I loved this game as a kid and am glad I could get it now.
If you think Xbox can match up to this excellent 3-D game than play it and weep!
It'll add a little more to the price but while you're controlling the character, your kids can look through the book, enjoy the pictures, practice their reading skills by guiding you along, and boost their self-esteem by being the authority while getting through the game
This game is a great Gamecube title that may not be what people expected, but still worth the price of admission
What we have in Luigi's Mansion is a fun, solid adventure title with little to no replay value
First off, to warn those of you who can't appreciate a short and sweet title, let me say that this game is SHORT
This game looks like the best title at release for Gamecube
Luigi's Mansion is not as durable (in terms of game-length) like many other excellent GameCube titles (Zelda, Metroid, SMS, etc.), however there's something about this game that just instills amazement for those who seek and love the graphics when it comes to gaming.
He's even thought of using our real vacuum to suck up the hidden monsters under his bed
Once the Boos are released they will run from Luigi and hid, once one is found the boo will try to hid again so use the vacuum to suck it up, the only problem is they are impervious to the vacuum so if it escapes chase it down because if it escapes for to long it will hid somewhere else, one way to keep them in the room is to freeze them
The game: armed with a torch and a vacuum cleaner, Luigi has to suck in the ghosts who lurk in the furniture, in the approximately three dozen chambers of the mansion
No, in this game Luigi's using a vacuum to suck up ghosts in a haunted mansion.
What you are supposed to do is go throughout the mansion sucking up ghosts with a vacuum cleaner (it is a lot harder than it looks.)
Both my GameCube and my Wii have no trouble reading the disc and playing the game.

But there are just too many great GameCube games out now to spend the full $on Luigi's Mansion
Like most people, I bought a GameCube as part of a bundle, so I didn't have much choice over my initial game selection
As the title game for Nintendo's Gamecube, it was nice to see that Luigi was in the spotlight for once instead of Mario but when comparing Luigi's Mansion to other Super Mario Bros. games it definitely falls short
Very good price, never messed up or skipped or anything (i use the wii to play this) and just in unbelievable condition for just $22 for a great game like this very satisfied.
The case was in perfect condition along with the disc, and manual
I MADE THE STUPID MISTAKE of buying this game and sure was i disapointed , the graphics were cool but the gameplay was a piece of crap!!o boy sucking up ghosts with a vacuum cleaner ,so fun
The game came in very good condition with minor scratches on the disc and came with the original game box with no manual
Everything was in good condition and the disc worked well.
Sound: 8Just about all the sounds are good, and the music is great, but some of the ghosts' noises get to be absolutely maddening after awhile.
The graphics are decent, sound is repetitive, gameplay has a bit of variety, and the control scheme is decent once the player gets used to it
The graphics are great, the controls are godly, the fun-level of this game is incredably high, and the sound is just perfect.

The sound and music, presented in Dolby Surround, are just great.
While the gameplay is overall simplistic, it is challenging at times, from finding all 50 boos to solving puzzles that can be a little mind boggling at times
Well this game is great the gameplay is good and the controlls are awsome
but i dont regret purchasing it twice because the graphics are amazing, the gameplay is fun
However, the short gameplay time and lack of a multiplayer mode means that this game may be collecting dust in a week or two
Despite the ...awful gameplay, the graphics will blow you away
The y button helps you see what can kill a ghost, but it's so slow by the time you know what it is, it bumps into you and you lose major health
The pressure-sensitive L and R buttons can be used to control the force of your vacuum, but that function is almost useless during gameplay
I got (all by myself, very rarely found myself wondering what to do, as I said, too easy) and got to the Boss battle before King Boo, which is The Other big boo
You also lose health for opening doors, having mice touch you, and you virtually are dead after 10 touches by a ghosts, plus -20
But the drop bombs down, and you go into them, and you lose health and the ghosts
And despite the fact that the entire game is spent in a mansion, the new rooms are like new areas in a traditional game
It actually feels a bit spooky when you enter a dark room filled with ghosts.
Luigi hums along with the soundtrack nervously while searching dark rooms.
As you progress through the game, you must clear each room of ghosts before you can move on
Now armed with a special vacuum cleaner, Luigi must clear every room in the mansion by hoovering-up spooks, and find his missing brother, who has apparently vanished inside

