A War-Room Worthy Mario Kart DS Review

Haterade or daring to tell the truth? Let the War Room decide.

Quote:
This is the same game that Nintendo has been peddling for ten years now and this DS version manages to dumb down the game mechanics from the previously released Double Dash!! on the GC. However it does add WiFi multiplayer and internet play but even taking the game online is underwhelming when you come face to face with its limitations. The multiplayer aspect will definitely win MK lovers over and for that alone I could recommend fans of the series with a DS, take a closer look. With apologies to John Cleese and Monty Python, just don't expect something completely different. You race, you pick up weapons, you shoot people who are in front of you and you try to win. It's perfect for those who don't have a lot of skill or expectations when it comes to racing games, but even as a kiddy racer, it just doesn't hold any interest for me and I can honestly say it wouldn't even if I was 12 years old right now.

3.0/5 from these guys. That's 60% for you math majors and it's rather weighing down the Game Rankings average (yes, this one counts where the Modojo 4/5 doesn't.)

Pull pin and throw....

No, seriously. Who the hell is Cheat Code Central, and why was that review written by somebody who has to sneak into R-rated movies?

This is why Gameraking has to make a clean up off sites,not crappy ones and not console specific sites.



Gamepro did the same with WWE giving it 2.5 when IGN has it with 9.2.


The over all of mario cart is 89% now and you can realy see for the rest of the ones that also count that the bad score realy drap the % down.


I will had to buy another DS and mario cart for sure,well i cancel my xbox 360 pre-order so i had anew found for it.

The Mario Kart series reminds of Bob Dylan; I can't understand why either are particularly famous. Bob Dylan can't sing and the Mario Kart series isn't really all that much fun when it comes right down to it.

Jesus ***** somebody got PWNED on the Wi-Fi.

I mean we're talking "Naked Horde Priest afk versus Alliance Rogue" level of pwn. And all that does is create bitterness.

Please note: Darwin's original review was removed due to what we consider to be trolling and erroneous information. He was a new recruit who has submitted what we consider quality reviews in the past. A full review will be posted later today. We apologize for the inconvenience.

As if I couldn't have been laughing hard enough as it was!

Most hilarious thread I've seen in a looooooooooong time.

This oughta earn a nice banning. If I ran the house.

We used to say, "let's play Atari," "Nintendo," or "Sega."
We don't play Microsoft and Sony. The Apocalypse!

New Score = 4.5/5

OMG, it's a conspiracy to silence those who are daring to tell "the truth".
