I've heard the music is comically bad and there aren't as many open levels to just...finish as there should be (too many objective-based levels) but it looks great. I plan to pick up my copy tomorrow.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

^...huh?

Places like 4chan and Gfaqs are flaming it to death for that score. Considering that the main reason the score crashed because it was too hard... huh.
Oh, glad to know Anonymous and The Bane of All That Is Good Gamefags are reliable sources. I'll get the game in the morning and give a real review.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Just wondering, how long did it take you guys to get used to the controls? Or have you even gotten used to them yet?

Edit: Well garth posted about the same time I did so whoops. Question answered.
Excite Truck is a good intro game for it. That said, I understood it easily.

This is the best looking Wii game so far, and I'm not just overlooking anything. Yeah, the music is comically bad, but who cares? From game analysts, I've come to agree on the music part and one other thing: the lack of open levels. Yeah some of the missions are different, but they're the same level. As far as the camera goes in this 3D game, it's really great. You end up playing as sonic from every angle short of an upskirt camera shot. Half the time the camera is moving and you think it's a cinematic, but you've got the control. The transitions in these camera angles is what really impresses me about the game. The handling yeah, it's tough, but the game itself is tough, so don't blame it on the controls. Have fun completing this game. And by which, I mean Castlevania complete. Gold rank on all of them, all the fire souls, etc. I struggle for bronze on most of them, so enjoy a real challenge.

As far as I can tell, you use two buttons in the game, short of the menu controls. Allowing a Wii title to do this is really a plus, and I'm impressed. I've played through the first world and have started the second and I'm looking forward to the gameplay content. If you're good with Excite Truck, this won't be as scary as it seems. Oh, and fuck the minigames, get Mario Party.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

You see, this is where they should have borrowed from BIG DAMN TRUCKS' in-game music selection from the SD card. I'm still on World 2, but I'm really enjoying the experience.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
