mario and luigi bowser's inside story REVIEW

all so the game that everyone is rushing to get but is it worth the money

graphics 9/10
well as you know you arent going to expect a graphic masterpiece from a handheld system but this game is good because nintendo stuck to the basic's and didn't try to make them into some crappy 3d bobble head game the classic graphics are what make us remember the good old days of mario and luigi superstar saga and super mario rpg and they kept the graphics of the move's the same which is even better

sound and music 9/10
well as you would expect from a mario rpg the sounds are hilarious the way how mario and luigi talk all the affects all the movements of the characters the sounds is the part of the game which really shines and makes you love the rpg even more

story 6/10
now i'm not going to say that i hated the story but i didn't find it exactly entertaining first you start of in bowser so you think thats alright then you get out of bowser's learn a few moves fight a boss or two then get back straight into him for about another 2-4 hours depending on what kind of gaming you are but there are somne highlights in the story like when you have to fight bowser's castle as giant bowser's that is really quite alot of fun also one of the things good about the story is that how you unlock you're special moves you go around and collect ten puzzle piece's one you have all ten you unlock a new move which is then followed up by a demo also one of the cons is that the humor it is hilarious but it isn't as i remember it i mean mario and luigi still talk like they have no tounge's with no actuall words coming out which does make the game that much better but compare that to SSS or super mario rpg you got to think nintendo wasn't really focusing on humour for this game
the story is a real downpoint for the game it is just very repetative until about ten hours in when you're out of bowser for good than it does start to pick up but you don't have that much gameplay left after that

free roam 10/10
the freeroam is just as good as it was in SSS where you can go around exploring towns and new areas it's not like it pit we you're stricted to the castle which isn't that bad but it would still be better if you could explore more

controls 8/10
the controls are great in fact better then ever except for the madatory touch screen sequences in the game which do actually come up alot for you to do all the mini games you need the touch screen so before you get the game you better make sure you're touch screen is calibrated

overall rating 7/10
this game is just a real dissapointment not in every department but it is really just the story that put me off it the old pick up and play for hour's and hour's is gone the old way you used to know isn' gone but it's fading now this isn't a bad game they could have done alot worse but looking at the series over years and working my way threw all the rpg's including the paper mario even though there basically a whole differnet series i still liked them but anyway i realiused that this game is just one of the ones that some people like and some people don't there won't really be anyone in the middle

in my opinion if you have played SSS and super mario rpg and have not played pit yet then play that see if you enjoy it if you do than this game is for you but if your more old school and like the classic's i suggest waiting a few months waiting till it's cheap and then buy it if you're looking for something to do

by the way this is my first review so go easy thxs for reading
