Atomic Boo Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 hi, i loved the supermonkey ball game on the gamecube, really addictive and great multiplayer,so i bought the sequel. it wasnt that brilliant in many ways there were improvements, like the party games were updated, but the main game levels sucked, all of them were gimmicks and it wasnt as much skill you needed anyone else dissappointed with this game when they played it?

Bo130 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I really hate that they removed the competition mode from the 2nd game. That one rocked, would have liked it to last a whole set of levels, though, instead of just 5. For most parts, the party games are better in the 2nd game. I happen to like it more, now, as I've found several ways to complete each main level, and that keeps me on it. The only real complaint that remains is, that you can easily beat Master and Master Extra, given the 99 lives you can purchase. The original was so much harder to beat Master 10 in - I still have nightmares about Master 3 :P - three insane levels compiled into one; great stuff! (if you didn't know, then it determines (sp?) on the number of continues you use, and in SMB1 you won continues instead of lives . The series is great overall, though. Absolutely love it.

Kurtle Squad Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Haven't got round to getting the 2nd one yet......AAAAAHHHHHHHH....wish I wasnt so poor!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faz99 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 i haven't touched the second one because i still have not fully completed the first one. I tried Master 3 about 400 times straight for more than three hours. No luck. I mean, to get to the masters in the first place is an achievement in itself, because you got all 50 levels without a continue, then 10 experts, then 10 (i think) masters, but Master 3 is where i would coin near impossible. Like, it looks easy, but, ITS NOT. It drove me fucking insane. Worst thing was i spent around an hour playing it a week later in training mode, and i finished it. I fluked it by falling straight into the goal from one of the square. I was like.. WTF? *Cries a little* Damn you super monkey ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Liked both of them. I'm impressed with how well the stylus works in Monkey Ball DS. Not quite as good as the analogue, but then more I play it the better it feels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Boo Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 when have you played the DS one then bluestar? it says that there are minigames available on the wifi connection too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 A mate had the jap version, only had a quick blast on it though. Didn't have a look at the wifi stuff, but it was all in japanese anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo130 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I'm pretty sure you mean wireless. Last time I checked, SMB DS wasn't online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Android18a Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 SMB2 felt like luck was needed as much as skill, too much of the time. Too many moving set pieces and wierd obstructions for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 One thing I did notice when I was playing it, you seem to get an extra life every 10 or so bananas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh64 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 I likws super monkey ball 2, not quite as much as the first one but it was still really fun, especially the later levels. I hope Monkeyball DS is online! That would be great but of its not I don't mind, it just means i'd have more time to upper my wins on Mario kart. Some levels were a bit too weird, there was tons of moving objects etc and u just had to hope for the best and try and get lucky on some levels.

Atomic Boo Posted January 21, 2006 Author Share Posted January 21, 2006 yeah, can you remember struggling with the giant comb level on advanced, and switch inferno on hard. i found out how to do switch inferno on an faq and its like wtf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 I prefer 2 to 1, mainly because i play multi more that single player. But as others have said, later levels are too reliant on luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynamo Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Never had 1, but 2 is excellent - multi-player its fantastic! Me and my mates played throughout the night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
