    Had a friend point this out. I thought it was quite funny.

    Look real close at the letters of the title on Super Mario Galaxy. Notice which ones have stars on the bottom corner? The 'starred' letters spell out U R MR GAY!

    Not knocking this great game, but it looks like something slipped past Nintendo's Q&A lol

    Woot, only have 15 red boxes left! Several of them are things that will be unlocked in time, like beating All-Star and Boss Battle with everyone and the difficulty doesnt matter for those two, along with the ones that open from beating the mode with so many people.

    Im having a hard time doing Cruel Melee. Used a hammer to open the sticker for defeating 10 enemies since that seems near impossible since I cant even get one lol. Cruel seems a lot harder than it was in Melee.

    Also what worries me is the "Clear Boss Battle on Intense" I did the Classic and All-Star on Intense since continues can be used. Just Intense seems to be so cheap, though i know its supposed to be that way.

    Any strategies for Cruel Melee and Boss Battles on the upper difficulties?

    Over the years, very few games have been heralded as perfect, or near perfect. Some critics are more strict than others, some are more lax. To me, handing out that 10.0 score is not something to be taken lightly. Only the truely best of the best should hold such a high mark.

    Here are the few that recieved the honor. Perfect!

    Games that have come close, with at least a 9.5 rating.

    With the way gamespot changed the player review system, Ive decided to make a little change of my own. Value will be Replay Value now, and Tilt will be FunFactor. Note this change is only for the games reviewed after Kingdom Hearts 1, and not for the prior reviews.

    Gameplay- How well the game's mechanics are balanced or implemented, how good the story is, and are the controls useable or bad.

    Graphics- This rating is based on how well the visuals fit the game, and not necessarily a comparison to other games' graphics.

    Sound- This rating is how well the sound/music in the game fits.

    Replay Value- Is the game worth play again or not? This rating will tell you my opinion

    Fun Factor- Overall enjoyment of the game.

    Also check at the bottom of the review to see if my score differs from what the review score says, since the .1 scoring incriments were removed.

    I like to write up fanfics, and since Okami is my favorite game. I thought it would be fun to make a story based on my ideas of what would make a neat sequel. Please keep in mind that for those that have not finished the game, there are spoilers. The parts that have been written can be found in the Okami Union forum, under the Nippon Story series.

    Please feel free to leave a comment or some constructive critism
