Reviews around kid (5.00 of 5)

  • 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

Reviews around title (4.49 of 5)

  • 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.

Reviews around graphic (4.41 of 5)

  • Sure, the graphics are great, but that doesn't redeem the boring and repetitive soundtrack and gameplay.
  • What REALLY fascinates me about this game are the graphics.
  • This game has great graphics, and is fun for about an hour or two.
  • The graphics are good and I haven't experienced any problems with the game
  • Despite the ...awful gameplay, the graphics will blow you away

Reviews around vacuum (4.35 of 5)

  • 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.)

Reviews around gamecube (4.33 of 5)

  • Both my GameCube and my Wii have no trouble reading the disc and playing the game.
  • 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.
  • 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

Reviews around play (4.26 of 5)

  • The game itself can be completed rather quickly, but the first play through is highly memorable
  • it looks great & play great for a gamecube game alot of fun
  • Luigi's Mansion (LM) is a very fun, addictive game with beautiful graphics and great game play, but the game does have a couple flaws
  • These puzzles prevented me from growing bored with the repetitive game play
  • But, otherwise the game has great graphics and good play control, but that still cannot make up for the actual game length.

Reviews around sound (4.18 of 5)

  • 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.

Reviews around gameplay (3.79 of 5)

  • 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

Reviews around health (2.82 of 5)

  • 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

Reviews around room (2.81 of 5)

  • 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

Reviews around atmosphere (2.37 of 5)

  • 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
  • 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!

  • But it's not always as easy as illuminating the ghost with a flashlight

Reviews around bite (1.38 of 5)

  • 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

More about Luigi's Mansion - Gamecube

  • Product Description Luigi has a lot of work to do in his very first starring role
  • He needs to find his missing brother Mario in a creepy and mysterious haunted mansion
  • Armed only with a flashlight and a customized vacuum cleaner, he must rid the mansion of ghosts and save the day
  • Made in USA. 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
  • If only it were a bit longer
