If you're got enough time and you don't mind getting kicked out of the store after a while, all GameStops should have the FULL version of Galaxy in their Wii demo units. We had someone play for over 3 hours today. I had to erase the game save after he was done just so someone wouldn't beat the game. So if you don't know if you'll like it, or if you don't want to spend the money to play it, go to GameStop/EB Games.

But don't buy anything.

I'm definitely gonna be getting this, but unfortunately I'm hella poor so I have to just ask for it for Christmas, and on the rare chance I DON'T get it, I'll have to use some of the $100 I get every Christmas to go buy it the next day.

Makes me sad I won't be able to play it right away though =( I started playing through Super Mario Sunshine again just to get at least a little bit of my Mario fix taken care of.

I'm not conceited. I'm as good as I say I am.

Already preordered; it's just playing the waiting game now. :P

But with school and work (working in retail during the holidays sucks, especially at a toy store) while most will beat and reap the jawesome of this game in a week's time, I'll easily be into this probably until late December.

Man, that video review was great. I think he was exaggerating with the whole REINVENTING THE GENRE thing but the gameplay looks insanely fun and level design seems pretty innovative as well! It's coming out on the same day as Crysis so awesome time ahead!

I'll give this a try... the bad guy is Bowser and the Princess is now the next Sheik, and... um... Geno is the final boss... god that would be hilarious if that was true...

But seriously, I might give this game here a go.

I must say that this game makes me want Wii.. (along with SSBB of course) I'm happy Nintendo nailed this, at least according to reviews and peoples opinions. But, but.. I need money for bigger things at the moment. I will however get Wii one day.

I loved sunshine and I am looking forward to buying this in the coming two months. I still am wary about how the wii controls will work on a platformer, though.

Bioshock renewed my love for videogames. Now, ever since I bought a Wii - it's only collected dust. But this game, judging by the videos, some play, and stunning reviews, is the reason we bought a Wii - the reason we play games. I used to love platformers back in the N64 days (Banjo-Kazooie and Conker's Bad Fur Day are some of my all time favorite games) but like rpgs they became stale over the years. Galaxy seems different. Not only does the level design look extraordinary, the theme and controls are highly intuitive.

All in all this holiday season is going to be something. I've been looking forward to Assassin's Creed all this time and then there is Mass Effect. Galaxy has taken me by surprise as I wasn't expected it to turn out this goood. But I know what I'll be getting for thanksgiving break.

Grave Spirit was released on July 11, 2006.

I have this pre-ordered and it is supposed to be absolutely amazing. I can't wait until I play it! Many reviews stated that it has redefined what a platformer should be.

I'm impressed with Nintendo.
I really though this game was going to be a weak Mario platformer. Judging from the reviews, this looks to be the next Mario 64.
I think I'm going to actually pick this up. It's going to be the first Mario game I've bought in years.

I had my doubts, but this is probably the best Mario game (also best platformer in general ) I've played in a long time.
