Super Mario 64 has got to be one of the greatest games every created, and I am not just saying this because everyone else does. This coming from someone who had beaten the game with all the stars. But hey, I am MARIOPWNZ64 and this is my review of Super Mario 64.  Remember while I review this I am expressing my opinions on a video game that I think is very good and these are MY opinions so if you respect my opinions I will the same to you! 


GRAPHICS=9 
Oh my, the graphics in this game are just superb. It was the first time in video game history that Mario went to 3D and it shaped the way we video game today! The graphics were amazing and were colorful and polished, You can easily tell were you are and what something is and it is was to Good, The animations are also very good as well, My favorite animation would have to be when Mario had been waiting for so long and decides to go to sleep and it just makes me want to laugh, so I am giving the graphics a generous rating of 9.


SOUND=10
The soundtrack of this game is very memorable and deserve to be recognized a little bit more, from the fantastic theme of bomb-omb battlefield to the final boss of the game. It makes you want to jam out to the music, also I want to mention a fun piece of trivia! Did you know that in the Japanese version of Super Mario 64, Mario did not speak and was silent the whole game? So putting the fact aside, I am giving this game's soundtrack a 10. 

STORY=10
The story is very simple, Mario is invited to the Mushroom Kingdom to have some cake with Peach, However, once he arrives he is greeted with Bowser explaining to him that he had imprisoned all of the inhabitants of the Kingdom into the various paintings throughout the castle and it is up to Mario to collect the power stars to restore and rescue the Mushroom Kingdom, the story is simple and Memorable, and so I am giving this game's story a 10.

DEPTH=10
Once you finish the game you want more action right? Well, there are about 120 stars to collect and a lot of them are hidden secret stars, the game's story is very massive and will not be beaten by a casual in one sitting, its like a constant quest to save the kingdom, with a game as big as this there is no doubt that I am giving it a 10.


 DIFFICULTY=4
This is not a hard game and the controls are easy to master, It might not seem like it but the game is the average in difficulty standards, You press A to jump, You use the analogue stick to walk in 8 directions. What else do you need, its like the old Mario except with a few changes, so I am giving this game's difficulty rating a 4.

ADDICTIVENESS=10
This game is very addicting and I even played and completed the game a second time just because it was so great, you know what I mean by playing it a second time and completing it, so I am giving this game's addictiveness a 10.

OVERALL SCORE=9.9
It's was a great day to see Mario jump to 3D and this game had a lot of effort put into it and is one of my most favorite games EVER MADE This game changed the way we play games introducing us to elements like traveling in 8 directions to the scrolling camera There is no doubt that this game is extremely popular, and thus concludes my review of Super Mario 64!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING!

You made a good review of The game, having a good structure and details and even talking about how Mario 64 influenced future Mario games. However I beg to differ: Mario's first 3D adventure was in Super Mario RPG: The Legend of The Seven Stars. Except when traveling from point to point on The world map The game was in full 3D (and annoyingly so at times).

Other than that, there was room for you to tell us more about your appreciation of The game. Are The rooms that Mario explore well-detailed or are they bland? Is The music realistic-like or is it highly synthesized like Final Fantasy VII?

But keep The good work!

Wow, a lot of people review this game! XD Super Mario 64 is my favorite game of all time. I've beaten it with 120 stars at least 20 times. Maybe I should play it a lot again and beat it 120 times for 120 stars!

As for your review, it was pretty good. Like janus mentioned, you could have went into more detail. But not too much more detail, you don't want so much more detail that it's a bore to read. For example, you could have given more examples of what you liked, and you could have given some examples of what you disliked.

The format of this review was excellent! It was very well spaced-out and you gave this review an enthusiastic mood. Keep up the great work!

I highly suggest you two check out play4fun's guide.
He could've gone into more detail, but as P4F said" Longer reviews do not mean better reviews! Good Reviews are in appropiate lengths!"
So From this review I'd say this guy has done everything just about right.
It's a good solid review, and it keeps it just enough for a casual reader to read it and rate it. That's what reviews should be in the long run.

I played Super mario 64, It's my 2nd favorite Mario game on the n64 as Paper Mario takes my crown for first.

Great job reviewing this game. keep it up
