This dropped through my door this morning from MovieTyme.
I've put 3hrs 49 into it tonight, quite impressed with it but it does have some slight niggles.
Starting races is a bit of a pain in the arse as to get a fast start you have to use the touch screen, or blow into the microphone which is just plain stupid. For example just before you race you have a wheel / propellor / Fan on the touch screen dependant on your chosen vehicle then to get a fast start you have to spin or blow to push a meter up in order to get a fast start from the get-go. Why couldn't they just have left it alone!
Single Player is basically the same although when you find a key to say unlock a battle arena - it unlocks a track editor where you draw a basic track and race TT on it. I haven't come across any of the Battle Arena's yet and am not sure whether you can unlock them, I hope you can cause I love Icicle Pyramid. Taj has a few more challenges up his sleeve and he has lost his Indian voice.
There is no Coin Challenge I have come across yet, it replaces it with Balloon Bust or something where you fly through the level first person style on Taj's magic carpet on a pre-determined path trying to pop all the balloons, which was initially disappointing but becomes quite addictive, gotta bust-em all sort of thing!
Online is quite good and I played six player and got my ass handed to me, a few of the stradlers dropped (No change there then!) and it just seemed to carry on regardless which was great!
It's seems very slow compared to MK as well. It's also got a Track Editor and customisable cars etc. but I haven't dabbled yet.
