]]> 31 Aug 2007 02:49:38 The fourth installment of the wildly selling four-player party game walks the same path that the previous titles did, banking on the power of 50 totally new mini-games and vastly improved graphics to do the selling. Four people trek their way around an interactive game board and indulge in a wide variety of mini-games after each turn. Instead of points, you earn coins, which allow you to buy stars if you land on the correct space. The player with the most stars and coins wins. As for the very important mini-game challenges, they range from free-for-alls, to 1v3, to 2v2 matches. There are five totally new game boards available from the get-go, ranging from haunted Boo-themed environments to the tropical Koopa's Seaside Soiree.

The second GameCube installment in the multiplayer series that began on N64, Mario Party 5 now sports 3D boards, more than 70 new mini-games, more playable characters, and a new single-player story mode that cuts down on wait time. Players can also compete in mini-game tournaments against friends or the CPU, assemble machines and do battle in the Super Duel Mode and test their mettle in three bonus modes: Card Party, Beach Volleyball and Ice Hockey.

]]> 08 Feb 2007 07:03:35 Mario Party 6 builds upon the style and mechanics of its predecessors by offering furious four-player fun rooted in board game mechanics. The new additions in Mario Party 6 include day and night cycles, new characters and mini-games, and of course, the new microphone. Two of the new characters, named Brighton (a sun) and Twila (a crescent moon) get into a heated debate over who's better. The dispute creates a day/night dichotomy that comes into play whenever playing on any of the six game boards. When you're ready to play, a pop-up book springs open and highlights your options. Party Mode is where you'll find the different board games, which you can play solo or with friends. Instead of just collecting stars, though, each board features different objectives. Mario Party 6 features over 80 different mini-games.

The objective of the game is to guide the mice ("ChuChus") around the game board towards goals, while avoiding the cats ("KapuKapus"). The game is primarily multiplayer (up to 4 players on one console or over the internet), but the single player mode is extensive.

]]> 26 Mar 2007 09:58:43 The entire Mario gang is back for the seventh installment of the incredibly popular Mario Party® franchise. Players everywhere will set their controllers to fun as they run, jump, swim and fly through more than 80 new mini-games. But this party's about to get a lot bigger...because EIGHT people will now be able to battle each other at one time. The microphone peripheral from Mario Party 6 also makes a grand return – and with the new Mic Grand Prix mode, there will be plenty of voice-over madness for everyone. The addition of two new playable characters, Dry Bones and Birdo, will ensure that even seasoned Mario Party vets can experience a new world of wackiness.
