    For effectively as long as gaming has been around, Mario platformers have set standards for everyone else to try and meet. Not just within the platformer genre either, all games aim to emulate the quality of a Mario game, with their tight controls, imaginative gameplay, beautiful graphics or even just tunes that’ll stick in your head.

    Super Mario Galaxy is an amazing feat, a world of exploration that will keep anyone entertained for hours. The large amount of stars assure a solid length of many worlds, each as exciting and interesting as the last. The characters and Nintendo charm is immeasurable, the Luma star characters alone carrying enough cutesy charm to bring the toughest biker thug to tears. If only there was a bit more challenge, to slow the more seasoned gamers from chewing through each star... Read more

    A brilliant game that never gets dull. Great graphics, Great gameplay and Great soundtrack all add up to the best game on the Wii. It's a shame that the game is slighty easy and short but still terrific stuff that every Wii owner must have. ... Read more
