Mario Kart looks gay as usual...

I'm looking forward to Pikmin 2 though.

if mario kart was online, I'd buy it the day it was released. But now, I'll probly just rent it whenever it comes out and play it with some friends. looks cool, but without online compatability, I'll probly get bored of it fast, because at the end of the day, mario kart is a racing game, and I'm not a big fan of that genre. unless it was online, damn that would be sweet.

pikmin 2 looks bleh. thats all I got to say about that game.

And this game is supposedly done? What the hell? How can zelda and metroid look so good and this game look so.....bleh. TEXTURES. Jesus, what do we have to do for a little bump mapping here and there.

I'm sure the game will be fun but I'm really think we've earned the right to expect a little more from our games in the graphics department.

Oh yeah, this would have been impossible for 8 players on broadband

Er, you do know that you can use the LAN feature to play this game online, Gamespy have just signed on to do such things.

Yeah......matter of fact I mentioned that in another thread.

But it's still no where near as good as a nintnendo supported dedicated service.

Well, I doubt the game is complete, just look at the screenshots and you can see that the orders of racers isn't in order in most of them, which atleast tells me it's a work in progress,

And I don't know, I never really found out where people want Mario games to go graphical, sure it can be cleaned up a bit, but eh.

It would appear that yet another Nintendo-produced videogame masterpiece is imminent then.....

True. Infact, I heard that the networking code would have to be top notch, and allow for a higher banwidth (or some jargon like that), so that lag wouldn't be a pain in the arse.

But if it worked for Halo, then who knows

Always been a fan of mario kart games... il prolly buy it or at least give it like 6 rents over GC's life cycle if its good... sit down with a couple friends and play this game all night is kina fun

Mario Kart looks great! Go Bowser!

And having no time limit in Pikmin 2 may make it worthy of buying. A lot of you guys are too fixed on the non-updated graphics since the last one though. Graphics aren't everything.

The addition of Link and Zelda would've been nice IMO. The only thing I don't like is the Karts' desing. Other than that, the games looks as fun as a Mario Kart game should be. I kinda like the two characters per kart thingy already. I'm still a little disapointed that the game will not feature online play. I don't have broad band so I can't get online. Anyways, the four player mode has always been fun-as-hell and that will keep me satisfied for sure. And, IMO, it would be cool if Zelda and Link were secret characters in the game.

The vehicles in Mario Kart look like Power Wheels... Custom made Power Wheels...

And Pikmin 2 looks like Pikmin 1...

And you want me to believe you're the leader of the free world?

Don't waste my time...

Now where'd I leave my ham sandwich?
