Nintendo Wii - Mario Party 8 —
wii mario party 8 is a good multiplayer game but i did not enjoy the single player mode. we had fun but you need one controller per person, you cannot share controllers like you can with wii sports bowling. the minigames are good fun. the bonuses will keep you playing for more. wish it had better boards though. the best one by far is the one where you buy hotels, the others are rather repetitive and bland. there is good use of the wiimote, although some games are unresponsive or overly-responsive. the graphics are fair. good enough, but hardly ground-breaking. the colors are sometimes a little off. I would have liked to have been able to use miis (in the board games) but you can't. sound is fitting if not particularily great.
