Mario feels like a giant enema... all of his games except the few more recent ones are almost exactly the same: princess peach is either kidnapped by an angry plumber or a firebreathing snapping turtle and another blumber (aka mario) must save her, and he has to collect stuff which is gaurded by creatures that can be crushed by your bodyweight and you have to jump obstacles to get the items, once all items are collected you face the giant tortoise or the plumber and you fight, and for all your troubles you get a kiss and you get to go back to scrubbing toilets... THE END! it sucks, it misses all gaming elements: the plot is virtually non existant and doesnt draw you in at all... the soundtrack is mostly remakes, the gameplay is fun but never as fun as a FPS, RTS or RPG (excluding red alert 3 and fallout 3) and is hardly challenging... basically IT SUCKS GIANT ITALIAN PLUMBER PEEWEE!
