Soul Sacrifice was on PS+ last year, so I certainly won't be springing for the expanded edition. But the write up says you can transfer a save from the orignal to Delta, so I can always upgrade if I like it 
I know! I guess it's only possible on computers because of the openness of the platform. At least you can get decent sales on digital console games if you pay attention...not that I prefer digital games 
I love this game so much and heartily agree with everything you said. Definitley one of my all-time favorite games. The characters, the music, the story—it's all just so good. Man, now i want to play it again lol.
Haha, you had me going for a second, though I was trying to figure out why you didn't pick one of the, um, better Sonic games. The Mario Galaxy games are a fantastic choice. They are the essence of fun distilled down to their purest form.
Cool cool. Also, good to see you're putting Pixlbit's "Article Series" link feature to good use 
You should get one. It'd be a blast playing with your kids
Pretty sure it's Gorbachev from the Cold War-era Soviet Union. I don't know where that particular picture comes from though.
The most important thing you need to enjoy a Mario Party game is other people to play with, the more the merrier. It's rather dull as a solo affair. As for which one to play, I'm partial to the original because I played it so much as a kid (you have to set the ground rule that you won't use your palm to rotate the control stick though; that's the only game in the series that uses that mechanic) but MP7 is probably the most robust. I don't think the imprecision of motion controls do the minigames any favors in MP8 & 9, not that they ruin the games either.
