Mario Kart- Double Dash-- - 5 stars (It was the bom dog) - ThIs GaMe WaS
Mario Kart: Double Dash!! review:5 stars (It was the bom dog) - ThIs GaMe WaS tHe OnE.I love how u can get to pick out your own chracters instead of them just picking it for you.Each charecter has different stuff like if you double dash with peach and daisy they throw hearts at the other players to win , yoshi and birdo throw eggs,Ditty kong and donkey kong throw bannah peals which is realy annoying cause it slows me down exept for donkey and ditty kong and theres like so many more charecters but i hate typeing. BUY IT BUY IT BUY IT....To be truthful this is a kids game for like 16 or under otherwise if your older it may be a little to easy but i am 10 and it is so hard to beat star cup.Any ways i hope u read my other report on mario party 6.Oh another thing about this game is the charecter you pick you also get to pick a car also.And if u win one of the races u win a trophy and a new car sometimes and more places to race.5 stars (A great addition to an excellent Nintendo library) - This is the best Mario Kart game to date. I've played everyone except the one for DS. This is probably the best racing game every too because it is stragety compared to just speed. Anybody can put the pedal to the metal but can you stay ahead when you have no advantage in speed.
The best thing about this game is that you can use two characters at once. So one is driving(driver can hold an item also) and the other is throwing the items. That essentially turns the game from an 8 player game to a 16 player game. Chalk this game up on the list of Ultimate Nintendo party games. Whoever on the Nintendo staff thought that idea up should be put in the Nintendo hall of fame beside mario and donkey kong. That is pure genius. Now you can save an item that you may need instead of using it right away. The only catch is though that if you get hit by a shell, lightning, or banana, you drop all you items.
That can easily be avoided by dodging shells and bananas. How you may ask. Well here is the other, less noticably addition to the game. When playing with a friend in the back, they can press the L or R button to dodge things, slow drivers down, knock opponents of the road, or steal items from opponents.
The last addition is the ability to use specials. Maro & Luigi can throw green or red fireballs. Baby Mario & Baby Luigi can use Chomps to clear the road for them. Donkey Kong & Diddy can throw a giant banana. Wario & Waluigi can throw an explosive bomb. Bowser & Baby Bowser can throw a giant Bowser shell. Peach & Daisy can steal opponents weapons. Toad & Toadette can get unlimited boost for about 8 seconds. Yoshi & Birdo have a homing shell. Koopa & Paratroopa have 3 green or red shells. Last but not least Piranha Plant & Boo have ALL THE POWERS. All in all, this is a best game in the series and well worth owning for any serious Nintendo fan or Gamecube owner.5 stars (The second-best multiplayer Game Cube game (after Smash Bros Melee)) - This is the best racing game, ever. The entire Mario Kart series has never failed to impress me.
Other racing games (Need for Speed, for example) involve driving around circuits, maybe trying to find shortcuts (that's not all to them, but bare with me). Mario Kart involves strategically trying to stay ahead of your opponents with weaponry and power-ups, as well as the traditional short-cuts and drifts. Lay traps with banana-peels and fake item-boxes, knock-out foes with red or green shells, etc.
The newest feature of this game, if you didn't know already, is the ability to use 2 characters at once. You can pair up the default pairs: Mario & Luigi, Donkey Kong & Diddy Kong, etc.; or you can mix and match: Mario & Koopa Troopa, Princess Peach & Baby Bowser, whatever!
The other new feature is the unique character items. Each pair of characters has their own unique item. For example, Mario & Luigi have a fireball item, Donkey Kong & Diddy Kong have a giant banana peel, Bowser and Baby Bowser have a giant spiked shell, etc. etc. etc. Find your favourite 2 items and use 2 characters that have them! I personally like Koopa Troopa's & Koopa Paratroopa's triple-shell item.
There is no storyline to this game - just great gaming.
Secrets? You bet. Secret characters, courses (racing and battle-mode), racing modes, etc. Not to mention the shortcuts - many of which require the use of items to pass through.
Single player or multiplayer? Either way, you're going to race with up to 8 opponents (well, in multiplayer the maximum is 4 players). Single player is great and challenging, depending on the mode you use: 50CC is easy, 100CC is medium, 150CC is hard, and Mirror is 150CC with the courses reversed; very hard.
Multiplayer is great; the item system allows for a fairly even game: players coming last will get the best items, while players coming first will get poorer items that can be used for defense--shoot a green shell behind you to block an incoming red shell!
Graphics: 10/10 (the first full-3d Mario Kart game; Mario Kart 64 used 2D sprites for the characters)
Sound: 10/10 (the music is excellent and addictive)
Gameplay: 10/10 (single player and multiplayer will both keep you addicted)
Replay value: 11/10 (I don't think I will ever get sick of this game)
Overall: 10/10
Mario Kart is an essential addition to any Game Cube owner's collection, even if you don't like conventional racing games (I don't like them but I love Mario Kart!)
Bonus feature: you can link up 2 Game Cubes and play a LAN game of Mario Kart! I've never done this, myself.
I can't wait until the Mario Kart DS comes out.
