    Good Points: Gameplay mechanics are extremely innovative, specifically because it involves the use of the action command and the badge system.
    The soundtrack is amazing, because it included classic themes from the mario games and it isn't repetitive to listen to.
    The average gamer can finish the game in about 20+ hrs, but there are a ton of side quests to look forward to throughout the main adventure.


    Bad Points: The graphics, although colourful and witty, could have been improved to create the paper themed universe to look more like paper.
    Although the text-based conversations in the game were humorous and creative, at times the game featured very heavily text-based conversations that dragged on for minutes.


    General comments: Don't let the look fool you. I consider "Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door" to be THE BEST RPG game on the gamecube. The game vastly improves itself while fixing the problems from the n64 version. The gameplay is what will keep you hooked for hours. The graphics could have been better, but this is easily overlooked. The gamecube days are probably long gone, but try to find a way to get your hands on this game. This is an adventure you do not want to miss.

    This was a huge step up from the original Paper Mario. It has a great plot and story line with some super great twists. Also, when playing it remember it is an RPG.

    Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door. A fantastic game for a great console it took quite a bit of time to complete. There was a good amount of humour involved.

    Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door is perhaps the best RPG for the GameCube. It's a mixture of intelligent humour, paper-thin graphics, and a superb soundtrack, composed by Yuka Tsujiyoko. It is a gem of a game that equates to around 50 hours of fun.

    Younger players may find it a bit complicated, and may not understand some of the humour or "questionable" references (i.e. Mario getting involved in the Mafia, elopement, Peach in the shower, death of TEC etc), and maybe a 7+/11+ rating is bett ...
