I say that because Mario Party 4 is better. Mario Party 4 is the best of them. But Mario Party 5 still is good!

Awsome!

Get ready for some fun! The new mini-games are very creative and the main mode is great. This game also features a special bonus mode, that has beach vollyball, Hokey, and a spiecal card/board game. The reason I would not rate this five out of five stars is that the 1P mode and super duel mode are both very dumb. But if your a Mario Party fan, or even new to the Mario Party series, then this game is a must have!

Better than MP4

I think that this game is fun for people of all ages. take control of one of eight characters in story mode, bonus mode, mini-game mode, and one of the other 5 modes. After that you get to play on a board (there are 6) to collect stars to win the game. between every round there is a mini-game and this is the reaql fun of the game. There are 75+ mini-games to keep you busy for hours on end. I think that you should get this if you are a gamecube owner.

At Least Good for Parties...

Mario Party 5 is a great game and is definately worth purchasing if you do not have a Mario Party game for your Gamecube. If you have Mario Party 4, though, you might want to reconsider purchasing this game. The maps are nothing extraordinarily different and brand-new mini-games are few and far between. Maybe Nintendo should have delayed the game a year or two in order to make this game more different than Mario Party 4.

Another thing that irks me is that it seems like the computer cheats with the CPU characters. For example, it too-often places the next star location directly in front of the CPU player.

Of course, where Mario Party games really shine are at 4-player Nintendo parties. If you are a hardcore Mario Partier, then this game may be just what you are looking for.

Ok game

Mario party 5 is mostly a copy of the first 3 games (i haven't played mp4). Me and my friend were playing the game and i was explaning what to do in the mini games and she saysoh thtas like blah blah blah in mp? and she said that to at least 7 times. Mini games are the best part of all the mario partys and mp5 is kinda lacking in games but it is worth your money its really good for a nothing weekend or a b-day party.

not better than four but great

How could you not love the Mario Party franchise? It's one game I can think of that can hold 4 sequels under it's belt and still not stink. From the moment you pop in this game into your cube, you'll love it. Me and my friend Bob were the first two to test it, and we found ourselves loving it from begining to end. Single Player wise, you might not be enthralled...so purchase/rent this game only if you have friends! I reccomend the first board you try is the future board, because it extremely helps you improve on your strategy. Another great thing is, with each combonation of characters you get on your team, you get a catchy team name. For example, Mario and Luigi together are the Super Mario Bros, and Boo and Yoshi together are Team Scary Dino. How cool is that? All of the new minigames will have you beggin for more, and you can unlcock them to play anytime you want. If you own a gamecube, you need to get this, and Mario Party 4. Cook some popcorn, pour some soda, and enjoy.

A very fun game for Gamecube!

I like playing this game a lot. There are lots of different ways to play, you could battle other people in the battle arena places, or you can play the original one, gamebord style, with new mini games and features!
I think its fun playing this game with my friends in multiplayer, but i dont think that its as fun in 1 player mode just playing against the cpu. If you like all the other mario party games, you would like this one too.

Let The Party Begin

It has been so amazing that Nintendo has really been able to capture the status of Mario so very well. He has been recognized as one of the most beloved characters of all time. That has been true with so many different games. Since the Mario Party games debuted back in 1998, it has taken the feeling of interactive board games to a whole new level. While many companies have tried to catch that same bug like Hasbro and the CD-ROM versions of the classics, to Sony trying a Crash Bandicoot knockoff, Mario Party has remained king. With the status for the Nintendo Gamecube, the series has still stood tall, and number 5 is just that peachy as well.

Mario Party 5, the fifth installment for the Nintendo Gamecube, is a real delight for any group that wants to bring those game faces on. The game offers 60 different and challenging mini-games for you to test your skills with, including Bus Buffers, Coney Island, and so many others. The game also increases the challenge by adding a story mode through 5 challenging dream boards, where Bowser and his cloned Bowser Jr. kids want to hold complete control over the Mario World. The graphics are simplistic, just like the prequel, and the new Mario Party 6. The control is also very easy to pick up on with all the mini-games and a little practice as well.

All in all, Mario Party 5 is a good game for the Nintendo Gamecube for all ages. Unfortunately, you have a better chance of getting this one used currently than in new condition. For those, they may just consider Mario Party 6, or the upcoming Mario Party 7. Still for the fun & value, Mario Party 5 is a great party to hang around with.

Graphics: B+

Sound: B-

Control: B 1/2+

Fun & Enjoyment: C+ if you're playing solo; B+ if you're with others

Overall: B
