MARIO
sunshine
Where to start on this title??? IT'S MARIO! That's it. So go buy it. The End.
Well, it looks like you are still here. If you REALLY want to know more about this title then I'll go ahead and tell you all you need to know with as few spoilers as possible. The story is pretty simple. Mario and Peach are taking a well deserved vacation on Dolphic Island. But somebody on the island is impersonating him and trashing the island with mud. Mario then seeks to clear his name. And the adventure begins!
STORY
GAMEPLAY
The gameplay is AWESOME because, well, it's Mario what did you expect? Leave it up to Shigeru Miyamoto to be totally amazingly creative. How does Mario clean up the island after his evil imposter? A water squirting device on his back of course. But the game doesn't just consist of walking around mopping the floor, that's for sure! The water device can do lots of stuff! It allows Mario to hover, jump super high, propel
along the ground, wall jump, and SO much more! Mario also has the unique ability to walk along a tightrope, and even hang from it and swing himself around and around. With loads of new moves and features, you can bet that this game will surpass the awesome Mario 64. And that's a lot to say for a video game. Thanks Shigeru Miyamoto!
GRAPHICS
Ah, the moment you've all been waiting for, right? Well, I'll start out with the bad. Mario Sunshine doesn't have the best graphics ever... That's the bad news. The good news is that its still pretty to look at! The water effects are extremely well done (which is good since the game focuses greatly around water) The levels are vast and as you can tell by the screenshots, extremely colorful! For me that is a huge plus!!! Games with bright colors and large levels to explore are my favorite! (Zelda, Mario, Banjo-Kazooie, etc.) So don't worry, the graphics are nothing to be ashamed of. Though it will not constantly have amazing visuals like Metroid or Starfox, you can bet that it will have some nice spots and besides, anything lacking in graphics is made up tenfold in gameplay!
PROS.

-large, colorful worlds to explore
-tons of new moves
-new characters
-created by Shigeru Miyamoto
-unique water backpack brings new level of gameplay
-nice water effects

CONS.
