I wasn't expecting it. No way was it. I was washing my hair at the time, when I heard a large clunk at the bottom of my stairs. I quickly ran, hair dripping, to see what it was. Mario Party 4 had arrived.

Some of the mini games are pure crapness - there is one where you have to row a boat using A and B, going VER slow whlist the computer has super speed.

My favourite so far has to be the 'GOOOOOOOOOOOOAL' mini game, in which you have to score/save shots. It rules

The Tpoad's board is tedious, but the rest are okay...

Argh!

Curse you all and your having of Mario Party 4!

I really want this game - and from what I played in HMV, it was brilliant, so now I want it more.

The Skiing one and boat through the cave one rock.

I've come across a copuple of dudds e.g that one where you're in balls on a conveyor belt and one player uses a crane to pick you up.

Some of the mini games last a lot longer than the ones in other versions, that dungeon 2vs2 one goes on for a hell of a long time.

This game rocks though if you're not sure about it then I wouldn't jump to purchase it. Mario Party games are an acquired taste.

I had to wait over 300 days for my first GAD. But then again, I wasn't around these forums for months during my exams, the run up to the exams and the holidays, so maybe I would have won one then.

Anyway, back on topic.

It's behind Mario Sunshine? Must be pretty bad then.

The problem I have with buying it is that it's just mini games....no real meat to the game. I dunno if I would be right in thinking this or not.

I got to wait until X-Mas, before I can play on mine. Can't wait to play my mates on it.
