Forums - Nintendo - Mario Kart 8: 60 FPS gameplay, looks awesome

this track looks a bit plain most of the time, they could have done better there

by the way, do I see "hardcore" gamers critizising a casual here?

Thanks for reminding me of those DVDs that came with German video game magazines. Gosh, they sucked so hard at Mario Kart.

What do you find to be the hardest game to watch someone suck at?

Recent experiences lead me to conclude that you have not truly suffered until you've watched someone who has no clue what they're doing playing Pikmin.



This is impossible. This must be playing on a PC or something. Everyone knows that only the PS4 is capable of true next gen beauty.

You should make the thread title "Mario Kart 8 Owns GamesCom's Next-Gen Racing Genre "

just to spite ethomaz..

It's honestly scary how real that looks. And it's going to be scary seeing how real 3D Mario looks. To be honest, it looks better than X to me lol.

No particle effects? No motion-capture? No ray tracing? Please, this can't be next-gen. I don't even believe it's in HD; if it was, it wouldn't have all those bothersome colors. Get with the times, Nintendo.



In the top-left corner of the video you can see someone else failing too ;D

It is Pikmin. My nephew's favorite series. The problem with those games (particularly Pikmin 2) is that the player doesn't get penalized much. You can play really, really, really awful and still keep going without getting frustrated and giving up. At least now that he is older he has grasped most of the mechanics, so his play has become bearable.

Yeah, that's a big problem. Heck, I can enjoy watching people suck at certain games, and not in a masochistic way -- it's because I can watch someone make mistakes in Monster Hunter or a Souls game and know they'll learn from it. I can laugh and say, "He'll never try that again!" With Pikmin, I'm equally frustrated with the player for being lousy and with the game for not making the player aware of how bad he is, of what he's doing wrong.

I can even watch someone play through Zelda poorly, and that's my favorite series. Even the games that aren't necessarily punishing do at the very least force you to learn the proper way to play the game.



Love the graphics, really going out for this game! that guy...... Never played a Mario kart game..... At least i hope not O.o
