...it was not as bad as I thought. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't think the game is the best ever, but it wasn't bad.
I was playing Koopa's Tycoon Town, and it was actually pretty fun. I was playing as Peach, and the CPUs are Daisy, Dry Bones, and Hammer Bro, all were on hard. Believe it or not, I was actually having fun, maybe I'm just saying this because I haven't played it in like a year, but yeah, it was fun lol I dominated the hotels, it was nice getting bargains at the Candy Shop (Thrice for 5 coins lol), and some of the mini-games were pretty ight'. The only thing I didn't like was: Daisy landed on the Lucky Space like 4 freaking times, CPU AI is very stupid lol, and I lost all my stars in one turn (I got them back but holy fuck). I may play more to get a better opinion, but yup, that's my opinion of Mario Party 8 right now.
