I found the game's tendency to award amazing toys to last place racers (including unavoidable weapons) and shitty toys to first place cut the skill out of the game almost as badly as RPG stats in a FPS. Bleh. I'll take Outrun 2006 over the entire Kart franchise any day.


Nothing is more boring than runaway leads in a multiplayer game (hi, CoD kill streak system!). It's almost as if having fun is more important than who can drift tighter turns.

It's no Deadly Rooms of Death amazing fun, but Mario Kart is all an ideal world of everyone trying to tear down the rich the instant they pull ahead.
