Before I begin, I should say that I'd never played another Mario Party before this...
The story goes like this...
It took well over a year to convince my wife that we needed a gamecube. So after winning a bit at the local casino, we decided we could afford to splurge... Bought the gamecube, and after reading the back of every gamebox available, we decided on MarioParty 5 made our purchase and headed home.
Got everything hooked up, popped in the disk and... Oh what is this!? This game is horrid! I called the store where we purchased the game and BEGGED them to let me return it. Of course, they would not let me... So I was stuck with this game ($49.99 at the time) which we HATED. Here I was with the Gamecube I'd been wanting for a year, and not a single game worth playing. Sure the graphics were great... the sound was nice... but come on! There was nothing to this game (or so we thought).
And then it happened.
The shops had all closed up... We had no choice but to play MP5. So we did. We played one full game. It was okay. We played again... hey it's not so bad... we played again... this game is sweeeet! The more we played the better it got. The board game, the mini-games we loved it all. My wife and I soon were addicted.
Neither my wife or I are huge video game fans, but we love a good card game or board game... The more we played this game, the more it appealed to our sensibilities. I think (honestly) that we use the mini-battles as a chance to get back at eachother for little annoyances. It's really quite fun. When we have friends over, we'll hook the GC up to our 55" and have all out wars.
Over the weeks and months that followed, we purchased more games, Toadstool Golf, Simpsons Hit & Run, Zelda, etc. et al. But Mario Party 5 is really the only game that gets any frequent play.
To make a long story short... Good game, just give it a chance.

I've never played the first 3 mario party games ' because i never owned a N64 ' but mario party 5 is indeed a very fun game when i rented it out i use to think it was a childish game ; but later on i think its an okay game so months later i decide to buy it ; but I realise story mode can be hard but their was always the party mode to play ' In my opinion this game is a must have for fans of the mario party series ' Their are older people who enjoy this game I also think the music to the game is cute and we can all look forward for mario party 6 which will be release in december of this year.............
So buy this game you wont regret it :)

The 5 in MP5 probably means this game is for children 5 and under. The graphics are no different than MP4 and the concept is exactly the same as its predecessors with a few new game modes. The games are boring and often have the same objective: repeatedly press buttons to do something. The new features don't make the game any more exiting than the other 4. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!

THE CONS1:no item system insted you get these dorky capsule thingys that almost never save you in a tight spot 2: Lack of originality in mini games most games are shades of games past 3:1 bowser space you got to be kidding me!
THE PROS 1: it's the best party game on the market ,though disney party is fun 2:super duel mode 3:no more "computer always win games" (sooo many in the first 3)
OVERALL: get the game for fun!

Like previous Mario Party games this game is very fun and addictive and recommended for all Mario fans for muliplayer mode is just amazing but what brings down this games rating is the still weak and sometimes boring single player mode and too much text screens the level of reading in this game is too much and this is a great turn off but besides these the game is very good.
