I played it about a year ago, again, and enjoyed it. There's nothing bad about it, imo, but collecting the coins got annoying after a little bit. Still love the game though.

I will be honest, I did prefer and enjoy this over any other 3D Mario title.
Have it, but don't play it much.
Yes, I have the game and I play it occasionally. It beats Super Mario Galaxy. I liked the music, the graphics, and the secrets.
Does anyone have a favorite world? I really liked the Gelato Beach, but the hotel is probably my top choice.
Sirena Beach (Sp check)
AKA The Hotel
I couldn't stand Pinata Village

Yeah, Sirena Beach is my favorite. Loved exploring the hotel, and playing the casino, even if there isn't much. The sunset at the beach is also relaxing.
Dark Boo, it is indeed Sirena Beach, lol.

I really like Pinna Park. I thought it was an interesting theme, then again I pretty much like all theme park stages.
Sirena Beach was also fun but it had one of my most hated levels. That f****** Manta Ray had me stuck for ages.
I haven't beat the game 100%, have any of you guys?
This game was the first game I played when I got my Gamecube; came with the Gamecube. 
I love this game, but now I can't play it since the controls I have nowadays have at least one unresponsive button. I can't play this without the R button being used. :/
Some things I hated:
- Yoshi dying from water and spraying juice was just weird.
- 20% of Shine Sprites were from those Blue Coins. Speaking of that, can't the police arrest the guy who's giving the Shine Sprites for Blue Coins? They do need it to help the Island. Oh Nintendo Logic.
- Weird boat controls.
Besides that, my favorite world was Sirena Beach. The scenery is so beautiful and for some reason I liked Episode 6. (Episode 1 was hell though)

(Episode 1 was hell though)I enjoy this game a lot. I love the art style and the environments. I find little touches like being able to see other locations off in the the distance very creative and interesting.
However, I prefer Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy by a little.

My personal favorite world was Pinna Park.
I thought the whole idea of most of the Shine Sprites were awesome (Riding a roller while shooting rockets at a giant mecha-bowser was so much fun), as well as having an outside area that's just a beach was an interesting concept itself.
My next favorite (and really close) world would be Ricco Harbor. It's 3rd Shine Sprite (The Caged Shine Sprite) was my all-time favorite Shine Sprite to collect, especially when I didn't cheat the course using F.L.U.D.D.
It also had BLOOPER SURFING!!!

I also liked Blooper Surfing, but the annoying part is, once you get on it, you can't get off until you get a Shine Sprite. The worst part about surfing, is that if you hit a wall, it's instant-death for you.
Hated the game. Destroyed the Mario formula that was perfected by the earlier 3 installments (SMB3, SMW, SM64). FLUDD was a cheap gimmick, too many Red Coin hunts and not enough creative missions, Blue Coin missions are a waste of Shines that could have been used to create 24 more missions, awful camera control in tight spots, etc. This was the start of the decline of interest in Mario for me. It was just a disappointing game for me to experience. Is that the best they could come up with? Cleaning up graffiti? Bullshit.
Blooper surfing was a pain the ass, nothing more than that for me lol.Vipsoccermaster said:
And Aegis why are you getting mad at the storyline, at least it was kinda different than the usual thing.
The storyline sets the whole gameplay in that you have to clean up graffiti and shit that's clearly not Mario-esque.
