For me the difference between Motorstrom and Mario Kart is this.
When i play mario kart i know it is all in good fun and don't take it seriously. I have had games that had to be paused becuase of laughter. I know the person that wins is the one that doesn't get hit buy the silly weapon on the last corner and have no problems with loosing. I have fun no mater what happnes
When I play Motorstorm i play to win. If someone takes me out I don't laught I swear revenge. I put everything into it. I despair in defeaft and revel in victory. i think this is hat the OP means by intense.
I know both type will appeal to different people but I actually like both.
