    Does exactly what it sets out to do, and as such it comes highly recommended to anyone with more than one controller to their name.

    The best game in the series yet. But that isn’t saying a whole lot when you consider that the sequels have always felt more like continuations than they did actual sequels.

    It's not a bad game but doing story mode with all the characters can take very very long, mario party 2 was maybe a better game than this.
