I mean, what else is there to say about one of the great games of our time? Mario Galaxy is a masterpiece, with pitch-perfect platforming, visuals that still look as beautiful today as they did in 2007, a stunning score that might be the best in all of gaming, and a surprisingly touching storyline for a Mario game (the franchise famous for never even having a storyline), there's just nothing in this game to dislike. Even the stuff that doesn't work, namely the rolling ball and manta ray stages, are little more than minor gripes in the grand scheme of things. This was my first time ever completing the game, and while I need a bit of a break before I dive back in as Luigi, I can safely say this was an amazing experience that I'm glad I went through. Although my favourite Mario game is still Odyssey, Galaxy will always have a special place in my heart.
