Do you guys actually know if it's any good or are you just guessing? Because even though the name sounds like typical shovelware, the boxart doesn't look like typical shovelware, in fact it looks interesting. If no one else gives it a try, i might.

So does Mario Party, and that is a great game.
But let us all avoid it, just because it has party in the title...

Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. But it isn't bad just because it has party in the title as you claimed.
And no, I don't trust you. Nor do I trust IGN. What constitutes a good game (as with books, art, music, movies etc) is subjective. I'll try it for myself and form my own opinions.

I think this Pirate party game is BAD... but if you like bad games it's VERY good, from my point of view though....so there is no use in reviewing games any more!!!

There has been little need of reviewing games since piracy on the net became so rife.
Reviews are something people read in the 80s, because they couldn't afford to try every game. I pirated then, too, but still read mags occasionally when on a bus or something. Little need to do that any more.
Mario Party got ~80% according to metacritic (professional critic and user), yet you don't like it - so it is good that you form your own opinions, otherwise you'd miss some games reviewers said were awful that are actually good.

TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
-
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -
