic final stage leading up to the final showdown with Bowser. 3, to a stage that is a direct throwback to Super Mario 64, old fans will be pleased. From a giant world that is reminiscent of Super Mario Bros. Regarding level design, there a lot to love in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Instead of the observatory featured in the original game that required you to run all over the place to access the different galaxies, Super Mario Galaxy 2 replaces this system with the central вЂњfaceshipвЂќ created in MarioвЂ™s likeness where you can interact with NPCs, and a traditional map-based navigation system to access the gameвЂ™s levels, which is much faster and nostalgic. This is incredibly fun and satisfying, especially in combination with the leap jump, which is required to get to some of the final stars.ДЄnother noteworthy addition, or modification, is the change in level navigation. On the other hand, while Cloud Mario may look absolutely ridiculous (I guess Bee Mario is also guilty of this), the main idea is that you can create a cloud platform at will with a waggle of the Wii remote. ItвЂ™s also used in a few specific stages including a fun bowling stage. Rock Mario allows Mario to turn into a boulder that crashes through enemies and obstacles. In terms of new suits, everyone has been talking about Rock Mario and Cloud Mario. You can also control Luigi at any time in Super Mario Galaxy 2, which I know will please fans, although his enhanced jumping height is offset by his slippery feet. These levels were a lot of fun, and really added a lot to the experience. Eating enemies turns them into starbits, while eating blue fruit turns Yoshi into a big bag of gas that lets you reach new heights and eating red chili peppers allows Yoshi to run up steep inclines and over water. He has all his familiar moves intact, including his extended jump and his ability to eat things, which is strangely satisfying. While heвЂ™s not available on every stage, you will find yourself looking forward to the times you do get to use him. There are some new elements thrown in as well that enhance the experience. There are tons of stars to collect along with the return of the pesky (and often challenging) prankster comments that include speed runs, daredevil runs, and purple coin comets. Those who played the original Super Mario Galaxy will be immediately familiar with many elements of the game, including the controls, visual style, the same mini-bosses, and even some reused music. The story unfolds on the pages of a book that the player actually controls, causing the page to flip when the player reaches the end of the screen. to save his вЂњspecial one.вЂќ Even though the game is not heavy on plot, I did enjoy how the intro was presented. Mario teams up with the Lumas once again to collect stars, explore new worlds, and do battle with Bowser and Bowser Jr. Bowser is huge (he even opens with the line, вЂњIвЂ™m HUUUUUUGE!вЂќ) and has kidnapped Princess Peach and taken her to the center of the galaxy. In fact, IвЂ™ll attempt do that, but I do want to talk a bit about the game while IвЂ™m at it.ДЇirst of all, just like with any Mario game, thereвЂ™s not much in terms of a story. The fact of the matter is that thereвЂ™s so much going on in the audio department with Super Mario Galaxy 2 that I could fill an entire review just talking about it. So, is Super Mario Galaxy 2 just a simple upgrade, or does it offer something entirely new thatвЂ™s worth your attention? Find out in our review after the jump. IвЂ™ll say that I was pleasantly surprised by the game, the music, and the use of audio even though, for the most part, it was more of the same that Nintendo established with the first game. IвЂ™m one of those people who avoids all trailers, videos, screenshots, and general information when it comes to games IвЂ™m really excited about, so I had no idea what to expect from SMG2 aside from Yoshi making an appearance. IвЂ™ve been looking forward to it for such a long time, as the first game was my favorite game on the Wii, and I had high hopes for what composers Mahito Yokota and Koji Kondo would cook up for this round. I canвЂ™t believe the release of Super Mario Galaxy 2 has already come and gone.
