FYI, TC, you didn't rate it, you just reviewed it.

Mario Party 4 is a fine game. It's actually one of my favorites, probably 2nd or 3rd favorite Mario Party.
It had a good story, some great minigames and an excellent soundtrack, the best soudntrack in the series if you ask me. And a lot of the minigame songs were amazing.

However, unfortunately, the game felt a bit sluggish and dry in Party Mode. The movements were too slow, and the boards were basically just squares of grey and felt a bit lifeless.
The story mode for this game was also a bit disappointing, it felt just like playing consecutive Party Modes, and you could even play the same boards in a row! There was nothing to remind you (I think) what boards you already completed. :/
But overall though, it's a great game.

I'd probably rate it an 7.7/10.
