MARIO PARTY 7
REVIEW
Concept
Wow, I can't believe Mario Party has already made it to 7.  I wonder what they'll do for 10?...  Anyway, on his latest trek, Mario and friends are visiting locations based on real world locations (I'd guess because there's 7 continents, or something?) like Pyramid Park (Egypt) and Neon Heights (Las Vegas, Nevada).  It's an interesting idea, along with over 80 mini-games, the new reigning champ for most new games (beating out Mario Party 5). Score:
5/5
Graphics
Unfortunately, the graphics seem to have taken a hit in this installment, and the game looks less polished than 5 and 6. Score:
4/5
Sound
Hey, guess what?  I'm going to say the SAME THING I did for the other games. ;)  The tunes are catchy and repetitive, the voices and sound effects are kind of annoying.  But they're all Mario-flavored! Score:
4/5
Playability
I'm getting so repetitive with these games!  I'm sorry.  But the controls still haven't changed, everything is exactly the same.  Easy control on the board, directions for the mini-games before each one. Score:
5/5
Entertainment
You gotta love those mini-games.  There's a lot of them in this Mario party, and they're always lots of fun. Score:
5/5
Replay Value
Moderate.  Again (I know, not again!), these games won't keep you occupied for very long.  It's just lucky they're released so often. Score:
3/5
OVERALL: 8.7/10
