Luigi's Mansion (GC)

In Luigi's Mansion you must save Mario who is trapped in the haunted house that he inherits. It has been taken over by ghosts so you have to go clean up their act, literally with a hoover :P. The game relies on your catching all the ghosts and building up points, hthe control are simple as is the gameplay. You first must stun ghosts with your flashlight and then you can see the ghosts heart. you must then use the vaccum to suck the ghosts up and makes sure they do not get away while you're sucking them in. You must at the same time avoid the ghosts and not let them touch you, and try and catch them too, it does get fairly harder throughout the ...  Read the complete review

I'm a fan of the majority of the Mario games, but was a bit skeptical as to whether Luigi could star in a game by himself - does he have the charm and star power to make it on his own, or is Mario sorely missed? Not to mention, the gameplay videos I saw when it first came out gave me the impression that it'd be quite repetitive. The premise is rather simple - Luigi is tricked into believing that he has come into possession of a mansion, and so after Mario goes to have a look and doesn't return, Luigi goes to see what has happened to him. It turns out Bowser has taken him hostage, and you're going to have to get him back, armed with...a hoover... The ...  Read the complete review

The theme of the Luigi's Mansion game is to save Luigi's brother Mario trapped in the haunted house of Luigi. The house has been taken over by ghosts who keep coming from each room looking to attack Luigi. The game does generate a lot of interest for kids as its a good one for them to play.I got this as the first game for my Nintendo Gamecube a long time ago. Controls in the game were simple to pick up as you can kill the ghosts easily in the game. As the game went on it got more tougher in each level. It was all about avoiding the ghost touching you and making sure you kill the ghosts. If you lost out you started off at the same level so it was not much ...  Read the complete review

Being a fan of the older games I got myself Luigi's mansion on the Gamecube as I hadn't been on the gamecube for a while. I got it cheap second hand as I've found that the Gamecube games are a bit hit and miss, so it is better to find them at the cheapest going rate. Luigi's mansion has a very simple premise, and that is that you are Luigi who has just won a mansion in a competition that he cannot remember taking part in. Mario has gone missing in the mansion and Luigi is trying to find him but there are some very wierd things going on in the mansion. You meet what looks to be an insane scientist and he confides in you that the house is haunted, which means ...  Read the complete review

*here be spoilers* I bought this game with my Gamecube for £5, an official Nintendo game, you can't go wrong...or so I thought. Basically, Luigi inherits a house, a haunted house. So he decides to clean it up - simple!! Initially I played this for 10 minutes, didn't know what was going on and so put it on the shelf where it sat for 3 years!! One afternoon I got bored and placed the disc in my well used Gamecube, 3 hours later I was fighting King Boo hoping for a quick finish...3 hours later I was STILL fighting King Boo wondering if it would ever end, it did, with me turning off the machine in a fit of rage that almost cost me a ...  Read the complete review
