Mario Party 5

Mario Party 5 - GameCube

Pros Cons
Just plain fun Repetitive gameplay
Fun but lacking

For those who like the franchise, MP5 is is another solid title in the series. However, the game is lacking some of the elements that made Mario Party great in the first place. The "capsule" system that took the place of item shops is largely irrelevant and honestly makes me want to skip the item gathering process altogether. To put the point bluntly, I don't like spending 10 coins to booby trap a space that opponents may or may not land on. Further, the mini games are somewhat repetitive and lack the inventiveness of earlier titles. They're often little more than "A"-tappers that take place in different environments. All in all, a fun game but not the best in the series.
