In what way is it better than modnation?


I enjoyed modnation racers a lot. Very underrated game. Mariokart might be better in terms of "brand value".



Around the Network

somewhere between 85-90, maybe more. Probably 87/100.

In what sentence in the OP is Modnation even mentioned?

It wasnt a reply to OP, it was a question to those who think it will score the same as or higher than what modnation got (82). I want to know why they think that.



My optimistic self says 90+, but the history tells us that these games are not rated that high, so I think 85.

The game looks amazing, and plays like a dream. Based on the series' pedigree and previous scores, I'm going to guess 90.



Exactly 93%.

Then there's always that one website that tries to be the "hard to impress" type and rates it a 7 or some crap.

Well, I can't speak for or against Modnation because I've never played it, but Mario Kart as a brand carries more weight than Modnation. It has a tight gameplay & good online functionality. Its also a well-designed game, with no excessive load-times or distracting graphical glitches. Each game is typically very consistent and just fun to pick up and play, so I don't see why MK8 couldn't reach 82+, especially since the series has a history of reaching that and higher.



90% or higher. From what I've heard, snaking is back in this one (from MK DS, my favorite in the series) if any of you can confirm this to be true, that'd be excellent.



7/10

The Pros -
