In my search for good games for my Wii, I saw one interesting: Mario Strikers Charged Football. Having not played its prequel, I was curious to know how was this game. I was so excited with the game, but when I opened the box... I saw an awful CD. I didn't like it. But the gameplay and graphics are made of awesomness. The intro is cool too! But now, let's check the game modes!

---------------
Game Modes
---------------
Domination Mode: You play against another team. Best used to practice. You can play other game modes to unlock cheats for this mode like: Kritter is the only one who can stop MegaStrikes, or No Power-ups and other stuff. There are five levels. I'll list them from the easiest to the hardest: Novice, Professional, SuperStar, Legend and MegaStriker.

My opinion: It's a necessary mode, for those who need to practise! 9.5/10.

Road to the Striker Cup: There are 3 cups and you have to beat them all! Difficulty increases with each cup 8or you can choose for it to be always difficult). Untill now, I was only able to beat 1 cup (I've been busy with other stuff). In the 1st cup there are 4 teams. You have to play against all of them twice. Then, there's a final, with the 1st and 2nd places. After that, there's a knockout match (3 games) against Bowser Jr. (Fire Cup), Diddy Kong (Crystal Cup) or Petey Piranha (Striker Cup). If you beat them, you unlock them in Domination Mode. You can also get some awards: For being the one with les goals suffered and the one who scored the greatest number of goals.

My opinion: Fun, but the knockout challenges can get boring. 9/10.

Striker Challenges: 12 challenges for you to beat. If you beat them all, you're a pro. No, really! They can get so difficult (but actually, the 10th challenge is SO easy). There are challenges like: Beating the game with a big disavantage, beating the game without conceding a goal and stuff like that (I'll post them all if you want). Some look impossible, while others are a piece of cake.

My opinion: Some are frustrating and almost impossible for begginers. 7.5/10.

Strikers ABC: This is the 1st mode you should play! You'll learn all the basics easily, with some challenges (nothing that can be called hard). If you want, I can list them all here.

My opinion: No one can live without this. 10/10.

Wi-fi Mode: Never tried it. NO RATING!

----------
Controls
----------
Personally, I think the controls are good, but it's easy to press the wrong button sometimes (that happens a lot to me). If you want I can list them, but I give them an 8.5/10

----------
Graphics
----------
This game's graphics are sweet and the intro video is awesome. 10/10!

---------
Overall
---------
I think tihs is a must-buy game, especially if you like challenges (and if your remote's wrist strap is strong, so that you won't break you TV). It's a 92/100.

BTW, if you want to know something, just ask me! I'm here to tell!

No, except on MegaStrikes. And people cheer for you if you have a power-up in your inventory.
