No thanks, I am currently renting it, and its getting really frustrating with the controls from the wonky camera work. -.-

I already bought it from Toys R Us. Love it though.

I wish, there's no Circuit City or TRU near here.

"Really frustrating with the controls from the wonky camera work"

You've got to be kidding? Actually you probably aren't.

The game camera is almost perfect. It's actually very, very clever. Plus, limiting the manual camera movement at certain areas is exactly what sets the play up. Making the player work at their control skills and forcing the player to pay attention to distances etc.

Simply being able move the camera into the perfect position everytime, behind Mario as you simply hold UP and run pefectly across a log isn't always what is needed.

Anyway....back on topic. Galaxy retails at £39.99 here in the UK - with most places actually selling it around the £32-33 mark.
And, like MP3:Corruption before it, I bought the game from tgrav.com - which had free UK shipping on both games for just £27.55.

Which I thought was pretty good.

Today only, Dell.ca is selling SMG for that price.

If only I had waited another weekend. Oh well, I'm enjoying it right now. Whoever designed the Sweet Sweet Galaxy must enjoy watching people being tortured. That's was almost as frustrating as the Tick Tock Clock level in Mario 64!

My nearest Circuit City is more than an hour away up near Buffalo, and I don't think I want to brave the regular Black Friday traffic plus the influx of Canadians coming across the border because their dollar is stronger just to get it. I'm plenty busy with the games I have now.

Sweet Sweet Galaxy definitely sticks out in my mind too. It helps to go in with like 40 lives =-)


Seriously, though, you have to spend a *lot* of time airborne, and you also have to get a bit lucky with where the holes fall. Some runs are almost impossible to beat, but if you're patient and keep trying, you'll get it -- the course is actually very short. It *is* evil, though...

Dude, the Sweet sweet Galaxy is awessome! It's nowhere nearas difficult as TickTock Clock, if you don't manage to freeze all the gears!

I got BestBuy to match the TRU gift card deal and used some reward zone points.

I wish there were some harder levels. Sweet Sweet Galaxy is a fun level, but it's actually not a hard level, for me anyway. As a matter of fact, I just decided to play that level again right now after reading that you guys think it is hard, and beat it on my very first try. The trick is to use the long jump a lot and know where and when to use it, it becomes very easy after that. I wish there were tons of "extra" levels similar to that, but longer and with smaller spots to jump to and even enemies trying to knock you off the platforms.
