They're behind that plant!

Is it really that good? I might be buying it, but if it's a short one like Luigis Mansion, then maybe i'll just hire it.

I hated that game... The gameplay seemed really fun... But they screwed it up, IMO... I had no idea how I was supposed to do certain things, which part to get next, if I could get it or if I just didn't know a method of using my pikmin, where to find anything... days would pass and I didn't get any parts...

I liked Blood Omen 2 better... and that got fairly dissapointing reviews...

Well, the point of the game is to explore for parts, and here is a clue: ussualy breaking down bunch of walls will lead to part. Once you get the radar you will be able to locate parts on a map. I think pikmin is best played through once and knowing (but not exactly finding) all the parts. And then go through a second time and know where everything is.

Well it's the latest game of living legend Shiggy. So we just had to get it.

You're just not real N-fans.

It was good while it lasted ..but it doesn't have much replay value though.
I would suggest this game as a rental..not a buy.

ya, i agree with DH amd mushlafa. Pikimin just wasn't one of my favorite games. Like Mushlafa said. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy it, just rent it 1 or 2 times.

I pretty much agree with DH, Marionette, and Mush here...I just didnt like Pikmin. It just didnt hold my intrest...it just got me frustrated...the camera was annoying, I didnt like the time limit thing(same way with Majoras Mask, me no like the time limit)(although I can see where it was needed...kinda...I still dont like...)So pikmin was just a one time rent for me...
