A near-perfect blend of old, new and RPG chattiness

Even the game's dialogue, one of its strongest points, becomes too much in the end. But you will press on. You'll grab an invincibility star and crack a grin from ear to ear as a towering 8-bit Mario razes the entire level. You'll laugh when Luigi's "Brobot" comes down to wreak havoc on the team. Hell, you might even care about why the Purity Hearts can stop the Chaos Heart from usurping all that is. We sure did, annoyances be damned.

i love this game...i was a bit sceptical buying it at first after not liking the turn based rpg version on the game cube, but i was amazed when i was playing it, the only flaw i can find is the sound text makes when it scrolls down gets damn annoying...and on a completely differtent note I LOVE KARL PILKINGTON

I own all three of the papare mario games for their respective systems, and I have to say this game really isn't the same. first you can't use a hammer for the first 13 individual chapters. The flipping is cool but loses its fun after a couple minutes, making you flip just for the sake of slowing you down. Finally you dont have to waste a partner with a stupid tattle ability, but the backup partners from the old games were loveable, unlike the new Pixls. All in all, this game is fun to play but just doesn't feel like Paper Mario.
