Do we have to compare this to Mario Kart and bring about the wrath of fanboys? Can't this just be a good game on its own merits?

well, it is the only game that challenges MK in this genre (sega racing game really wasnt all that). Plus, it was asked in the video. 

I mean it as a general statement. Sure, they may be similar games in some ways, but they don't need to be competitors just because of that.
