Mario Party 8 is a fun multiplayer game that was released for the WIi and it really isn't that new from Mario Party 7. The concept of Mario Party has stayed the same with 4 people playing on a board and whoever gets the most stars wins but with this being the 8th of the series you would expect something new but no. The game still has minigames and the same boring old characters. The controls for the Mario Party 8 are simply and the Wiimote I think is perfect for this type of game and it does work well.
The graphics aren't that good at all but really this game doesn't need good graphics to be fun.
The sound is not even that great at all and in my opinion it is worth then the graphics.
I think this game is at least a rent. If you enjoy it then I think you should check it out as some of the minigames are pretty fun and it is excellent with friends but don't get it if you don't have friends to play with.
