What's great about it: every thinggg
What's not so great: nothing really

"I had this game for the game cube, and loved it. I didnt think it would get any better. But i was so wrong. I love this game. it is alot of fun for any one. its not hard and i love it because it doesent have all the stupid videos in it that never stop talking! haha. you can change the game to fit how you want to play, which i love because then if you dont have alot of time you can change 2 play 10 turns, but if you want to play a while then you could go up to 50! haha this is a great game over all and its alot of fun =]"

What's great about it: Good Party game for a bit
What's not so great: NOT as good as the other Mario Parties

"I have been playing Mario Party for many years now and was very disapointed with this installment. The games are ok to mess around with but overall it doesn't have the same flare as the others. Fun game to rent with friends for a night."

What's great about it: Very kid friendly
What's not so great: Gets boring real fast for adults

"Game is a little too easy for adults and gets boring pretty fast. It is good for kids though. Our 4 year old is having fun with it. A little too much $ for the simplicity."

What's not so great: Maps are hard to follow for guests

"I'm a fan of MP 2, 3, and 8. The rest I don't care for too much. The maps can be hard to follow for someone who hasn't ever played Mario Party before."

What's great about it: Great multi-player action, challenging games, fun for the whole family
What's not so great: wish there was an even harder level

"Our family got this as one of our first Wii games, because we have 4-7 and it did not disappoint. Most of the games are easy enough, the 3 year old can do it. A total blast! Highly recommend and can not wait for number 9!"

Good Game   08/07/2008
By molebean from Ephrata, PA

"This game features many nintendo characters and several different game modes. The mini games are fun for everyone and are very easy for most people to understand. I would not recommend this game to children under 7."

Good Party Game   07/31/2008
By ComputerGEEK11 from Carlisle, PA

What's great about it: lots of worlds, fun strategy game, multi-player

"This is the best mario party game yet. There are tons of new mini games to keep you entertained. There are new worlds, and each of them features a unique goal to attain. This game is so much fun, especially when you get to use the wii remotes to play the mini games. THere are varying lengths and difficulty...so you can adjust the settings for any type of crowd or situation. I absolutely love this game, its a perfect multiplayer strategy game with fun mini games and it takes full advantage of the wii remote abilities."

Cool   07/30/2008
By BUbbybob from Michigan

What's great about it: Fun
What's not so great: Parts too easy

"It was a good game, but some of it was not challenging enough. some of the mini games were not even hard at all. the ones that use the wii remotes' sensors were pretty good, but others like shaking a soda can were not all that much fun. Overall, i thoughtit was pretry good"

Fun for the whole family   07/30/2008
By MinusTom

What's great about it: Competitions are for any age group; storyboard play = free time between turns; great graphics and scenery
What's not so great: none

"Competitions are fun for any age group and the skills you need to play make it fair for young and old kids to compete together. The competitions all follow a storyboard layout (move your character from start to finish), so you get breaks in the action when it isn't your turn. But it's still fun to watch the other players as they take their turn. Each round of individual play is followed by group competition (individual, 2 on 2, and sometimes 3 on 1).

Play some gameboards as individuals or team up 2 on 2 on others. Play as your favorite Nintendo character. With the computer filling in for any missing players. The variety of gameboards keeps the game interesting.

Definitely a game to play with the family or group of friends.
