These past few days I’ve been playing this game. It’s really good….it’s been forever since I’ve played a Mario title (like…Mario 3…is it called Mario 3?). Yeah..you can tell I’m not a huge Mario fan, and I’ve never had a nintendo before the Wii so I haven’t had a lot of experience with him.

There are lots of challenging puzzles in this game. A lot of it has to do with jumping. The guild for WoW that I used to be in always said that girls can’t jump. I’m not sure if that means compared to guys, but I went through a really difficult jumping galaxy in Mario Galaxy that I’m pretty proud of. These large moving platforms with huge shaped holes scroll through and you try to race across it. And then the platforms alternate right and left four times as you run across all 4….and then there is a circular platform…and then platforms scrolling towards you with a laser obstacle and jumping pods to get to the end. That was tough stuff….but I finally got through it. Yaaaay me!

And for the record, I’ve only missed my jump for Thaddius in Naxx once. It was my first time, and it wasn’t because I missed the jump. I didn’t know there was this half circleish curved edge on the platform and fell through it.
