What can I say, it’s Mario Kart! Of course it’s addicting! The fact you can play it on just the gamepad makes it even more addicting! The only problem is, once you stop playing, you kind of forget about how much fun it is, and then when you pick it up again, you won’t be able to stop. Also, every character has their own horn, that’s just a small, but nice thing they threw in. But in 3-4 person multiplayer it’s so loud you can’t always hear the music! >.< Most of my time with the game I spent in multiplayer, so I needed to mention that slight oversight by making the engines loud. And that’s fine, most of the other games did this too. You might not be able to remember most of the newer courses' songs until a long time of playing.īut the problem I have is, you can hardly hear at all in multiplayer! While you hold down the gas button (AKA 99% of the race) your kart’s engine roars. The best are probably the remixes of older courses, used in the Retro Cups. There is a lot of great music in the game. Which can lead to some hilarious replay moments. One more thing, the characters actually turn their heads to see their items hit other racers. It just makes the game seem a bit better when it pays attention to small things like that.Īll in all, it’s a glorious HD Mario Kart with very nice attention to detail. And when you drive in the dirt, your tires get dirt on them. Also, in the sand you leave tracks behind your kart when driving. After a lap or two it starts looking like a real racetrack. There are also little things that I appreciated, when you go into a drift, you leave skid marks on the road. This game looks great! It’s a weird mix of realistic, and cartoony. And now we’ll delve a bit into this fun, and sometimes difficult game. Outside of the zero gravity thing, that’s pretty neat.
While cool, it’s not anything I haven’t seen before *cough cough F-Zero's did zero-gravity first *Cough Cough. With more parts, and the ability to drive up walls and upside down in zero gravity. It comes back to the gimmicks of the last Mario Kart, (customizable vehicles, gliders that serve no real purpose, coins, and underwater driving) ) and expands on it.
