Joke thread? There is no "kart racing" genre. There's Mario Kart and then there's ripoffs of Mario Kart.

Was CTR a good game? Yup. But it could be better than the best Mario Kart game and it will still never be anything more than a ripoff. A Fauxlex watch, a Soni tv, Levy jeans, Nicke shoes, a Polystation, a Vii. Just the Sonic and Sega All Star Racing of 2 generations ago.

Hey man, theres no shame in progress. Yes Nintendo might have made the first kart game ever (not even sure that's true), but for that brief moment Sony made it better. P.S. I love how this thread refuses to die. Awesome.

Progress would be making your own game, not ripping off someone else's ideas.  We're not talking about a genre like FPS or RTS. We're not even talking about a subgenre, we're talking about a specific game that is popular enough to warrant 3-4 ripoff games a generation.
