Super Mario Galaxy is the greatest game ever made. Mario controls beautifully and the platforming is all built on his movement, which allows you to just move around elegantly through the level, even the water levels are good.The gravity mechanic is easily the best mechanic in any platformer, it makes the movement so fluid so seamless, and the spin move makes the platforming so satisfying as it helps you adjust a mistake and gives you a boost that allows you to come up with ways to jump longer or higher and its just so satisfying when it comes in clutch to make that shortcut. The design of the galaxies were hand crafted by god, each planet already has the best level design but gives it that charm. All of the galaxies are filled with life and got so much personality but some of my favorites are Good egg Galaxy, Honeyhive Galaxy, Bowser's star reactor, Bowser's galaxy reactor, Gusty Garden Galaxy, Freezeflame Galaxy, Toy Time Galaxy, Battlerock Galaxy, and Beach Bowl Galaxy. The music, oh my god the music is so majestic, it is the greatest OST in gaming history, every galaxy has tracks that just add to its charm. Gusty Garden Galaxy is the best song in gaming, nothing will ever come close, but its not to shine out other galaxies such as Good Egg Galaxy, Beach Bowl Galaxy, Ghostly Galaxy, Space Junk Galaxy, Melty Molten Galaxy and many more. The Comet Observatory is the best hub in any game with such a majestic song. Now, this game can get very emotional as its the most dramatic a Mario game has gotten, the first cutscene is so cinematic and it makes Bowser the most menacing he has ever been. The fist cutscene where bowser takes the castle is so dramatic and cinematic that it instantly makes this journey feel much more important. It also installs wonder in the player as they traverse the game and the final scene where you storm Bowser's Galaxy Reactor and the level being a combination of every mechanic makes it truly feel so epic. Another emotion this game makes you feel is sadness with Rosalina's Storybook. The music that plays as you read the story paired with the emotional story never fails to make me cry. No words can explain it, you truly need to experience it. Some may have issues with the motion control but i like the manta ray and star ball mission. The manta ray is so fast paced and the music is so catchy, and the star ball is so anxiety inducing as you try to maneuver the ball to the end goal without falling, and the music adds to it as it slows down or speeds up depending on how you move. Super Mario Galaxy is simply the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be. 100/100 you need to play this masterpiece
