Best Mario game on the GameCube finally gets a sequel.

Olivia Wilde Homo · « **Reply #2 on:** March 19, 2013, 09:31:07 PM »

Got it preordered on Amazon which means they'll ship it out to me 1-2 weeks after release

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #3 on:** March 19, 2013, 10:37:57 PM »

I'll probably be a little bitch and buy this from the eStore when it comes out

I'd be more inclined to get a 3DS for this than any "real" Mario game. Hope it turns out good.

Luigi's Mansion deserved a sequel years ago.

Considering this. Going to take my niece to get a 3DS XL this Sunday... Isn't there some promo where you get a free game when you register an XL and this game?

The Punchout dudes are great game designers. Lot of attention to detail, stylistically

demi · « **Reply #17 on:** March 24, 2013, 03:02:24 PM »

Picked this and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon up at Toys R Us, they're having B1G1 40% off all games.

So you could get Luigi's Mansion and Bioshock if you wanted on Tuesday.

bork · « **Reply #18 on:** March 24, 2013, 03:32:46 PM »

Picked it up too. I know a guy at Target and am glad he happened to be there today...the clerk had no idea what I was asking for and apparently was checking to see if they had 3DS systems in stock instead of games.

$:-\$

demi · « **Reply #19 on:** March 24, 2013, 05:05:06 PM »

Game is exactly like the original. So good.

I dont really understand the need for ranking me on the levels. I want to explore and take my time. Apparently that is a bad thing to do now.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #20 on:** March 24, 2013, 06:11:16 PM »

you can revisit the levels to get a better ranking and search for boos. On your first run through, just take your time and get dat loot

game is fucking great. These guys should handle a Zelda

demi · « **Reply #21 on:** March 24, 2013, 06:51:38 PM »

You have to beat the first four levels to unlock multi. I read you can play with friends only rooms. So post some codes up and we can try it out.

Ranking gives replay value later on. Pretty common thing in action games.

I'll probably pick this up along with Donkey Kong Country Returns 3DS. 3DS delivering the classic action gaming goods.

Eh.. it looks like a good game, I'll buy it any enjoy it. I can't stand the ADHD hyper-colored Mario games anymore at my age, so at least I won't have a seizure playing this.

actually wait...I have that second one....go out to the front lawn and use the spectrobe thing on the bunched-up flowers.

I'm missing that third to last one

Thread title: Luigi's Mansion 2

It's a full-on sequel with an online/ad-hoc 4P co-op multiplayer mode added. You can also play this mode by yourself.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #35 on:** March 26, 2013, 09:53:43 PM »

Finding all the boos and gems is freaking ridiculous. I looked up one that I couldn't find and when I saw the solution, I was like

It's bad enough that they make you replay the entire mission when you're just trying to look for collectibles. I'm just gonna skip the ones I can't find and then go back with a guide later.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #36 on:** March 27, 2013, 01:23:28 AM »

That's what I've been doing. I prefer how you find Boos in the first game, but battling them in this game is much better.

DCharlieJP · « **Reply #37 on:** March 27, 2013, 01:25:42 AM »

the graphics are pretty good - has a nice diorama look to it. Game is so so at the moment, but Luigi is pretty great as a character. "Heeellooo?"

And - fuck no - you have to find fucking boos like the shit half of the first game? Iwata pisses in my kettle again :/

Bit late now - already bought.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #38 on:** March 27, 2013, 01:27:49 AM »

No, honestly not at all. The Boos unlock a secret level for each world. Catching them is mostly ancillary.

mjemirzian · « **Reply #39 on:** March 27, 2013, 05:21:34 AM »

Any post-completion verdicts on the game? Anything unlocked for completing the game?

Olivia Wilde Homo · « **Reply #47 on:** May 13, 2013, 09:59:59 PM »

Since Soul Sacrifice was a POS to me (another $40 well spent), I cracked this game open and am about 2 hours into the game. I like it so far. The graphics are really nice and probably the best I've seen out of the 3DS yet. The 3D effects are pretty ace too if you have the slider cranked up. I also like a lot of the little details the game has and the game rewards you handsomely for exploring it seems. Good start.

i finished it in around 12 hours? but i didnt go back and explore a bunch. i imagine if you were in to that it could get you around 14 or 15 hours of gameplay

demi · « **Reply #50 on:** May 14, 2013, 08:54:37 AM »

It's not a long game.

Collecting gems is useless. It unlocks absolutely nothing.

Collecting the Boos unlocks a bonus level that is just a time trial - useless

The third mansion is the weakest.

The fourth mansion is the shortest.

Boss fights were good in general.

I think I prefer Luigis Mansion 1 overall - though I havent played it again in a long while.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #51 on:** May 14, 2013, 01:11:39 PM »

Yeah after a bit of time the original is better overall, but this is a very solid sequel.

Thanks for letting me know, I'm not going to bother doing either now.

Beat the game with 13:02 on the clock.

+ Lots of little things to open up and check out. Reminds me of Blue Dragon on the 360 where if you want, if you bother to look inside every drawer or every vase, you can find something (usually money).
+ Pretty good 3D effects if you turn up the 3D setting.
+ Nice graphics overall. I thought this is one of the few 3DS titles that looks like it is pushing the hardware by comparison.

- Repetitive gameplay. Not a lot of variety but that is the purpose of the game: suck up ghosts, poke around at things, clear a room, repeat.

I think it is a solid B title. A pleasant surprise. Looking forward to playing Donkey Kong Country Returns later this month. The 3DS is kicking a lot of ass this year.
