Summary This is almost a great game but almost the same game but with way better graphics for the Sony Playstation. Crash Team Racing !!! This is still a great game though with the battle part of the game and the time trials you can really beat some a$$. This game is really fun. I like this game a lot. It is really fun. I have gotten trophies on all four cups. Gold on three silver on one. This is acutally a great Player's Choice game that came out in 1997. I like this game because it has fairly good graphics. The graphics in this game are not as good as Crash Team Racing.The controls in this game are very easy to use and the game runs fast. It is really good. It is good for a Player's Choice game that's for sure. The graphics in this game are pretty good. It is pretty 3-D and it has almost perfect body fat and 3-D graphics on Mario, D.K., and even Toad or Princess. The sound in this game is pretty important and almost excellent. It sounds when you start the motor to soon and they squeak and twists. It sounds really cool! I like the sounds in this game a lot. Sound -Gameplay -Would you like to Comment?

Firstly, and most obviously of all, it is far too easy for experienced gamers. It also seems strange to me how when you fall behind in a race you begin overtaking other racers with ease, but when you do take the lead the chasing pack seem to catch up with you, however far you are winning by. I think the difficulty level is not helped by the fact that the computer racers cannot use certain useful pickups like the red homing shells, and they make poor use of the ones that they do use. The two player grand prix is good though.The single player isn't the driving force behind the sucess of Mario Kart (that was admittably terrible!) , it is for most gamers the multiplayer. The races are great fun, and the way that the pickups given to losing players get steadily better depending on their lower positions always helps even things out. The battle mode is also great fun and a paticular favourite of mine, in which you and up to three other gamers can use shells, bananas, fake pickups and sheer brute power (when big characters ram little ones) to beat the living hell out of one another in a last man (or woman) standing match. The time trial is also a good addition to the game, and is terribly difficult to master. To sum it up this game is great in multiplayer, which merits 5 out of 5 alone, but pretty easy, if slightly fun, in single player. Sound The tunes are very happy and cheerful, but that isn't a bad thing, and some of the tracks are actually quite nice to listen to. Although the character voices are a little repetetive, the are are a vital part of the happy feel to the game. Luigi and Wario's voices are paticularily amusing. The lack of music in more than two player multiplayer is a bit of a let downGameplay Mario Kart is very easy to play, and very easy to beat the computer at, but this ease of control makes it very simple for people to get together to play its stunning multiplayer. The game runs very smoothly.Would you like to Comment? Join VideoGameReview for a free account, or Login if you are already a member.

It's a classic update of the SNES Mario Kart game. All the racers are there and there are many courses and stuff to do.Sound The Mario sounds are all in here. The upbeat tunes fit into Mario Kart 64 very nicely.Gameplay It is great. There are many courses and cups to compete in. The tracks are all greatly designed and are fun to race again and again. You have all the Mario characters in here as well.Would you like to Comment? Join VideoGameReview for a free account, or Login if you are already a member. Summary I love this game. There is lots of replay value, and I like the different track themes. The multiplayer mode will keep you playing for a long time.Sound You can hear the roar of the engines clearly and the music isn't annoying.Gameplay It's easy to control the karts and it is pretty challenging at 150cc.Would you like to Comment?

Some people say that it isn't as good as the one on Super NES. I disagree. The only reason Super Mario Kart is so great is because it was ground braking for the technology of the Super NES. This arcade racer is cerainly lots of fun and will keep gamers hooked. There was one main downfall for me on this game, no Koopa Troopa (My Favorite on Super Mario Kart) but nothing that would stop me from buying this game. The multi-player races and battle mode greatly add to the replay value.Sound Pretty good sounds that fit this game well. The background music fits the theme of Mario Kart very well. The sounds made when you get hit by somebody bigger than you (example: Toad and Bowser), getting hit by a shell, hitting a banana, etc. are also great.Gameplay Lots of fun. The tracks are very creative and and designed brilliantly. The multi-player is also great, the only think I didn't like about it (when playing with more than two people) is that the people I'm playing against always committ suicide because they want to become a bomb and try to kill the other players. The down fall to that is that if playing w/ three people and two die, there are no other players to kill because somebody will have won!Would you like to Comment?

When I get headaches I turn it down with the L buttonGameplay Some say this is not as good as the SNES version I agree. The gameplay is different but still fun.Would you like to Comment?

Summary I think Mario Kart is the best racing game in the world. I still race a lot with my friends. We all want to be the best and there's a lot to learn before you can call yourself a master. I know all the tricks and this game is all about strategies. There are numerous ways to use your weapons, and if you're good you will definetely win. If you don't, you're not good enough. Sometimes you feel like blaming the game for losing, or you might have some bad controllers, but it's still about them skills!Sound The sounds are all-right. I really like the annoying sounds, the characters make, this way, the tension between the players increases.Gameplay If you play the game as much as i do, you will sometimes get bored with the tracks, but after a while you will feel the urge to race again. Over and over. I wish there were more tracks in the game, but I ain't complaining. The game is only interesting when you play it with your friends (or feinds, actually!)Would you like to Comment?

It has tons of replay value since you can race up to four people.Sound the music I think is pretty good. I like the music that they play on rainbow road. Peach's voice is the only part of the game that I just cannot stand.Gameplay Excellent! it is easy to learn, but it takes a while to master. different karts add different dimensions to the play. there are tons of items to collect in the levels which adds to the fun. There isn't a better feeling than knocking your opponent of the track.Would you like to Comment? Join VideoGameReview for a free account, or Login if you are already a member.
