1 out of 5 stars Repetitive combat, WAY too much backtracking, and slow moving dialogue.   September 3, 2007
 2 out of 7 found this review helpful

This game had potential, and artistically it's very well done, but it quickly becomes a chore to play:br /br /- Repetitive combat: there are only a limited number of unique enemies, with much of the "variety" created by simply changing colors/stats of previous bad guys. There are a few combinations of attacks that defeat most enemies, so most of the battles are fought the same way.br /br /- Uninspired level design: players are forced to walk back and forth across levels in order to complete quests, even though one time through a level would be plenty for many people. One level is comprised solely of battles, which are the most monotonous part of the game.br /br /- Slow dialogue: the dialogue is often so slow as to be painful to click through. And I know it's only Mario, but even with low expectations the story leaves a lot to be desired.br /br /- Frustrating badge system: Even if you only ever select badge point increases when leveling up, you will never have enough badge points to wear all the badges you want (not to mention the ones you don't care too much about).


5 out of 5 stars GET THIS GAME!!!   August 12, 2007
Well I want to tell you one of the reasons I love this game so much. It's because when you beat the final boss, instead of it having the fnal scene, credits, and finally forcing you to turn the game off, making it so that you lose your data and must continue from your last save, like you never beat the game, it has the scene, the credits, ANOTHER scene, and then it goes back to the game. It's all happy and peaceful in the game, and if you go back to the place where the final boss is, it's not there.br /br /But don't think the fun's not over yet! You see I like games that are fun and that you can enjoy after you beat them. You can still find enemies and battle them in it, revisit all the towns, explore, battle, etc. also this is an rpg (role-playing-game) where you collect items, have turn based battles, etc. unlike super paper mario. But it is still REALLY fun! There's also nice music. Intellgent systems and nintendo are really great copanys. This is one of the best rpgs ever. If you like paper mario 64 (the first paper mario game out of the three, for the classic Nintendo 64, the games go Paper mario 64, Paper mario the thousand year door, super paper mario) rpgs, or awsome games, then get it!


4 out of 5 stars Fun, But At Times Boring (Rating: 7 out of 10- -3.5 stars)   August 4, 2007
Paper Mario-The Thousand Year Door is a fun game. In fact, when it comes to anything by Super Mario, this would be ranked in the top 10. It's so fun the way the stage is set up when you fight an enemy. Mario and his friends has many great moves that can help him in his battles. You get to run around the map and talk to people, and some people say some funny things. The game is set up differently than other Super Mario games that are normally played, but at the same time, it's still fun. br /br /The problem I have with this game is the mass amount of dialogue. Yes, this game is sort of like a storybook, but it gets real boring after a while. In fact, after you beat a boss and get a Crystal Star, expect a 20 minute dialogue of reading, and it;s usally about nothing at all. That is the only problem that I have with this game. And sometimes, it's hard to figure out where to go next (and that guy who lives in Ancient Rockport doesn't always help you out), so that gets real frustrating. But overall a fun game. If you grew up playing Super Mario, like I did, this is a fun game to play. Peace!


5 out of 5 stars Paper Mario Thousand Year Door   July 14, 2007
I loved this game! It was so much fun. RPGs are my favorite types of games, and Nintendo really delivers with Paper Mario The Thousand Year door. The storyline is fun, and the gameplay is great. The fighting style is innovative, as you fight in front of an audience, and as you level up, the audience grows, refilling your Star meter faster. The Pit of 100 trials is a nice add-on bonus (it's not required, but it's fun, not to mention challenging!). Bobbery is favorite secondary character, as he can blow up the walls. The Paper Mario ability is great fun, as you can become a boat, airplane, and even a roll! Highly recommended to anyone who like Mario or RPGs!
