I played just the soccer game where you gotta knock down the 7 goombas. It was on master difficulty and my friend and I were getting absolutely sauced for like 45 minutes straight. Then we played our 6th "last try" and for a few precious moments we became one. Our minds and bodies were connected not just with one another but with the trees and the animals. We saw the universe and the universe smirked back.

As far as I'm concerned I played this game and it was the greatest moment of my life.

Main game Mario Party really do be some bullshit sometimes though.
