Paper Mario is breath of fresh air. It brings all of the old from the first paper mario game and throws in a bunch of the new. Everything about his game is excellent, I don't think I have One complaint. The game was long, never gets old, and suprises are spread throughout the game. The thing I loved most about the game is all of the enviroments and the different ways you can interact with them. Since mario is *paper* in this game you can make him do many sorts of things like going through cracks, rolling up, turning into an airplane, and being a boat! There are many types of enviroments too, a forest, the usual outdoor place, an arena, a haunted place and a few others.

The fighting is the same as in the first, but with a twist. You can get an audience. The audience will watch you, and give you strength. They can throw things at you, some are helpful and some will damge you! Put on a great fight and more and more will come. The difficulty is just perfect too! some battles are easy and some are just down right nasty! The boss is by far the hardest boss in the game, but there are others that are hard *i'm thinking of you pirate boss*.

The storyline starts out with you going on a treasure hunt and ends with you trying to save the princess *who couldn't seen that one coming?* There are many interesting charicters to meet in this one too. and i think there's a total of 8 maybe 6 party members. With so much to do in the world of mario this time I have no choice but to give it 10/10! EVERYBODY should play this one.

My small oppinions about the game

There are to many. I loved going on the pirate boat for the first time, and the arena, and the train, and the weird looking forest place.

Least Favorite Location

Favorite Charicter
Now that is a tough one. Every character has such a crazy personality that its hard to chose just one.
Least Favorite Charicter
There isn't one.
Hardest Boss
Believe me when I tell you that the final boss is insanely hard. Even for a Hardcore RPG gamer like me, it had me in tears =(.
Approximate Complete Time
Around 30 hours.
Things You Should Know
Read Luigis book that he publishes, its hillarious. Also, you can get the girl mouse on your crue if you accept and complete her job offer.
Final Score
10/10
Why a 10/10?
Believe me when I tell you I didn't expect this game to be nearly this good. I knew that the first one was good having beaten it, but this.... this game took the Paper Mario franchise to a whole new level. Nintendo better keep pumping out these babies if they know what's good for them.
