When I first saw this game I thought to myself, "Mario Brothers live on." I knew I would have to get this game when I got my Nintendo Gamecube. It's a Mario Brothers game. Who wouldn't want it?Well I've been playing through the game for a while now and let me tell you a little bit about it. The gameplay is fun for younger and older players. It's not too hard, for the younger players, to the point where they will want to give up. On the other hand it's not too easy, for the older players, that they will beat it in a day. The levels are interesting and fun. The basic design of the game is that you are Luigi and you are searching for Mario in a haunted house. You have a vaccum that you capture ghosts with so they can't hurt you. Sometimes you will have to search around for some clues to figure out what to do next. This is one of the aspects of the game that make it interesting. I would highly recomend this game for all ages of play. So have fun and enjoy the search for Mario in the haunting game Luigi's Mansion.

A type of game like Luigi's Mansion is a great way to kick-start a new video game console.This time, Luigi gets to star in a game of his own. Luigi wins a haunted mansion in a contest he didn't enter! He calls Mario and tells him to meet him at the mansion so they can celebrate. On the way there, Luigi gets lost in a dark forest. When he finally gets there, Mario isn't at the mansion. Luigi goes inside and finds out that the mansion is infested with ghosts! Luigi looks around and finds an odd little professor named Elvin Gadd. Luigi explains everything, and finds out Mario was captured by King Boo and his subjects! Gadd equips Luigi with a flashlight and a vacumm, and he goes out to save his brother! I think the cartoony graphics in this game are very detailed and rather add a new style to Mario games. The ghosts are extremely funny with things like their "pop down and throw the bomb on the floor" routine. To defeat ghosts, you need to shine your flashlight on the ghost and its heart will appear. Suck with your vacumm. It's energy decreases as you suck more. The music is very cute. It has a "something doesn't seem right" type of sound to it. There isn't much music in this game, but the quality of it makes up for that fact. One of the few flaws of this game is that it can be finished in less than a week (I finished it within 5 days of getting it). But I didn't, like most people would do, take one star away, because the puzzles are challenging, and it's SO much fun to play around in parts of the mansion that are already cleared. I hope a sequel comes out soon!!
Rating: - It's almost like Resident Evil, but with a vaccum
So, Luigi's won a mansion and Mario's gone to check it out. Mario hasn't returned though and things aren't lookig good. It's up to Luigi to save Mario from the ghosts haunting Luigi's Mansion, and your weapon of choice...the Poltergust 3000. If you were to combine Ghostbusters, Resident Evil, and Scooby-Doo, this is what you come up with. Luigi's Mansion is full of fantastic graphics, great play control, good music and sound, spectacular lighting effects, and innovative game play. The game requires you to hunt down all manners of ghosts, and use your head to try and capture some of them. Though this game is fantastic, it is somewhat short. That's the game's only downfall. Despite this, the replay value on the game is considerably high. It's well worth buying and is a great addition to anyone's game library.
