Luigi's Mansion 2: Dark Moon Review Thread

In my experience, pre-ordering is usually the most affordable way to get Nintendo games. I have Dark Moon on lock for $19.99. If I were buying it a year from now, I'd be paying no less than $30, and that's probably just a temporary sale.

Huh? Do you have a gift card or something? I spent an Amazon gift card this week on this and Kid Icarus, and am getting it for like $22.

Nah, not a gift card, just a pre-order promotion. Like Newegg's, for example. I ordered it at Future Shop.

Why bother? Nintendo already desecrated Luigi by giving it to these American idiots. Why should I change my avatar just because they fucked it up royally?

I hope you're kidding, otherwise I thought I'd let you know that you're generally an unpleasant person to read comments from.

Extremely excited for this game.

Anyways, looking forward to this game! Was hoping to finish Etrain Odyssey 4 before this came out, but not sure I can accomplish that now.

While I love this game, not one review I have read has said that it would be better on WiiU. If this game was on PsP or Vita that is what many reviewers would have said.

Gametrailers Review makes this game look good. I lay thing I don't like is that in Multiplayer you play ass different color Luigis. It's 2013 we should be able to choose between characters in the Mario universe. I know it's a small nitpick. But other then that this game looks ACE. Between this and Fire Emblem I might not sell my 3DS yet. Square just needs to bring there games over and ill be set.
 
Come on guys. Don't be this daft and fall for the blatant trolling attempt.

I am quite shocked how well this game seems to have been received. Looking forward to the midnight download.

Sony handhelds are treated as second class citizens from Sony on down. Nintendo handhelds aren't.
 
What are you woahing at? Next Level fucked it up, pure and simple. Why should I even entertain the idea of removing my avatar just because the game is shit? I shouldn't have to.

Fuck this thread, fuck this game, fuck Nintendo.

peace

Clearly trolling/sarcasm. Guy's been following this thread closely and was fine until the review thread. Come on, you're better than this.

Oh dear, he spotted one 7/10 review and is now melting down.

disgonbgud.

This isn't a meltdown, this is a protest. I'm refusing to buy the game on the grounds that Nintendo took 12 years of development time and came up short by giving it to an American studio with no talent.

Who's with me?

I'm not sure if it's part of your act, but they're Canadian fyi

Now you're just trying too hard.
 
lol I can't believe some of you guys are taking noffles seriously.

Watching the video reviews has me incredibly hyped now. Lots of care and attention to detail went into this game. Lovely.

Got a few chuckles but that one way overdid it.

Only because people are responding seriously to him.
C'mon guys!

Yeah, stop taking him seriously. He's obviously just doing this to provoke reactions and you're all just giving him what he wants.

Honestly, sometimes I think GAF just isn't active in thinking about what people post. It's like you all just expect the gaming community to be so stupid as to go apeshit over a score that's actually pretty decent like a 7/10 or an 8.8 out o-

oh

I like to play with you, GAF. You're fun to play with.

Seriously though, I'm glad this is getting reviewed well. Is there a Eurogamer review up yet?

Telegraph: 5/5
Tom Hoggins said:
The Zelda comparisons are down to design philosophy, rather than Luigi’s Mansion providing a like-for-like experience. In fact, this is a game unlike any other. Incomparable, yet instantly accessible. The best Nintendo games have a knack of providing the perfect worlds for the perfect heroes, and this is the foundation on which Luigi's Mansion is built. Cracking.
 
this game is going to give me everything. dead @ this potentially being a better zelda game than the last couple of handheld zelda games.

To everyone complaining about the Polygon review:

Notwithstanding anything else you're talking about, this idea needs to die an immediate death. There is no video game reviews arbitration board defining what a low score means. If you as a reviewer have the best time with a game you've ever had in your life but find the subject matter to be disgustingly abhorrent, you're well within your right to give it as low a score as you want. There is no "A for effort" in the critical evaluation of art or media.
