    Just plain fun it's linear but thats what makes it fun unlike 64 or Sunshine where you need to learn on how to move

    This game is amazing. It's no wonder why this game is often referred to as "the best mario game" or even "the best game ever." just everything about this game is amazing. the graphics are still great, the controls are just fantastic, the soundtrack is epic, and overall, this is a game that I can see myself playing for a long time.

    Tout d'abord le point qui m'a le plus marqué à l'époque l'univers et les boss. Quand tu arrives pour la première fois dans l'observatoire j'étais, et je le suis toujours, émerveillé. Et en rentrant dans la première galaxie planète œuf le jeu révèle toute sa force, son univers. Le sentiment d'espace est très plaisant et bluffant, jusqu'à arriver au premier boss qui est originale. Pour moi le jeu atteint son paroxysme dans la galaxie poussière d'étoile qui est pour moi la meilleure galaxie du jeu avec son sentiment d'immensité et d'infini qui apporte une forme de mélancolie appuyé par la musique magistrale de ce niveau ce qui va m'emmener sur la deuxième force du jeu ses musiques.
    Les musiques dans ce jeu sont pour moi les meilleures musiques des jeux Mario. J'ai parlé précédemment de la musique de poussière d'étoile mais il y en a tant d'autre comme la musique de l'écran d'accueil, ou la musique de planètes oeufs. Ces musiques renforcent les sentiments de grandeur et d'immensité de ce jeu.
    Je voudrais m'attarder vite fait sur un autre plan crucial du jeu les boss. Pour moi ces boss sont les meilleures de tous les jeu Mario confondu (excepté les Browser), j'ai une préférence pour Poulpoboss et les Bowser junior.
    Pour conclure, Mario Galaxie est pour moi un des meilleurs jeu de tous les temps par son univers incroyable. J'ai une préférence pour le premier opus car il est pour moi plus magistrale que le deuxième. Bref Nintendo faite une suite s'il vous plait.    … Expand

    My First Wii Game of all Time, and for me the Best Mario Adventure of all Time. All the Galaxies are absolutely Awesome in every Aspect and the fun factor is very big at the same Time. And that's not all that makes the game great, it also tells a story that is extremely sad and made me shed a tear. I still hope that FINALLY the third Game will come, which will blow me and all of us away.

    This is my favorite game of all time, the graphics are beautiful, the music makes you feel like you're in the same planet as Mario and the camera, although sometimes works a little bit weird, is great. But even with that makes the game a high score, the level design and the story are amazing, an the fact that you can play with Luigi, please check it out if you haven't play it before.

It also doesn't have to open ended levels that the previous games have but for me mario was kind of meant to be linear. I also want to say that the levels are inventive. The developers put in their best efforts in the galaxy games in my opinion rather than even games like mario odyssey. However there are a few things I don't like about the game. It has a bad spring power up, it also lets the second player troll the first player and it doesn't help that there's not much to do as player 2. While I thought the final battle was good, I felt like it was a bit of a repeat of the other bowser battles but then again it was like that in 64 as well. Lastly I used to hate the song that plays when you go to roselina's library but now I like it. It's ok to cry.… Expand

    Like Super Mario 64 did, Super Mario Galaxy has defined (yet again) 3D movements in open space, adding a twist to the already perfect formula.
    The game takes an old approach: like in Mario 64, starting in a tutorial-like area, and then letting the player choose the level and the objective he wants to accomplish, and like Mario 64, there is no need to complete all of them.

    The game takes an old approach: like in Mario 64, starting in a tutorial-like area, and then letting the player choose the level and the objective he wants to accomplish, and like Mario 64, there is no need to complete all of them.
    What is new though is the level design. Each level is built around the concept of gravity. The first level, for example, has a small world that can be circumnavigated in a few seconds, and to advance to the next part, we need to jump high enough to get attracted to the gravity of the very next world.
    The entire game is built around this concept and how to manipulate it to your advantage, which makes it very fun to experiment new ways to complete a level, often leading the player in finding secrets.
    Mario also has different new power-ups like the ice flower, which let Mario walk on water ad freeze enemies; or the bee mushroom, which let him fly for a brief period and lean on flowers.
    The songs of Super Mario Galaxy are incredible, not only do they fit every level, but are performed by an entire orchestra, making them a blessing for your ears.
    The boss fight is quite the show. The player will face giant foes generated by baby bowser to stop him. Each one of them is different, but all of them are entertaining.
    Super Mario Galaxy has demonstrated that there are yet so many ideas left off videogames, and it reminded us what having fun really is.

