General Commentary and Game Overview
Definitely one of the cadillacs in Mario fangaming, this was an incredible adventure. The fun, yet Microsoft-abusive story, the well-combining graphics, the Yoshi humor, and the level design all kept me mashing my keyboard all the way to the end. However, some parts of the journey left me quite ready to pull my hair out. But, don't get me wrong. This was virtually perfect.
 
Pros Incredible level design, neat little tricks, and truly engaging bosses
 
Cons Especially frustrating parts, and some graphics taking a while to recognize
 
Impressions
Gameplay
10 / 10
This was the highlight. Start with normal Mario goombas and grass, and then... You get to hop around most of the Windows interfaces, eating up the coolest enemies and figuring out clever devices. Just great.
 
Graphics
9 / 10
The graphics were also great. I mean, come on! Who doesn't love everyone's favorite green steed bouncing around the Windows windows and DOS texts we all know and love/hate?
 
Sound
8 / 10
The music fit in perfectly... I couldn't think of any other tracks that would have worked better. However, some sound was a bit... unprofessional.
 
Replay
9 / 10
Even after beating it, I found myself unable to stop playing for quite a while. The slick and clever level designs kept me coming back for more and more... of the same. Very nice.
 
Final Words
9 / 10
With a fun storyline, great levels, and challenging bosses, Yoshi Vs. Windows truly deserves its place as an MFGG classic... especially with this platinum upgrade.
