Yes the game was quite good. Cept not enough challenge. The only hard thing was figuring out how to make picture ghosts weaknesses exposed. However beating King Boo, was quite difficult, but eventually i was able ti kick his bum! after you beat King Boo, there is a star next to the gameboy horror. I dont know what it symbolizes, but my best guess is that the stun of the flashlight wears off faster, because catching orange ghosts was harder with the star. I beat normal mode in 3hours! =| well it was fun.... its ok..... however a GREAT game to get used to gamecube is Super Monkey Ball, and that one can be HARD on expert! INCREDIBLY HARD!

I got Luigi's mansion on Christmas in 2003 and played it about an hour after I saw it. I beat the game in two days and this is not a lie.I got really far on the first day (I was in the hallway next to the observatory) and beat the rest on the second. This is a very fun game and I have beaten it two whole times. This is a hint for you, there is a hidden room in the butlers room. Look for a mouse hole and get in first person view, while in first person view press A on the mouse hole to go inside, but make sure you have fire, and you will see lots of treasures. Also look on the back of the case of the luigi's mansion holder to see what it looks like.Blow fire on the goasts to get the ice in them to melt so you can get to the heart and it is vacuum time. you will find lots of treasure and money there and mabye another BOO.

It is great that Nintendo GameCube made a Luigi game, Mario has been kidnapped and Luigi has to save him. But the game lacks Mario characters.. (Peach, Toadsworth, Yoshi's ect)

The game itself.. very fun and entertaining, but a tad too Easy. I rented this game twice in a row, for a total of 3 and 1/2 days of being able to play it, and unfortunetely, I didn't complete it. I got (all by myself, very rarely found myself wondering what to do, as I said, too easy) and got to the Boss battle before King Boo, which is The Other big boo. lol. I was 1 boo away from beating the boss. I know if I could have had one more day with the game I would have been able to complete it. I looked at a walkthrough (cuz I wont be able to play the rest of the game anyway) and the rest (last Area, Area 4) would have been really easy.. but unfortunetely I have to return the game soon. (less than 1/2 hr) I think the Boss battle King Boo would have been tricky.. Sadly; I will never see the ending of the game, I spent 8$ total on renting the game for 4 days, and I'm not going to buy the game now. I mean; if I was going to do that I wouldn't have rented it in the first place!
Next: Replay value. The replay value is fair. There is only 1 reason I would not have fun playing it over again is there are WAY too many ghosts to vaccum.. it is tiring. But other Mario titles, like "Paper Mario" and "Paper Mario, Thousand Year Old Door" Have much better replay value than this game does, I can play those two over and over again and not get tired of them. But playing Luigi's Mansion again, I would get really tired of it. That is why I suggest renting it first, THEN if you love the game buy it. Many of my other N64 and GameCube games have better replay value then this one. But this is still a great game the first time you play it.

I just wish I could have finished it and seen the ending.. oh well. But that is my advice, rent it first, then if you like it, buy it! I like it but since the replay value, in my opinion is so poor I don't want to buy it.

By the way; At least I found Mario even if I didn't get to save him! LOL.
happy gaming.

I love this game. I think the graphics are just amazing. You will confuse reality and virtual reality after you play this game. And don't let any idiot tell you this game is too easy to beat. Trust me, I'm no idiot, this game is the perfect length and features a great cast. If you love Luigi and want a change of paste from mario games, buy Luigi's Mansion.

Luigis Mansion is great!

Last summer I got a gamecube I had not had a game system in 10 years, but did not really get many games for it (2) For Christmas my mother go me 6 games, one of witch being Luigi's Mansion. I have tried the other games, and found that at this time I lack the skills needed to play some of the more difficult games, but this game is not to hard, it is one I am using right now to get use to playing video games again. The graphics are good the game play is good. At times it can get a bit repetitive. There is some humor in the game that will make you lol.

the "fire" button of the game is the left shoulder button, this at first seams to be odd, but once you start playing you find you need to use both the c-stick and the control stick, because of this your thumb is not free to hit any of the A B X Y buttons. So the only other buttons that are usable for this are the R L and Z buttons, and the Z button would not be a good choice for firing a weapon IMHO.

One of the best games Ive ever played.

This is a great game.Although a little too short this game is pure unaldureated fun. Ive never played a game this fun before except for Sonic Adventure DX. There are plenty of ghosts and rooms and is irresisibly clever. The plot of this game is simple and to the point.Luigis won a mansion and it ends up to be filled with ghosts and hidden in a special room a mechanical Bowser is being controlled by King Boo. At the end of every level a boss ghost awaits and those are really fun to play against too. There are also Gallery ghosts,blue ghosts,hidden rooms and golden mice. Toad will help you save your progress and E Gadd is your insructor. I think its a great game and a must have for any fan of Mario and Luigi.

Beautiful game, but repetitive and too short

Luigi's Mansion is fun while it lasts, and the graphics and animation are really excellent. As far as gameplay goes, it's fun learning how to trap the ghosts, and it's a rewarding experience when you solve the puzzles and open up each new room of the big mansion. But that's all there is to it: enter new room, find out how to get the key to the next room, repeat. You keep hoping there'll be something new, but there isn't. And then the game just ends, with no real reward...about 5 hours after you started. The game is way, way too short.

Kids will enjoy this game, but if you're an older gamer, you'll want to rent this one and save your money for games like Eternal Darkness, Rogue Leader, Wave Race, and Super Smash Bros. Melee.

Nice demo, nice early game, but little game

I've just read another review that says Luigi Mansion is similar to Mario 64. My question is: do you play the games with closed eyes or do you write reviews at random?
Those two game have a COMPLETELY different gameplay, so if you expected a platformer, you are gonna be disappointed. Luigi plays in 2D (although the display is in 3D), it is a very old school game. The graphics are good but the engine slows down and glitches, and the framerate is a mere 30fps. The gameplay itself is fun and easy to pickup, but extremely repetitive. And it takes 4 hours to finish the first time.
I bought this game in Japan in September before any review was out. If I had known I would not have bought it. Save your money for real games like SSBM and Rogue, you can find free 3D demos on the net for free and much better than Luigi Mansion.

Unique game - is a lot of fun.
