Having played all the gamcube Mario Party, it is sad to say this is easily the worst. First of all instead of the single path single player mode in MP6 or beat 3 computer in MP5, Hudson decide to take a huge step back. The single player mode is now a race between you and a computer to get a certain number of coins or stars. Hoever, you just keep rolling and there are no mini games unless you land on a certain space. As a result, it is just seeing you can get a higher roll.
Second, instead of using stars to unlock stuff, they now have a point system. The system means that it is going to take much longer to unlock the bonus.
the also elimate the option of having computer play agains each other. In the old games it is a quick way of unlocking everything.
One thing i do like is the design of the board game. The windmill stage is easily one of the best in the series. In that stage you get stars by putting money in a windmill If you put the most money you get a star. However, the other players could take your star if they put in more money than you.
Overall I would suggests getting Mario Party 6 instead.
