I loved the other Mario Parties but this was a huge disappointment.

User Rating: 5.5 | Mario Party 8 WII
Now I love Mario, don't get me wrong but this game was terrible compared to Mario Parties 1-7. When I heard this game was coming out, I was so excited because it was on the Wii, I love Mario Party and so on. Some of the mini games they have are good, but they are losing ideas faster than you would believe. Like in Mario Party 6 LAWN MOWING?!?!?! I had a lot higher expectations for the wii. I have no idea what they were thinking about when they did story mode, please don't get me started on that.
Now the good things are that there are some not-so-mini-games that you can use with your miis some are better than others though.

Now if you can find this game for $20 or so than yeah go ahead and get it. If you like Mario Party than I am sure you will like this more than I did. All I am saying is that I wasn't as satisfied with the game as I hoped.

The good,
Graphics Some good Mini Games
Mii compatible games

The Bad,
Mini Games
Story Mode
Just the game itself
