As the lean, green second string, Luigi has rarely been one to take the lead. But it's time for Luigi to get out of Mario's shadow — and head into the shadows and winding halls of some very spooky mansions. With the help of his trusty Poltergust 5000 ghost-sucking vacuum cleaner, the nervous and reluctant Luigi will have to face his fears to remove the stubborn specters from the mansions and collect some treasure along the way.Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon is the fun-filled follow-up to the Nintendo GameCube's original game, Luigi's Mansion. The mansions are full of a wide variety of ghosts, hidden areas, secret treasure and more. Rendered in stunning 3D, the mansions, ghosts and surroundings come to life like never before. Suck wallpaper off the walls with the Poltergust 5000 to reveal hidden areas, clean up piles of leaves that may be concealing hidden treasure and collect stacks of coins and bills for a nice reward. Use a new strobe function to stun the ghosts before sucking them up. Bury your fears, take a deep breath and get ready to encounter some very scary spooks.

Good game.

I will put this as a 4 star. Reason....Son likes the game, but he go this and the newest Zelda at the same time, and Zelda pulls him in more. They are different games, and he does like this game, but he says it is good, but he would not put it in the great category. More of a 3.5, but going up to a 4 on it as I think he would like it better if he didn't have the other game to distract him.

Might be the best game of all time.

I am not going to go into my usual long review type of thing here as most have probably already read reviews. I will say that most of the reviews you read are spot on. Great graphics, huge world, good story (not great), best combat in an RPG with maybe the exception of Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning.
Note to parents - This is RATED M, and is rated this for a reason. Before getting this make sure you understand what you are buying.

My son loves this game. He easily gives it a 5 star rating. I am not sure what all I can add here as I have not played it, but I can tell you he keeps going back to it time and again.

You walk through the brush and into a clearing. Armed with your wits and a powerful weapon that collects the energy from attacks, you feel confident that you're prepared for anything. Out here in the vast wilderness between towns and villages is where the most danger lies. Just as you begin to investigate the massive footprint on the ground, the trees begin to rustle, scaring the birds away. You feel the ground tremble and shake, and then the trees part and a beast of unbelievable proportions emerges. You take a deep breath, charge your weapon and prepare for battle — this is why you are a Monster Hunter.Become part of a traveling caravan that explores new lands and villages as a hunter in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, the latest installment in the popular Monster Hunter franchise. Craft and acquire hundreds of new items and equipment, including all-new rare and powerful G-rank weapons and armor. Take advantage of more fluid climbing motions and the inclusion of jump attacks from walls or ledges to surprise your enemies. Pay attention to the changing terrain that can be altered in battle. Some monsters can cause even ground to slant into a steep slope that could cause you to slide right out of the zone. Jump on top of monsters to deliver a furious burst of attacks with the new gameplay mechanic. Equip yourself with two new weapon classes — the Insect Glaive and the Charge Blade — in addition to the 12 previous weapon types that have been updated and enhanced. Connect with up to three other players over local wireless or via the Nintendo Network to join forces and take down larger-than-life beasts. Do you have what it takes to become the ultimate Monster Hunter?

Overrated but good.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this game for two reasons. Got a great deal, and it got 5 star reviews almost everywhere.
When it comes to games it is all personal preferences, so keep that in mind that what I write is my own opinion.
Pros:
Graphics - Best looking game on the system by far...at least in my library
Fighting - Going out for the hunt is lots of fun.
Lots of content.
Neutral:
Menu is fine but not great.
Some fighting can be redundant. Not always a bad thing.
Bad:
That darn Cat - I was told I didn't have to play with the darn thing, but already had.
Hand Holding - or lack there of. The game did a terrible job of showing you the controls and how to navigate. Took me a while to figure things out. It would be nice for them to have spend a little time guiding you for new players.
I would recommend this game. Don't let my comment deter you from a good game. Something can be good and overrated at the same time, and Monster Hunter 4 is one of those games. I would give it a 7 out of 10.

Great case for a great price

I use this with my New 3DS and it fits it perfectly. I did remove the elastic piece out of the case, and like it much better after that. Also fits 3 games plus one in the system, so can travel with 4 games. Some might like to take a huge collection with them...I am not one of those people as I usually have only 2 I am playing at any given time, so 4 is plenty. Again 3 in the sleeve and one in the system. Great buy, and easy to recommend.

One of the best if not the best RPG for the New 3D
on August 19, 2015
Posted by: tshrimp
Verified Purchase:Yes
Good:
Story
Control
Great quests
Types of moves during fighting is great. Love the chain attacks.
Open world that lets you go where you want to some degree - better be leveled up :).
Neutral:
Graphics - Better than what some reviews would have you believe, but not cutting edge.
Bad:
Upgrade menu - Takes a while to figure out
Quests guidance - This RPG does not show you where your quests are. You kind of have to figure this out. Sometimes this is not an issue, but when you finally figure out that the person you are to meet only shows up at 10pm in an unspecified location you realize that a little more info would have been nice.
Side Mission Musts - You must complete many many side missions before you level up enough to go through the story. The reason this is bad for me....I like to do some side missions and then hit the story. Complete the mission (or close to finish) and then go to more side missions assuming I am not tired of playing the game. Getting into the story at a low level will cause some frustration.
Even with all the bad it is a great game. Yes there are faults I find that others might not have an issue with.

Nothing compares to the feeling you get on race day. Your heightened senses take in all of the surrounding sights, sounds and smells — the faint whiff of burnt rubber and the thick, oily odor of gasoline, the engines revving and good-natured taunts between rivals and the metallic glint of candy-colored paint jobs. The focused pursuit of first place has taken you around the world, and you've faced some of the most treacherous courses on this planet — perilous, mind-bending turns, bumpy, hill-strewn tracks and much more. Your gloved hands tighten around the wheel as you eagerly await the signal. As the race begins, you expertly shoot into a leading position, navigating the course with the confidence of someone already imagining that trophy in their hands.Project Cars puts you behind the wheel of exhilarating, fast-paced racing action, allowing you to create a driver and choose from a variety of motorsports. Experience more than 60 exciting tracks, racing at every time of day and in rapidly changing weather conditions. Establish your place in racing history in season mode, create your own mode or improve your racing prowess in on-track testing. Feel as if you're actually behind the wheel thanks to support for Project Morpheus and Oculus Rift, which enables you to play as if you're looking through the driver's eyes. Race online in up to 20-player races, so you can rise to the top and display your skills. Immortalize your name in the history of racing in Project Cars.

Best Racing on the PS4
on August 19, 2015
Posted by: tshrimp
Verified Purchase:Yes
By far the best racing on the PS4.
Good:
Graphics
Controles with Wheel - Spot on response
Weather effects actually effect cars and how you must drive
Progression
Difficulty settings - Love the slide bar instead of the minimal control over it with easy/normal/hard.
Neutral:
Menu is fine, but not good, not bad. Works fine though.
Bad:
No game is perfect, but as of now I really can't think of anything that is bad with this game.
If you like racing games this one is a must have IMO. I don't even like sim stye racing games, but this one is an exception.
