Mario Party 5 again

So I finally started working on single player mode of Mario Party 5. Unfortunately, the entire single player mode is essentially dueling. Compared to the previous games' story mode, it's rather boring and repetitive. Nothing changes up really except the boards and dialogue. Not even an extra mini game in between boards is there. I'm a very disappointed...

However... It does have a Super Duel Mode which is rather interesting... Build your own battle mobile with parts you buy with coins, and the coins are obtained by your mini-game playing. Made a rather kick-ass vehicle and played around with it a little. While the feature is interesting, I suspect it will be short-lived as there doesn't seem to be much else to do with it other than play with different cart styles and play one of 3 battle areas...

I mentioned this game maybe a few weeks or more ago, since it was the only Mario Party I didn't currently have and I wanted to have them all. I suppose I should play story mode a little more than once before assessing it, but it really just doesn't seem that great as an overall game. The minigames themselves are mostly good, but way too many luck based games. Didn't count exactly but they always come up when you really need to win them it seems.

On the other hand, this comic generally depicts the mario party games... somewhat...

  4. I've never actually played any of the Mario Party games, but I always wanted to back when they first started coming out on the 64. I have some catching up to do, it seems.

  6. My sister hates Mario Party, I think the only one she liked was the 2nd one.

    That's why we don't play it anymore, it's not fun if you don't have 4 humans.
