Can I just say this: in 2nd Dome, against its Final Boss, listen to the SPECTACULAR battle theme song, and the battle itself is wicked too.

Note: Gotta get me the soundtrack, ripped or bought, Nintendo get on it, I will give you more of my money.

P.S.: The coin, from the pre-order bonus, is of good quality even though it will never have any monetary value.

Well I picked up my copy a few hours ago and just now had the time to sit down and start playing, and it doesn't work. I put the disc in and it doesn't register and the disc channel icon remained blank. I tried several times and still nothing, and I put BWii back in and it still worked so it has to be the disc. Unfortunately it's too late and the store's closed now so I have to wait another day to play. GameStop will give you a refund if you return a defective game and they don't have another copy, right? It's bad enough having to wait another day, I'd better not have to wait more than that.

That's terrible

I think God's testing you..

Caliban · « **Reply #728 on:** November 13, 2007, 02:17:14 PM »

Why would I test insanolord?! Silly IceCold...us gods don't test humans, we would rather play Super Mario Galaxy. By the way insanolord, if anyone is to blame is Loki...we always point our guilty fingers to him, poor guy, he's probably going columbine on us some day.

I would have been happy even if that had been the final boss battle...It was very awesome...

Insano Lord, it was blank at first for me too. But once I clicked on the blank disc channel, it asked me if I wanted to an update. It was a quick update and then it showed Super Mario Galaxy on the channel.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #732 on:** November 13, 2007, 03:13:39 PM »

Oh, by the way, my impressions so far: WOW.

Actually now that I think about it they do, or at least I've gotten one before. It was Age of Empires DS, I bricked 2 copies back before they figured out why they were bricking and I got a refund. Though I'm pretty sure I got it from one of the guys there that I know well and is pretty cool. So just to be safe I'm hoping he's working tomorrow.

EDIT: ShyGuy, I did what you said and it worked! Thanks!

Age of Empires DS is an AMAZING game because it broke on me two times, and I was so addicted that I turned right around and bought another copy from Gamestop at full price... /cry

I don't think I'd have rebought FarCry twice if it broke on me. Games can be fun and amazing and great and that's one thing, but when a game starts cutting into your sleeping time, your studyin' time, your being-awake time, your eatin' time... that's totally dangerous and on some weird other level altogether. Mario Galaxy will make me do all that, but because it's totally awesome. Age of Empires made me do all that, but the addiction was against my will, and I was actually HAPPY when the game broke the first two times because I could start living life again.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #738 on:** November 13, 2007, 04:36:00 PM »

Yeah AoE DS is great, possibly even better than Advance Wars. I kept checking the official forums and once they figured out what was bricking the games (user names under 4 characters long) I bought another copy. I haven't gotten too far into it, but that's true of all my games. I hope I find the time to go back and play more of it someday, because it's one of my two absolute favorite portable strategy games that weren't made by Intelligent Systems.

I thought I entered the wrong topic for a second...Get back on track...

21 stars here...I wanted to get all the stars in the second dome before heading onto the second boss, but I couldn't resist... =(

IceCold · « **Reply #740 on:** November 13, 2007, 05:08:26 PM »

I've started playing, and my friends.. this is why I play videogames. I'll be taking a hiatus from the forums for a few days to devote every ounce of my free time to Galaxy.. but I can't praise the game enough. Anyone notice the small details, like the awesome tunnel theme song as you collect the music notes?

Pure gaming bliss.

Kairon · « **Reply #742 on:** November 13, 2007, 07:24:03 PM »

Playing this game still with my roommate. Maybe we'll beat it tomorrow. Is it possible for a game to be TOO good? That's what this makes me think of...

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #743 on:** November 13, 2007, 07:50:13 PM »

Well I have "completed" the second galaxy and WOW what a rush. Spoilers for 2nd galaxy final boss

Is it just me or is this incarnation of Bowser the coolest? I know this is only the first time I fight him BUT WOW. Talk about fun, and he has so much personality. He truly feels like Mario's arch nemesis. Oh yeah, that stage was crazy too

Larson · « **Reply #744 on:** November 13, 2007, 08:40:40 PM »

I'm 35 Stars deep in this epic game and it has already blown my mind on multiple occasions. Buy it now! (if you haven't already)

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #745 on:** November 13, 2007, 10:55:04 PM »

I can confirm the action sequences in the intro are just 60fps FMVs.

NICE TO SEE NINTENDO USING THAT EXTRA DISC SPACE.

Now why didn't Metroid Prime 3 have such advanced technology?

Ninty were too busy not making Prime 3 ads

I'm Enjoying the game. Especially since I can play Co-op with my Wife. On that side of things I wish the second player could manipulate the environment a little more. Like activate draw stars, hurl the coconuts, or pull back those little punching bag plants.

Remind me sometime to recount my tell of what it took to get this game. It was not an easy endeavour to say the least and almost totalled my car. Also never shop Toys'R'Us.

couchmonkey · « **Reply #748 on:** November 14, 2007, 02:05:04 AM »

Can't find the darn game! ME WANTEE. I'm literally dreaming about it every night.

Kenology · « **Reply #749 on:** November 14, 2007, 02:34:50 AM »

I just stopped in to say that... this game is WIN. Thank you.
