not as fun as people say but worth it for the amazing story line
User Rating: 8.3 | Super Paper Mario WII
well, i got super paper mario for my birthday a week ago and I beat it in 2 days. But don't let that make you think its short, its an extremely long game that took me 17 hours to beat. Really the game is a big mixture of RPG elements from the other paper mario games, but is mainly a platformer. you fight enemies the way you would in classic mario platformers but can perform combos by shaking the wii remote. you can also flip the landscape from 2-d to 3-d. Its a cool idea, but somehow i found that you don't use the technique quite as much as I thought you would. the gameplay isn't exactly what I'd call addictive like people say it is, or all that fun, which is kind of dissapointing. As you get to the few final chapters in the game, the story gets more dramatic and the plot is done almost perfectly, which is the reason I gave it a higher rating, you'll see what I'm talking about especially in the final chapter, and the last cutscene. The idea is about count bleck wanting to destroy all worlds and the 4 heros stopping him with alot of dramatic parts near the end and alot of suspence as certain parts of the story are revealed. They're fantastic. You can also play as peach, bowser, and luigi (you find luigi in chapter 7, but you play him for what feels like a long part of the game). The main flaw of super paper mario is that it isn't all that fun. As you get further into the game, the levels become more maze-like and complicated, and you have to remember where you have to go which is kind of hard. When people say this game is easy, they mean defeating the enemies, which is true, the main challenge is going through doors and figuring out what to do, which is definetley an RPG element in the game. Overall, I was kind of dissapointed with Super paper mario. Its kind of fun, but the levels get more complicated and tricky as you continue. But the reason I didn't give it under 8 was because of the amazing plot and storyline. So you should at least check the game out and get some experience with it before you buy it.
