My 6 year old loves it

For the younger crowd - my 6 year old and his friends and little sister this is an ideal game. There is enough difficulty that you can consider this game a puzzle rather than repetitive action. Of course with the need to fight ghosts these kids aren't sure if they should be scared or not at this age. I had been asked by my son to help a few times, teaching him a new twist on solving the progressively harder puzzles (tactics), but for chasing down hard to beat ghosts, my son still bests me. There is some light reading involved, not enough to get in the way of younger children who still aren't at that skill level yet, in fact I believe the GameCube and GBA games have helped motivate my son to learn to read, since some games (Yu-Gi-Oh in particular) really require the skill.
Enjoy the game - the young ones will have a blast!

good for the kids

Well it's no suprise that nintedo once again geared ther new system to the 8-12 year olds. This game was fun but got really really really repetative. Plus it was way to short. I beat the game in two nights (5 hours total). It's was also way to easy. I DIDN'T DIE A SINGLE TIME. BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!

A good game

Luigi's mansion is a pretty good game and though not without its flaws is very fun. The graphics for the most part are very good though there are some blurry textures that should have been fixed up before release. The realtime lighting and shadows are quite simply amazing and easily make up for the handful of blurry textures. The boss fights and some of the puzzles you have to solve to fight the subbosses are extremely innovatetive, I would like to list some but I don't want to spoil it for those of you who have never played. The biggest problem I have with the game is that it is too short, hopfully they will make a longer sequel. In short this is one of the best launch games for the system and is good fun for gamers of all ages.

I think Luigi's Mansion is very complicated because you have to do all kinds of things at the same time.

When the Maro Brothers series was introduced in the 1980's, it has been declared as one of the greatest video game series of all time. The feel of the fantasy world has been absolutely supurb and the simpleness of the games make it all worth the while. While everything always has to be around Mario, this prime example focuses in on Mario's brother, Luigi. Still, this is just the 2nd game Luigi has actually starred in, the first one was Mario Is Missing!, but this game is also like it. It was a big move for Nintendo to finally start the Gamecube platform games off with Mario's Brother, and boy is it compelling.

Luigi's Mansion, the debut platform game for the Nintendo Gamecube, focuses in on Luigi, getting an flyer claiming he won a contest he didn't enter, and now he finds out that he has to hunt down the infamous King Boo, and all of his ghoulish pals to stop Luigi from rescuing Mario. The game has well over 60 rooms to choose from, with a whole number of details awaiting in the process, including puzzles, and the feel of the game. The graphics on this one are a bit similar to what you see on the Nintendo 64 platform, but the game is really fast upon the CD-ROM gaming. I truly must say, it is one of the most frightening games ever. Even I was nervous from all the vulgar ghosts and goblins in it. Still, it might be challenging for new gamers, but many of them may want Super Mario Sunshine in their actual Gamecube game collection instead.

However, the only way you actually can play this one, is to find a strategy guide for Luigi's Mansion, which is very difficult to find bow that a lot of stores don't really have the game in stock anymore. Still, if you can't find it, you will be wasting almost twenty dollars for this game that is actually exciting. Luigi's Mansion is actually one of the most compelling games out there right now, and it is worth the waiting in gold.

my first game...

i was excited to have this game as my first for gamecube, but it was boring. you go through so many levels and do the same thing over and over, just kill ghosts and get your keys. that's about it. but i guess it's cool for little kids..

Pretty good.....but not the best

It was a fun game at first but then it got boring after doing the same thing over and over.The graphics were great I have to adimit,and the controls were too.But it's just not the kind of game for me I would recommend renting it but not buying .Overall this is one of those games that you might want to check out but not buying it,and luigi by himself is no fun !

Who You Gonna Call: LUIGI !!!!!

After nearly twenty years of being second best to his fat brother,Luigi makes his way to the Gamecube with his first starring game! The game is kinda short,but fun anyways. What you have to do is play as Luigi, who buys a haunted mansion in a lottery but dosen't know that it's haunted. The ghosts inside the house capture Mario and it's up to Luigi to come and rescue him by going room to room sucking up ghosts with his ghotbuster-like vaccum till he reaches the top of the mansion and kills all the ghosts and rescues his brother Mario. Truthfully,I wish they'd have made more Luigi games in the future, this is my only complaint. You know, a mansion game is okay, but I wish they'd make a Luigi game with they old fashioned way like in Super Mario 64, just with Luigi.

Luigi's first Starring Role!

This game has excellent lighting and good graphics. It is easy to progress in the game, but overall it's very fun. It's a little too short. I got really far in four days. Still, you should buy this game.

Good Game

I'll Start Off By Telling The Story.One Day Luigi Receives A Message From Mario Saying That He's Won A Mansion But Luigi Doesn't Remember Ever Enterng A Contest So Luigi Needs To Meet Mario At This Mansion But When He Arives Mario Is Nowhere To Be Found And The Mansion Is Crawling With Ghosts So Luigi Needs To Extinquish The Mansion Of Ghosts And Rescue His Brother.This Game Is Defintely Not Perfect But Is Still Pretty Good
