The good: Great boards, Super Duel Mode, Lots of minigames, Card Party.

The Bad: Some dodgy controls, Some events are unfair, Story mode sucks real bad.

Full Review: Mario Party 5 was my first Mario Party, and it was good. It has a rather interesting gameplay system with imaginative boards and minigames, and extra features. The best part HAS to be Super Duel Mode, a brilliant combat game. It is great fun and has lots of action. However, there are some bad points. Some minigames have dodgy controls and when certain events happen you feel like all your efforts were for nothing. And don't forget Story Mode! Well maybe you should because it's downright crap! So in all, it's a great buy but has some... issues. Still, it's well worth it.
