Having wondered about ECTS in doors, me and my mates saw the half life 2 stuff and was pretty annoyed and upset we came to london to see hardly anything, so we decided to make our way to the Nintendo bits outside.
Firstly i sat in the front left Kart, and things went wrong from here, the wavebird didn't work, so i pressed A to go.... nothing, pressing B, making me reverse made the pad wake up and off I go.
I was playing the Toads Turnpike type level, only to see massive Wigglers and item boxes whizzing about the track... I went to pick up the item... wavebird dies, i slam into a wall. My first impressions of this game were not good.
Coming last in that race, i decided to play again in another Kart, telling my friend that the kart with the broken wavebird was the front left one... so he goes in sits in it...
This time it was Luigi's Raceway and i prefered it a little bit, i managed to finish first and actually managed to raise a smile... but where has the magic gone? Was it because of the uncomfy go-karts and crappy screens? or is it because Mario Kart DD really isn't up to expectations.. i think it's both, but more of the latter.
I didn't like thinking about what character to use whebn racing, it annoyed me, i like Mario Kart to be a no brainer just race, fire weapons, end race.
The sliding ability, whilst alright to use, is no way as cool or nice to use the traditional hop and skid method, i want this back!!
Still, it looked ok, played ok and it was just ok for me.
Nothing great. Very dissapointed and gutted. Anyone else play this?
