Ok I beat the game yesterday and I loved almost every second of it (Except the glitchy as ♥♥♥♥ toad in the 4th mansion) and all I can say is that this game really rewards the curious, I believe I found almost every secret area which rewards money.
Also the multiplayer is great as well, I was playing it for 2 and a half hours yesterday, mostly in rush mode (We got to floor 15 and then my game crashed ._., damn scripting errors).
It's also quite good how some of the people have a sense of humor, me and one other guy did a 5f expert hunter mode with an afk guy, we got to floor 4 when the non afk guy died followed by me the next minute, the afk guy then died quickly afterwards, I then clicked the right D-pad button to make Luigi say 'Good Job' however I used it sarcastically.
read at risk, y overall opinion: show Overall I'm debating whether this one is better than the first one, although it is better overall in my eyes, I feel that the first games sound effects and after game was a bit better.
Oh yeah also this games soundtrack is great, especially the 2nd and final mansions. The first and 3rd are very atmospheric however.
