Something tells me I'll be disappointed again when reviews come out. I know I shouldn't care, but it's stronger than myself lol. Mario Kart is one of the few games I buy regardless of what reviewers say though, I know I'll have fun with it.

Not that I'd ever listen to Gamespot reviews by the way.

By the way, am I the only one who wants a story mode for Mario Kart instead of the normal Grand Prix mode? Kinda like how Crash racing did, I loved those games as well. 

Story mode is a good idea! Although I'm not sure if I would want it replacing the traditional Grand Prix.

What I would really love is a spiritual sequel to Diddy Kong Racing with a similar adventure mode. How cool would that be?


Never played Diddy Kong Racing(I didn't even know N64 existed when I was a little kid!), but I've watched some reviews on it before. Seems like quite the wacky game, but so were the 90s I guess. 

In retrospect, you're right, Grand Prix Mode should be kept alongside a new story mode. I loved collecting 3 stars on all tracks in the Grand Prix. But I really really want to see a story mode, but they would've told us by now already if they were going to do this. Unless they want to really surprise us.

Also looking forward to see what new weapons will be in the game. And when they're going to troll us with a trailer that shows the blue shell. They've been trying to keep that one secret for some reason. :P

The majority of the people seem to think the game will score 90%+ which makes me believe this is the most hyped Mario Kart to date. Could be wrong though, wasn't around in the old days. 

If you like adventure modes in kart racers, I think you'd love Diddy Kong Racing. It's a big part of why I like it even more than Mario Kart 64.

Hey, what about a mission mode like the one in Mario Kart DS? That would be a welcome addition, also.
