It's almost like Resident Evil, but with a vaccum

So, Luigi's won a mansion and Mario's gone to check it out. Mario hasn't returned though and things aren't lookig good. It's up to Luigi to save Mario from the ghosts haunting Luigi's Mansion, and your weapon of choice...the Poltergust 3000. If you were to combine Ghostbusters, Resident Evil, and Scooby-Doo, this is what you come up with. Luigi's Mansion is full of fantastic graphics, great play control, good music and sound, spectacular lighting effects, and innovative game play. The game requires you to hunt down all manners of ghosts, and use your head to try and capture some of them. Though this game is fantastic, it is somewhat short. That's the game's only downfall. Despite this, the replay value on the game is considerably high. It's well worth buying and is a great addition to anyone's game library.
Smart, funny game

This game is a hoot. Graphics are terrific, with all the nifty GC features like moving light sources, fog, etc. Superb detail. Hilarious character: Luigi hums along with the soundtrack nervously while searching dark rooms. When the lights are on, he whistles along in relief.
Downside: the game is pretty easy. Children will enjoy it immensely...the ghosts are pretty non-threatening, although sometimes surprising. If you're looking for something with the sophistication of Mario or Zelda or DK64, this isn't quite it (at least, not so far...I'm about halfway in).
Annoying thing: the Prof. E. Gadd character's pseudo-speak. It's made up of Japanese phonemes, but it just sounds silly. Kids, again, may find this less annoying.
A Fun Game. I loved it

Plot: Luigi recieves an unexpected message. He's won a mansion! Naturally, he's very excited and calls his bro. Mario. Luigi tells Mario to meet him at his mansion to celebrate. Luigi tries to follow the map to the mansion but he becomes lost. Finally he finds the mansion. Mario is no where to find. He goes inside the mansion but doesn't find Mario. He is chased by a ghost but when it looks like his adventure is over, Professor E. Gadd tries to suck the ghost into his invention : The Poltergust 3000. He fails and the ghost gets away. they run back to his lab where he tells Luigi that Mario has been kiddnapped by the ghosts! What will happen to Mario? You have to play to find out.
Review: I personally loved this game. I bought it for my son and I found myself playing the game more than he does! It's funny, sometimes challanging and full of fun. Buy this game!
I can't believe how good this game is!

I like Luigi's Mansion because it's a mystery game, and you have to figure out where things are hiding, such as keys, ghosts, money, and secret rooms. The graphics look very cool, in 3D. The game should take a while to beat. It's very fun. Luigi's Mansion is a one-player game. You can chose how you want Luigi to walk too...sideways or straight. Luigi has a flashlight and a vacuum in which he uses to suck up ghosts...kind of like ghost busters. The ghosts get stronger and harder to beat as you move up levels. Overall, I think the game is really great.
First game I bought for my Nieces and the liked it.

Well, my nieces are 10 and 7, and I bought them this game with a gamecube for Christmas. They really enjoyed playing it, and the graphics and sound are really top notch. I would totally suggest picking it up for young kids, but not a teenager because it is kind of built for kids, in my opinion.
should be 5 and not 4 out of 5 stars on the average rating!!

this game is way better then a 4 out of 5. I think this would be a good second or what ever number og games you have even if it was the only game you play. I got stars wars rouge leader II, luigis mansion, and wave race: blue storm and by far the best game of all was luigis mansion.
Giving Up the Ghost? I Think Not!

This is the most awesome game. The graphics are unreal. The way the shadows follow the flashlight and the way you can see Luigi's breath make this game so realistic. The ease of control in this game is great. I consider myself video game challanged but managed to manuever easily. (I am an old Sega Genesis 3-button user.) I also enjoy the fact that you need to check rooms several times after they have been cleansed. It's fun just to find treasure. The Luigi's Mansion strategy guide is a must have to find all the secrets hiding in this game. The replay value on this game is high. Once you start, you cannot stop. So pop the popcorn and line up the pop (soda) before you start the game. To me, the fun factor is off the charts.
Excellent Game

I honestly thought that the price being so low, that this game would not be very fun, but I was wrong. My son and I have really enjoyed playing Luigi's Mansion. It could be challenging in some areas, just enough to make it exciting. If your looking for a clean, fun game for your family, then you need to grab this one. Plus look at the price, how could you go wrong.
GREAT GAME, ALITTLE ANNOYING AT TIMES

This is a great game to play if your in the spooky mood. I had alot of fun with this game but at times it does get annoying. Sometimes it takes forever to capture certain ghosts. Me and my nephew had played it and it kinda scared him abit. Now I have to play alone without him. But other than that this game is another great game to add to your collection. It doesn't take to long to finish the game just depends on how much free time you have and how long it takes you to figure it out. It is alot of fun to play. Good Game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
