I got Luigi's Mansion last year for my birthday and played through most of it, so I decided to write a review. This game is fun and funny and it shows off the Gamecube's graphical prowess. I split the game into 4 categories and scored them all individually.
Graphics: 9/10- This game looks really good for when it came out. It completely blows the N64's graphics away. However, there are games on the Cube that really look good now that it is nearing the end of its lifecycle.
Gameplay: 9/10- The controls may seem akward at first, but they are really easy to get used to.
Sound: 7/10- There is hardly any sound in the game except for Luigi humming and some occasional music during fights. Don't get me wrong, the sound is really good, its just that there's not enough of it.
Entertainment: 8/10- Fun but a bit short.
Spook-fest!

With amazing graphics and a funny cast Luigi's mansion will have you screaming with joy. This games star is none other thenLuigi, Marios brother. You take control of Luigi as you bring him around a mansion filled with ghosts,spooks and other scary things in search of his brother. Its the game to get! [....]

Well, I must say a pretty good launch game from Nintendo, but certainly not their best. This game basicly lacks replay value, and that hurts a game now, a lot. So, instead of adding more levels, they basicly give you, (after you beat the game) the same mansion just only with a few items in different spots. After playing the Japanese version I wasn't disappointed at all, as a matter of fact, I was highly impressed. The puzzles are simple and not very complex, that is until you inch your way to the end, then it starts to pick up a bit, but nothing to absoultly tease your brain over. For the average gamer, 14- and up, I'll say 8-12 hours of gameplay, if that, so rent this one before a purchase.
Fun...While it lasts...

The game is fun and includes a great battle with Bowser at the end, but is too short. I beat the first trip into the mansion in only a few days, with minimal help from guide-material.
A cool game

This is a very original, and beautifully detailed game. It's very short and has little replay value.
Mario sunshine is much better.

I bought Luigi's Mansion the first day it came out and at the end of the second day it got old. There is nothing 2 do. Only buy this game if you want to spend lots of time looking for stuff.
A great game

First off, this is a great game. It shows what the GameCube is capable of. Basically, all you do is suck up ghosts and move on to the next room. It's NOT as boring as it sounds. It's really not a bad game. I would highly recomend this game to everyone.
A 3 1/2 star if there was

Luigis Mansion was supposedly to sell the gamecube. When I first got this game it was amazed by the graphics and the gameplay and how fun it is. I had been researching this game a lot before the cube came out, by the way I got the gamecube and mansion on the first day it came out. 5 days later I have beaten the third boss out of four and I haven't been playing that much. I expected this game to be another Mario 64(by the way which was the best nintendo 64 game ever made). I thought this game would be extremely fun(which it is), extremely interesting, exploring new levels and everything and just an increadable game that would take me a couple mounths to beat. I was completely bummed that it lost its interest so quickly. There is undoubtedly no other word for this game : DISSAPOINTING. When I looked at how many levels there was on this game(which there is 5)I thought this game would talk a long time, like mario 64 which took me probobly 3-4 months to beat it fully. It is interesting though the boss' and the different paintings people that you can suck up. This game is very fun in the beggining then it sort of losses its juice after awhile. I would rather rent this game instead of buying it.
Great game

The game's got goods. Graphics, fairly decent plot, and lots of fun. The only issue I had was with length. I played the game without a memory card, and managed to get through the entire game without being able to save. Other than that though, the game really was extraordinary.
Wow GREAT game...

This game is great in every possible way. The light and shadow effect is just PERFECT ! And the annimation is great ! The only thing I don't like it that the game is NOT long ... I was playing for about 10hours and i'm finish... It's a good game but I took off a "star" in the rating because of that...
Well I recomend that game...If you wanna play a quick game...
