Well since this forum is rediculously dead, I just thought I tell a little about Paper Mario. So far, this game is GREAT. To be completley honest, I was never a huge fan of the origional for the N64, but like I said I couldnt pass up that deal from EBgames, and the reviews for it are stellar. Let me say, well worth the 20 bucks, no doubt. Im allready over 4 hours into the game, and I just got the 1st of 7 stars needed, so at that rate it looks like I'll get 28 hours of gameplay out of it. Not saying it will definatley take that long, but its certaintly feeling like a LONG game so far. Anyways, ive quickly grown to love its simple, yet still quite deep RPG fighting system, and when you level up, its actually rewarding, unlike some other games. LOTS of text and story telling in this one, so dont expect non-stop action by any means. But its all very well done. Oh, and so far the platforming/puzzle solving elements have been awsome. Id fully recommend picking this one up if you havent played it yet and are looking for something to play on that gamecube, that I know has been collecting dust as of late....
