Great game :) hopefully I'll be 100% done tonight :) All I need to do at this point is find how to access 7-6 (I have a good idea where it is...) and get the 3 star coins and finish the matching stage in the special world and I'll be done :) Overall it was a great game and I can't wait for xmas time to play it with a bunch of people

I'm a little confused as to whether to pick this up.

Alot of reviews say that the game is really fun others, where as others say that the single player is the only decent part and the multiplayer is just ****.

I only want to play multi so whats your guys opinions.

NEVER TRUST AN IGN REVIEW lol honestly I know that sounds harsh and biased but at least read some other reviews first. I was an avid IGN fan for years but over the last year or two their reviews have completely shat the bed. I'm talking half page reviews that don't even talk about gameplay, to cut and pasted reviews from the console section for pc ports etc. etc. etc.

Although their txt review of New Super Mario Bros didn't seen too bad, I havn't played it yet so dunno if I agree with it...

Ya, I watched that review yesterday. The reviewer seemed kinda schizophrenic. He was saying how disappointing and how great the game was at the same time... Pick one. :p

I was a bit disappointed that all you get for collecting all the star coins (even from World 9), is a stupid message that says congratulation you finished everything in the game....sounds like they could have done a bit better...

But anyhow I've really really enjoyed the game :)

+1 for this game being awesome. I picked it up the day it came out and I havent stopped playing it. The multiplayer is hilarious but it can be very challenging at times. This is definitely the hardest Mario I have ever played.

+1, people seem to think the multiplayer was meant to make things easier, but in reality it makes everything harder (except collecting star coins) and that's the fun part.

The Wii: No Achievements, No Fun. :p

Kidding. I love the game. Brings back a lot of memories.

And this is why Mario has kept his relevance whereas Sonic is seen as a joke...

People want the old-skool gameplay! I personally WILL be getting this, as the DS version rocked!

Not necessarily true. Super Mario 64 and Galaxy were really fun. I think Sonic has lost relevance because the newer 3D Sonic (Sonic Adventure for the Dreamcast was good IMO) games suck. :p

I'm still on World 1 because I've just not had time for much gaming lately, and when I do it's usually MW2.

Last night however I managed to play 2 levels and I saved my game. Went to play more today and it didn't take me to where I left off?! wtf (N)

I've replayed these levels like 5 times now cause I've always had to switch it off in a rush for whatever reason :laugh: :angry:

All I can say is thankfully Nintendo was smart enough to let players bubble themselves.

+1 many lives saved doing that lol

I preordered this and picked my copy up on the 12th Nov. It's a blast and I love playing it. Played multi player a few times and it's good as long as you're all capable of playing the game at a similar level. One person can really spoil it for the rest if they have no idea how to use the controls.

Highly recommended!

      By Copernic · Posted

      Flameshot 14.0 Final by Razvan Serea Flameshot is a free and open-source, cross-platform tool to take screenshots with many built-in features to save you time. Using Flameshot is as simple as launching, dragging the selection box to cover the area you want to capture, making annotations as needed in on-screen and saving the shot to your computer, all with a very simple and straightforward interface. Flameshot allows users to simply upload their screenshots directly to the cloud in order to easily share it with others. You can upload your image directly to Imgur with a single click and share the URL with others. In-app screenshot editing - You can choose to add an arrow mark, highlight text, blur a section (blur or pixelate an area), add a text, draw something, add a rectangular/circular shaped border, add an incrementing counter number, and add a solid color box with Flameshot's built-in editing tools. Command-line interface (CLI) - Flameshot has several commands you can use in the terminal without launching the GUI via a command line interface. The command line interface lets you script Flameshot and use it as the subject of key binds. Flameshot 14.0 release notes: This release brings major improvements to multi-monitor support, fractional scaling support, new capture workflows, and a long list of bug fixes across all platforms. Changelog: New Multi-Monitor Capture Workflow New monitor selection screen before capture for better multi-monitor and mixed-scaling support. Option to auto-capture the monitor under the cursor (X11 & Windows). Tray menu can directly select a monitor. Linux Improvements XDG Desktop Portal is now the primary screenshot method. Added legacy X11 fallback option for minimal window managers. New D-Bus capture API for scripting and automation. Windows Enhancements Global screenshot hotkeys now supported (not limited to Print Screen). New portable mode stores settings next to the executable. Clipboard now always uses PNG format for better compatibility. CLI & Platform Updates Redesigned flameshot screen command with per-monitor capture support. Added native Nix Flake support. More compact launcher UI and improved update notifications. Major Fixes Multiple Wayland stability fixes, including KDE Plasma crash fixes. Clipboard compatibility improvements for GNOME, Wayland, X11, Windows, and macOS. Fixed D-Bus hangs, capture crashes, and HiDPI region issues. Other Changes Dropped Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal) support. Updated translations and build infrastructure. Intel macOS builds are no longer provided.
