Another disappointing Mario Party game that doesn't really offer anything new to improve the game.

This game is about as good as Mario Party 5 which is not good in this case. The game contains quite possibly the worst and childish story you will ever see in a game. The solo mode in MP 6 is quite useless as you are able to get the rare mini games in only a few times playing and is only worth playing to get alot of stars. But these stars are used to buy mostly pointless stuff in the star bank instead of making players earn them from achieving tasks.
The mini game and party modes are the same as previous titles but the boards in the game are rather short and strays to far from what made them fun. The mini games are generally boring as too many are based around luck (fortunately not as much as MP 5).
The mic mode is new and makes use of the included microphone which is good but the multiplayer aspect of the mode is good. So the game is good if you intend on playing with a few people but if you are planning to play by yourself then you will get bored very quickly.

Graphics - Ok but to bright and colourful, probably the worst of all the MP games.

Sound - Good music with the characters voices becoming annoying after playing the game a while.

Gameplay - Good in the multiplayer aspects but nothing to offer solo players. Not enough modes or challenge to keep your interest for long.

    This game is just plain fun. With the new characters, new modes, new places, new mini-games. It's just plain great. The single player will keep you occupied for a while, but the multiplayer is where the fun really begins... Read Full Review
