Its a great game and in the sequal Olimar goes back to the planet to find his friends, the pikimin, are under attack my an evil army of killer animals/bug. He must save them all and defeat the army. I think that would be great. They should add the choice to see a instant replay of the last minute so you can watch the pikimin getting eaten by the emeny in slow-mo. :)

It is a shame that it didn\'t get much recognition from people.  I wish more games were as new and inovative as this.

Bozco: Yeah, only a few games this year innovated as much as Pikmin does for its genre.

ICO.. GTA3.. Pikmin.. errm, that\'s about it for innovation in 2001.

I\'d throw in Ka.... and Super Monkey Ball, although it isn\'t a new idea.

Yeah, and Rez was pretty unique.. plus Luigi\'s Mansion.

Although, most of the big hitters (MGS2, FFX, Halo, SSBM, Rogue Leader, DOA3, GT3, etc) have been done..

That\'s the problem here. ;)

Even if it\'s "kiddy", I beat it and it was very fun. Innovative compared to the other big games this year too..

I played all the way through Luigi\'s Mansion and I am 24. I thought it was a lot of fun. What is wrong with kiddie games? Personally I like them better then the blood and guts games.

Yeah. I mean, unless they go to the extreme with kiddiness (disrupting gameplay) I don\'t mind it..

Luigi\'s Mansion was more on the easy side than the hard side.. but it had solid gameplay and enough challenge to get me through it. It\'s too bad that it\'s so linear; after I finished it, I had little reason to play again.

For such a linear game, they should have bundled a "challenge mode" of sorts in there like Pikmin\'s.. :o

It wasn\'t no break through title, but I have to say it was a game that could be enjoyed for people over five. I\'m near 19 and loved it.

Atta boy! ;]

But yeah, unless you really get hooked on Luigi and try to get higher and higher scores, it\'s going to last you about 5 hours.  Giving that you might only buy a couple games at launch, you might give it more of a shot, but if you get too many, you\'ll quickly forget about Luigi in favor of the others.

In fact, I got so many myself that I barely made any progress in Rogue Leader.  I got to say, level 5ish, and the objectives were so unclear that I couldn\'t progress.  I moved on...  I kind of want to boot it up and try again, now...