Luigi's game does a good job of creating a scary-yet-cartoonish atmosphere to immerse yourself into, and it's fun to go-round sucking ghosts into your vacuum cleaner
The controls are unique, the story is quite original for a Mario game, and it has a good, spooky atmosphere
Although this game does have a few flaws(takes less than 12 hours to beat playing nonstop, some ghosts are a pain to catch, sucking up the ghosts can sometimes take a while, especially with the bosses), the simple controls, mildly creepy atmosphere, and the fact you have an awesome weapon with which to capture the ghosts make this game one heck of a ride!
You explore the mansion collecting keys as well as ridding the haunted place of ghosts
Once stunned, its heart will appear, which is the cue to start with the vacuuming

But anyways the purpose of the game is Luigi wins a mansion that happeneds to be haunted and u r supposed to save mario that has been kiddnapped by the ghosts and luigi (who u r) has a vaccumn that sucks the ghosts up and u get either hearts or coins when u suck them up
Using the vacuum, players can do everything from rattling vases to shake money and hearts out of them, to sucking up table cloths and towels
You play as Luigi and must travel through a hanuted mansion and suck up ghosts through a vacuum cleaner.
But it's not always as easy as illuminating the ghost with a flashlight
But it's not always as easy as illuminating the ghost with a flashlight
We all have a good time trying to decide what rooms to go into or how to defeat the ghosts (each major ghost has a special way to get him to appear such as throwing cold water on the shadow or bringing things to them, etc.
To defeat ghosts, you need to shine your flashlight on the ghost and its heart will appear
After a little while, it gets a bit too boring anyway, repeatedly pressing that R button to suck up ghosts with your PolterGeist 5000
The controls are a bit tricky at first but it provides you with a better handle over your main character, Luigi
It kind of gives a little extra bit of story to the game, like how the butler has a crush on the piano player, and the granny likes playing jokes on people.
I had never played this game before until I had ordered it on Amazon, I was a bit skeptical at first ordering a used game on the internet
It is probably a bit too hard for a six year old to play alone and can be scary too
As you go into the mansion you meet the crazy professor who wants to capture the ghosts to study them
When Luigi first enters the mansion, he encounters this stupid little professor who is supposedly there to give Luigi the background of what is happening in the mansion and teach him to use this vacuum cleaner to capture the ghosts that haunt the mansion

A weird baby doctor character named Professor E. Gadd gives him the tools he needs to rid the mansion of ghosts: a flashlight and a vacuum cleaner
The great Professor Gadd is on the scene to help Luigi find his brother.

Review
When Luigi's Mansion was first announced, many assumed it would follow in the legendary footsteps of Super Mario World and Super Mario 64
The game doesn't approach the epic scale of either of those titles, but once you get used to its smaller scale, the various charms of this game do become obvious
The game involves you, as Mario's brother Luigi, trying to exorcise a haunted mansion of ghosts by sucking them into a vacuum cleaner
It sounds easier than the previous cinematic attempts by the Ghostbusters and the Catholic Church, but it's not
The complications and cleverness of the game manifest in the use of light and shadow
Many ghosts cannot be seen unless you reveal their shadows or manipulate the objects in a room to make them appear
These imaginative--but never frustrating--puzzles add to the otherwise simplistic process of catching the smaller ghosts by freezing them with a beam of light and sucking them up with your Hoover backpack
It's only a minor classic, but Luigi's Mansion does show off some off the GameCube's graphic effects and provides a game the whole family can enjoy
