Here's why Super Mario Odyssey is so freaking great - review

2017-10-26
getting a new Mario game is very special they don't come out very often usually only once a console generation the latest one is called Super Mario Odyssey and it's easily one of my favorite Mario games of all times so let me show you why and yes that's how I say Mario I don't know what to tell you so the backstory in Odyssey is mostly familiar stuff basically all you need to know is that mario has to stop an arranged marriage between princess and Bowser to do this you jump from Kingdom to Kingdom collecting para moons to fly your hat ship thing that you're in very quickly you're given the power to capture items and creatures with your new friend a sentient hat so you can take over their bodies and play as them this feature makes Odyssey the strangest Mario game yet and that's what's awesome about it you can dig the form of chain chomps - frogs goombas and even a freaking t-rex then there's the old-school 2d 8-bit parts of the game which happened more often than I thought they would usually plastered on the side of the wall or some other clever fashion they're integrated really smartly and give the game a satisfying amount of variation along the way Mario will acquire currency exclusive to each Kingdom as well as the regular old gold coins now you can spend those at shops to buy new hats outfits souvenirs etc from the world now if there was one complaint I had with the game it's the motion control options that it really wants you to use about 95 percent of the game can still be played without the gestures but I found the pro controller or using the joy con grip the best way to play plus when you're in tablet mode it's really kind of tough to pull off some of those motions Super Mario Odyssey is the most explorable an open world style Mario game ever packed with a seemingly endless amount of Secrets and after game collecting to take on well maybe what I like best about this Mario game is that it's just different it takes chances deviates from the path taken it's funny touching and it's really weird and that's great suffice it to say yeah if you have a switch this is a no-brainer as much as Zelda juez go play it and if I didn't own one I'd probably buy a switch just to play this
