At long last Luigi has got a game all to his self!!!And thats not all,he has won a mansion in a competition he did not even enter......
The plot of this game is that Lugi has won a mansion in a competition he did not even enter. He is due to meet Mario at the mansion to have a look around. However when he gets there he finds the mansion is haunted and worse still that his brother has been captured by the ghosts of the manson. However with the help of the professer he sets out on a misson to save his brother.
The game style is that of a typical Nintendo one, you wonder around from room to room searching for keys etc.In this game you wonder around with a vacuum cleaner(The poullter ghost 3000) strapped to your back and along with your flash light you wonder around sucking ghosts up the vacuum cleaner.
The graphics in the game are truly amazing,as soon as the game starts you know that you are in for a treat. The graphics are so nice to look at and the way they are is truly amazing. The transparency of the ghosts and the way Luigis torch lights up the rooms is amazing. You cannot fault the graphics even if you don’t like the cartoony style of the game.
The sound on the game is a standard tune,but the way the loudness and tones of the music changes at certain points in the game make it much more interesting. A great part of the music is that when Luigi is scared he starts whistling along to the tune!
The game is not particularly hard,however at the start of the game(as it is with all new games) the controls are quite tricky. But after a while the controls become easy.The only annoying part of the controls is that you can not move the camera around, this is not a massive problem but there are occasions when you cannot see what is going on. The game really does take full use of the rumble feature on the controller!!
The game lasts quite along time, at least without a walkthrough. If like me you play it for two days solid(what a way to waster your weekend) you should have it fully completed, once you have completed it once though it becomes exceedingly easy however I believe it is possible to get the mansion in a different layout but im not really sure.The game will last most people in between 2-4 weeks before you get bored without and only play it on occasions.
The instructions you get with the game are brilliant. They are very detailed and inform you on everything you need to know. The manual is bright and colourful and easy to understand. The only criticism is it can be quite hard to find what your looking for if you are just looking for the one bit of information.
Overall Luigis manson is a great game,hiowever it is a little short lived but the graphics and sheer brilliantness of the graphics easily make up for it. This is a classic game which any die-hard Nintendo fan should have.
