I dont' know why people defend the fact that the PS3 port of the Orange Box was a mess up. It's common knowledge.

Either way, if you don't own a 360, jut get it for PC, but by for the love of quality gaming don't buy it for the PS3 people.

Common knowledge? Thats why no one who owns the game ever had these massive problems that game reviewers say they had. Its also common knowledge that they wii is two GC's duct taped together. And wii Mario Kart looks worse then DD mario Kart.

You haven't even played it, have you? I played a lot of Mario Kart: DD as recently as 6 months ago and Mario Kart Wii looks a lot better, especially with the new maps. There's no question, and it's not even close.

There are also many other advantages -- true widescreen support, 12 players at a time on maps, you can race against computer opponents with 3 and 4 players locally, etc. The game is much more chaotic than previous Mario Kart games, primarily due to the fact that courses are harder and there are more players packed on them, but it's a great time.

Mario Kart Wii brings online competition to Mario Kart. People who are used to dominating are struggling because they have so much more to contend with. That was this main complaint by the guy who put this on the "most disappointing" list. But it clearly does not belong on that list as the game is freakin' awesome. It's easily the best game released this year so far on any platform.

I don't know about that but the game is a lot of fun. It does just enough and tweaks the formula just right. It doesn't stand out anywhere except for "fun factor", which is what's most important to an MK game anyway.

Personally, I've played some other games this year I like better than MK. I'm not slighting the game, though. It does what it should do and does it well (other than that stupid online system but even that isn't terrible for this game).
