It all really depends on whether you've enjoyed previous installments of the Mario Party series.  If you do like it, I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun playing it with a group of your friends.  If you've grown tired of the Mario Party franchise, I would recommend you look for another game.

I think it's probebly a great game depending on how many other mario party games you have played. I for example last only played mario party 2 (yeeeep....been a loong time, lol) so even if mario party 8 on the Wii is very similar to the ones on the NGC then it's still new and wonderful to me, maybe

It depends how many you have played if you haven't played alot of Mario Party games then get it. If you have though you might want to get something else.

I got it yesterday, and its honestly not as bad as they make it out to be. The graphics dont look like something out of Smash Bros Brawl but they're good nonetheless. They coulda done some tweaking with the wii remote integration, some moments are just awkward, overall its a better game than they portray. Also may note I'm one of the people who hasnt played a MarioParty since the first ones

hey well i had played 1,2,3,4,5,and7 and I own 1, 2, 5, and 7  and 8 of course, and yes they are new minigames that few look like MP7 but all mario party's had little remakes, if you already own wario ware for wii change it for mario party becouse it is the same thing but it is not that fast,  if you have friends that like mario and you enjoy challenging them to know who's the best then buy it, it is not good for solo playing

Why do you have a question mark at the end of the title?

you're an ignorant moron. report me i don't care. you're just a fanboy.

and as a rebuttle to your statement

Wario Ware got a 9.1, matching Rainbow Six:Vegas, which by your definition is the only type of game that people who work for gamespot like.

 Mario Party 8 sucks because its the 7th sequel to a concept that never was perfect in the first place. You might like it because you don't look for depth in a game but to the other people who don't go "OOOH PRETTY COLORS" at the tv screen, the shallow gameplay might not be enough.

I think ill stop now before i go even further.

I've played it the past two nights in a row. Last night I stayed up til 1:30 playing it even though I needed to get up early for work. I just couldn't put the remote down.

I miss that feeling also... I like mario party 8 but it all depends on how often u play with other people and how well u like the other games
