So, just tried a demo at my Wal-Mart. I only played maybe five minutes, but I liked it overall. A couple of issues for me, though:
- Mario has a lot of momentum in his run compared to other games. It caught me off guard at first. Also, something feels a little weird about how he turns. It's nothing game breaking, howevern Just something to get used to.
- In order to do a spin jump, you have to do a lot more running in tight circles so Mario starts spinning in place, then you can actually do a spin jump.

Overall, I enjoyed my time on the demo. Definitely looking forward to getting the full game.

I actually appreciated that. Not only does that added momentum make controlling Mario more enjoyable and stylistic IMO, but since the worlds are much larger than they've ever been before, being able to traverse through each world with these new momentum-based mechanics would make exploring the worlds less cumbersome. I can definitely see why they did it.

As for how he controls outside of that, I haven't noticed that much of a change. His movement feels more fluid for me, but that can only be a good thing.

Spoiler

Man, I wish Skyrim Ruined Kingdom was a real level and not just the coolest Super Mario boss battle i've even seen. That dark atmosphere had so much potential...

Since it was YouTube enforcing their terms of service agreement it makes sense

Any Londoners here, a quick heads up.

Charles Martinet himself will be at GAME in Stratford City tonight.

 

...And this is why I hate living in Devon. T_T What I’d do to meet Charles Martinet! 

I wish Amazon shipped a day earlier too. I’m still waiting on my copy and obviously I won’t get it till tomorrow morning. >< Need to play this so I can avoid the spoilers (and finally play the actual game!!).

Those scores. So many 9s and 10s.

Mario wins again, releasing one of his greatest titles in years. I'm so hyped to finally play this game, and I'm really thrilled to see it doing so well critically (and I'm sure, commercially as well). This is an amazing year for Nintendo, and I hope they keep up the momentum and keep on releasing great games into 2018 and beyond.

It’s currently on a score of 97 on Metacritic....

Nintendo, please share your game making secrets. We need more of these in the world ?

As expected, we have another critically acclaimed masterpiece on our hands. This is exactly what gaming needed right now. There's a reason this is my favorite franchise of all time. Nintendo are masters of their craft, no one makes games like they do, and they've once again proven that. Nintendo truly is back and that feels fucking great to say.

They need to share them with sonic team but that's for another topic.

No surprise here that this game is getting perfect scored.

The game is amazing! I already put 8 hours into it. I managed to collect over 100 moons already, and just defeated the mecha wiggler in Metro Kingdom.

I love the Amiibo costumes. I already got the Retro Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi, Gold Mario, Dr Mario, and Diddy Kong costumes.

I’m already enjoying this game more than any past Mario game. I’ll even say I’m having more fun with it than The Legend of Zelda: Breathe Of The Wild. BOTW got a bit boring after a few hours, but I am still hooked on Mario Odyssey!

As a huge Mario 64 fan, I can say every 3d Mario game since hasn’t made me love them more than 64, yet I can say Odyssey finally knocked 64 out of the park for me. While Sunshine and the Galaxy games weren’t bad, I mostly liked them for the visuals and music, but didn’t like the gameplay as much. Odyssey reminds me of what I loved about Mario 64, while improving upon it.

Despite already seeing how the game ends, and feeling very underwhelmed by it’s anti climatic and abrupt ending, the game is too great to be bummed out over a bad ending. It’s still a shame Mario’s biggest adventure has such an underwhelming pay off, even compared to repetitive endings from the past.

The game is a huge expansion and improvement to all past Mario games. It makes me wish Sega would be inspired to take some notes on how to make a new Sonic game that improves the Adventure formula, while adding a lot of new stuff to the table. Mario Odyssey is a great blend of old and new. I’m not even finished, yet I already can say this game is worth buying. Best game on Switch, and best Mario game in decades.

Ageed, I got so sick of 3d Mario games forcing you to hold a button to run. I’m glad they brought back actual momentum from running.

Holy shit it's real.
Can't stop keking, fuck.
If it wasn't for Nintendo buying the rights to those official erotic VHSes back in the day i would have expected the company who made porn parodies of Overwatch and Metal Gear Solid V to have one themed after this.

Can someone help me with Jump Rope Genius? I swear I can't get fucking anywhere with it. I keep tapping A at the rhythm of the Hey girl and i still can't get past 52. If I'm lucky, I can hit 70 at best.

Fucking hell, screw this minigame, they did not handle it well at all.

I got 100 in 6 or so attempts. You can't hold the button at all when jumping (once it speeds up to max) I think.

I'm tapping the button, doing my best to keep in rhythm when the girl says hey etc. No matter what I do, I keep failing it and it's getting frustrating.