    What more is there to say other than this is one of the best games made by humankind. Everything is perfect: the visuals, gameplay, music, design, etc.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Best game I've ever played. Period. The story is your typical Mario "oh no! the princess was captured by evil turtle man, now italian plumber must save her (but it's in space this time)" story, but everything else is just glorious. The gameplay, the music (Jesus the music is so good, not a single track is bad imo) and the levels, design concepts and enemies are incredibly creative. Also, once you've collected all 120 power stars, you get to play as Luigi! However, once you get 120 power stars, you get to play as Luigi, and you have to play the whole game over again, with no differences except for Luigi's higher jump and less stable movement (the no new missions thing was fixed in the sequel). But the game was so good I didn't really mind. There are Prankster Comets that come by and change the gameplay of a level, for example, if a Prankster Comet lands on a level, you could have to collect a bunch of purple coins in that level, or have a race with a clone of yourself (I loved these). The ending is heartwarming, and a little sad, too. Just the best game ever, If God had a favorite game, it might be Super Mario Galaxy, It's that good, man, just play it. 10/10, such a damn good game.… Expand

    Loved it as a kid still love it as an adult. It's like how much creativity can you put in a game? Almost no limit when it comes to Mario games. Only bad thing is the Boss fight machanics are very similar in each fight, the Boss Fights can't keep up with the creativity of the rest of the game.

    Super Mario Galaxy is literally the definition of perfection. Both Galaxy and Galaxy 2 are the cream of the crop in terms of the greatest games ever made.

    - it’s interesting feeling being able to jump off a seemingly endless drop but having gravity pull you around to the other side of the planet.

    - the motion controls gameplay segments are really fun. Like rolling the ball, and surfing.

    - shooting star bits at enemies and other things is fun. There’s also an incentive to collect star bits by feeding the fat luma to unlock a new galaxy.

    - the controls are very smooth. Spinning is a nice “second chance”

    - soaring through space from one asteroid to another feels great

    - the power ups are a lot of fun. And a lot of new ones. They are used in a very fun way with the stage designs.

    - bowser’s hair is styling

    - the gravity gameplay is really creative and fun. Both 2D segments and 3D.

    - I like the story book segments. Learning about Rosalina's past was interesting. It provided me incentive to progress in the game to unlock new chapters.

    Bad

    - the game is a tad too easy. Your platforming doesn’t even have to be perfect. If you nick and edge, the game will plop you right over it. The overall level designs were easier than other Mario games too.    … Expand

    It still stands up to this day in my opinion. The game is phenomenal. This game is enjoyable for anyone of any age and still stands up today against modern Mario titles like Super Mario Odyssey. And a lot of new people have played the game recently from the release of Super Mario 3D All Stars last year making the game accessible on modern hardware being the Switch.

Unlike previous Mario games which were always goofy in style and a little clunky here and there, this game just oozes with elegance and refinement, both in art style and level design (and also the incredible soundtrack).

    The only significant flaw is that prankster comet stars are kind of cheap and uninteresting, and also repetitive, and having to go from one dome to another to do the comet stars can get annoying. Other than that, it's a masterpiece, especially if played at glorious 1080p on the Switch version.

This game was even better than when I was a child. Every single aspect honestly blew me away. The music is grand and fantastic, and does an incredible job at complementing each level. The graphics and art-style are insane for 2007. The atmosphere is unlike any video game ever made. Its so rich. Every single location is memorable, and I really feel sucked into this world. Everything is so creative, unique, crazy, fun, and experimental. And I haven't even talked about the gameplay yet... Every single level is throwing at you new concepts, and ideas, with absolutely brilliant linear platforming that is unlike anything in any other video game ever made. This is one game I would recommend to everyone. No matter what kind of game you like. This is in my opinion the greatest video game that has ever been made, and nothing even comes close. I'm just so happy that this exists. Please play this, you wont regret it.… Expand

    La banda sonora es la mejor banda sonora es la mejor en cualquier juego de nintendo. La ambientación es perfecta, ya sea en el espacio o en la playa. Los controles no son muy buenos, a veces inexactos, pero compensa. La batalla final contra Bowser es insuperable. Las mecánicas son las mejores de Mario. La calidad ( dentro de las posibilidades de la WII) es muy buena.

    When I'm in the right mood, this is one of the best Mario games I've played. The music is probably my favorite part about it, but the game itself is still a blast, even years later. Some levels make me want to use regular controls at times, but overall, it's a fun game.

The soundtrack also makes up for the few flaws with its gameplay, and sometimes it can get frustrating, but often times the beautiful, dramatic, or even just flat out magical definitely keeps me from throughout my controller out the window when I die with 98 purple coins on dusty dune galaxy (yes that happened to me). Overall, if Metacritic had a top soundtrack list, I feel Mario galaxy 1 AND 2 would both be at least top 5, but personally I’d say they both take the number 1 spot.… Expand

    Nintendo has crafted a platform game that, while not as technologically pioneering as its grandfather, is, level for level, more fun to play than "Mario 64." [Dec 2007, p.128]

    Galaxy proves that Mario matters just as much today as he did 25 years ago, and that makes him one of a kind in this medium. But don't play Galaxy simply because Mario is the timeless godfather of gaming. No, play Galaxy because it's fantastic.
