Mr. Natbuc played this the other day. Speaking to him on MSN, he wan't impressed.

He critiscised the gameplay for being too boring to do.

The grpahics for being below standard

And the controls rubbish when you bounce off walls.

Not only has this put me intirely off the game, but it also proves that Edge is very biased.

That is all.

To be honest, fudge you to anyone who thinks this games gonna suck.

Mario has always and will always be the king of platform games, many games have tryed to beat him but it's just the Nintendo touches that make him stick out from the crowd. I'm almost soiling myself in anticipation to this game and I wont be dissapointed, it's an update of Mario 64 which is one of my favourite games ever, I can't wait.

In inequality terms, the PS2 lineup is greater than, or equal to, the GC lineup.

Well that doesn't reflect well on the game really. If only people who have only GC's can appreciate it then it's basically saying "Only bitter people who are jealous like it because it's all they have". But really the GameCube has a great line up of games. Ok, maybe not as good as the PS2's, but still there are great games coming up. Certainly better than the XBox line up, in my opinion.

Did that make sense?

I will only listen to the opinion of a ninty really. Other console gamers wont be able to appreiciate it methinks.

I think a game in the mould of the first level on SSBM Adventure would be more successful.

That's exactly what I was afraid of - nice to look at and move around but little to actually interest you in the game. I'll probably still get it hough, maybe take it back if it's really not working for me.
