Got about 6 or so more stars today and I'm onto the 2nd world. I'm hoping there's at least 8 so they're be a good few more Bowser and Bowser Jr. bosses. But all the bosses so far have been great. There's been quite a few of them as well.

No need to play the first one - there's no spoilers in this second game as it doesn't carry on from the first. It's set in an alternate timeline.

I hate the Fluzzard levels :twisted:

And bloody hell, the "Silver Stars in double time" had me screaming abuse at the telly big time. Finally completed it with one life to go, I really did not want to have to start that one from the start again!

Funnily enough, I was only saying to my OH the other day that I am very slightly disappointed with it - from the trailers I saw, it looked really WOW! but I haven't really seen any WOW stuff :roll:

And I seem to have gotten to the "end level" very quickly (now doing star mop up duties!) and I don't think it is more difficult than the first one. Some levels I've breezed through and others are just plain fucking annoying (hope it's ok to swear here?) - too many edges to fall or get pushed off etc.

Don't get me wrong, I am really enjoying it, otherwise I'd not still be playing but the excitement levels dropped fairly quickly :(

At least I know where to get 99 lives quickly ;)

It's good. That's all you need to know.

Actually, it's slightly more than I expected. The creativity hasn't died down one bit. This is really what New Super Mario Bros. Wii should have been on the sequel.

I'm up to 114 stars now and it's peeing me off now - got two Chimp levels in those 6 left to get to 120 and I can't even get close. Guess it's time to find an online vid and see where I am going wrong before I throw the Wiimote at the telly and incur the wrath of the OH.

And I can't find the comet thingy in the Flight Guide galaxy so that's another one to look up.

My OH keeps going around saying "It's me.....Mario" despite me telling him that Mario doesn't say it in this game :twisted:

Oh bugger. I knew someone would beat me to it.

Haven't played it since last week, thought having a break might help :lol:

It does with me. I got the game this Tuesday bought for me for passing my driving theory test, (when the advert was shown i said i was going to get that)

I have not started it yet, will hopefully start it on monday as i am finishing my current game Sonic and the Black Knight. This also means that all my backlog games (3) will have to wait.

I am looking forward to this and have watched the dvd that came with it (just to see what it was like mind)

Glad to see you both like it.

The DVD actually has some neat content to it, namely the challenges and tricks section.

I watched all of it, well except for the gallery movies , only watched the first challenges and i agree if gives some good content like shortcuts and stuff that casual gamers may not know about let alone do.

Ooh well done on passing your driving test cjay Image

Do you know, I saw the hints DVD and never thought to watch it, I'm stuck at 118 and pissed off bigtime now - the fiery boss thing at the end of Boss Blitz comet level keeps getting me, and the effing hamster ball coins run in same world, can't even get close on that one :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Those were the two that kept getting to me near the end as well. I had to try the 'hamster ball run' a few times and the fiery piranha dude twice - which was annoying since I had to beat all the bosses again. Or maybe it was three times.

Currently I'm collecting the 'green stars', which I won't spoil for you.

I can do the top half of the hamster ball no probs, just can't get down to the bottom, let alone with enough coins. I've always hated the ball levels :(

I have about 140 stars atm. Some of the Green Stars are really hard. There are 242 in the whole game (regular, comet, green, etc.).

I've not really been playing it but I finally got 120 stars although that last Hamster ball level that was stopping me I didn't get gold, only bronze. Went looking for green stars but none there. It seems I need to beat the Final Bowser yet again - I've already done it twice as I didn't get the comet thingy 1st time thru.

I'm playing Lego Harry Potter instead - on the PC with a USB xbox controller - can't believe the price of the PC version compared to the consoles, talk about cheap!

Having to beat Bowser again annoyed me because I was in the same situation as you. I've got over 160 stars at the moment but I've taken an actual break from the game now.

I adore the game. Miles better than Galaxy 1, and so much creative and fun.

In all there are 242 stars, so I've heard. Green stars are stars you collect after you reach the 120 mark - they're in random places throughout the levels and I imagine there's 121 or 122 of them.

oh lord looks like i still have a long way to got. Have 25 (all that are available) stars and all of the comet stars so far bar two( the end of world boss levels because i am afraid to try and get them as they are near a thwomp an enemy)

some of the secrete stars are so easy to see/get its unbelievable, as is how short some levels are (the bird level about 2 minuets including the tutorial)
