Advantages: large improvement over the first one eith great multiplayer fun

Disadvantages: single player can get boring

The graphics in MP2 are much improved over the first MP. The characters move more, move much faster, and act more interactive.In the mini-games, they will yell more often, and have many different expressions on their faces. What's better, they all don't move the same way. They each walk their own way, which is a good addition. The best part probably is that the expressions aren't constantly the same anymore, like the first Mario Party. They will change from proud, to angry, to sad, to hurt, and to down-right mean.

In the mini-game where you are all standing on a record and it starts spinning,and after it stops, you have to grab a floating star. That is HARD. The characters don't all move the same way either, as said before. Much better graphics.

MP2's sound is better from last year. As said, the characters yell more, and there is more sound to the overall boards. Horror Land's sound changes when day changes to night, and that is a great addition.

The music in MP2 is not very good. The game relys more on SFX this time around. But, I haven't played the whole game of MP2, either. as MP2's controls are better than the first game's. So far, I haven't found one time where the computer takes control of your character for one terrible second, as that does sometimes happen in the first game.

Mario Party 2's gameplay is almost exactly like the original Mario Party's, and that means it is fun. The biggest problem is that Single Player is still boring. But, with adding challenges along the way, like Duels, Challenges, and other things, you don't really know what will happen when someone moves around.

Overall, an improvement over the first one. The best party game on Earth has to be Mario Party 2
