I'm just up to the first level of World 5 now - still really enjoying it, although some of the levels in World 4 were a bit samey. I really love how much they've done with the interaction between the background and the foreground; it makes what Paper Mario did with it look incredibly tame by comparison.

Did anyone that ordered with GAME get it today? :hmm:

 

Reading everyones thoughts and impressions of the game is killing me. I can't believe that im not playing one of my most anticipated games of the year just because of some stupid snow! :(
It is indeed painful. :sad:

I plan to go on a killing spree* to take my mind off it.

 

*on GoldenEye. :heh:

I didn't get it today either. Didn't get Super Mario All Stars either. Don't think we got any post today. I have something ordered on special delivery and according to the tracking it hasn't moved all day.

 

Stupid snow.

Yeah, mine is from GAME. I haven't had post in a couple of days though, probably due to the snow. I read my email again and I see that it didn't get dispatched til late afternoon, so it could be that's why it didn't arrive.

 

If you see anyone on Goldeneye that look's like he works for GAME or Royal Mail then shoot him for me. :D

Jesus this is hard. I'm talking Henry Hatsworth hard. Just died 19 times on a boss but literally couldn't put the controller down.

But it's perfectly tuned, so it's always your own fault.

 

The locales are splendid and you've really got to explore EVERYWHERE for the 'jiggies'. It's like a Metroid game or something *chortle* as the hidden stuff borders on legendary.

You know when you're an old gaming pr0 and you just 'get' clever videogame logic/design as the hidden items are where you expect? This does that and then spins your head blowing your mind with trickery beyond human comprehension.

 

It also makes NSMB:Wii look like it was made by amateurs.

Already one of my favourite games on Wii. Best 2D platformer since poppycocking Hatssworth on the DS? So far: yes.

I think we all know someone who does not want to here that :grin:

 

I can't wait to play this.. even though I am waiting :indeed: I have no idea when I'll actually get around to buying it! I feel overloaded already and I'd quite like to get through Banjo-Tooie before moving onto this. At least I know it's gonna be fantastic when I do get around to it :yay:

WTF. Gold on time attack. Genuinely impossible. Literally.

 

Seconded. You know you're loving it though. The more you look the deeper it gets and the challenge is brilliant.

 

I wanna master every pixel of this game and become a hardcore DK player all over again.

My local GAME didn't have any copies of this in. Haven't had a delivery days although they some how managed to get plenty of copies of Super Mario All-Stars Collection ::shrug:

 

So I braved it and took a 20 mile+ bus journey up to Dundee (Was heading up there anyway) and got it in the GAME there along with the T-shirt as they were just giving them away with the game. :D That store did the exact same with the Mirror's Edge Fenchurch T-shirt a few years back as well.

 

I'll pop it in a little to see what it's like but I really need to warm up and have some lunch first so I shall.
