''Super Mario 64'' received critical acclaim, garnering a score of 9.8 from IGN, 9.4 from GameSpot, and 9.75 from Game Informer. Although it was criticized for its camera system and difficulty, it was praised for its graphics, level design, soundtrack, and the ''Mario'' series' shift from 2D to 3D. Sometime after the game's release, rumors about secret glitches, stars, and hidden characters circulated. Among the most notable is the widely publicized hoax that Luigi was hidden and fully playable, causing false [[List of rumors and urban legends#Luigi in Super Mario 64 .2F .22L is real 2401.22|rumors]] to circulate on how to unlock him.
