I only played DKR a couple of time. I don't even know if I finished a full race, although I do remember seeing WizPig. With N64 games costing $60, and me having to use my own money for them, I was rather selective of which games I actually bought. I really only bought the biggest hits actually.

Just more proof on why gamespot should never be trusted with reviews. It seems to rate games almost entirely based on their hype sometimes.

Eh, kart racing was the best. Most of the plane levels sucked.

And everything about the hovercraft sucked (except for maybe a level or two)

Pipsy > all other DKR characters

Pipsy should have gotten her own spinoff series.

The hovercraft levels actually made big guys like Drumstick damn near unstoppable for once. Better turns + Better top speed = Ownage X2

yeah, cause Yoshi's gonna kill Mega Man!

That's one of those matches that never happened (in my mind).

What are you talking about? That was one of the greatest matches ever. Just look at the results!:

Mega Man 00.00% 0
Yoshi 100.00% 93114
TOTAL VOTES 93114

and Diddy Kong Racing was amazing! And it's okay to love Mario Kart and DKR; in fact, it's what you're supposed to do.

The hovercraft battle arena was awesome. No better feeling than hitting your opponent with a standard missle from the other side of the lake.

But see, I *don't* love MK64 that much...although now that I think about it a lot of the reason was due to the lack of Koopa Troopa. That turned me off right away...at least DKR had Tiptup.

Tai's Quarter-Ass Analysis

Match: Mega Man vs Mario Kart

Woo hoo! The match I was looking for has finally come! The series featuring the blue bomber himself, Megaman, vs one of the various spin-offs of the Mario series, Mario Kart. Man, a real barnbuner for whichever brackets has the losers! Neither series has been tested; Mega Man finallly gets an entry into a contest that involves games, and Mario Kart is a great spin-off series, it's latest game Mario Kart: DS being contested by MP:H for the most popular game on the DS. With Mega Man not having much games out lately, can it still take down Mario Kart with longevity? We'll see.

As for me; Mario Kart takes it with 53.35%.

Mario's not fun btw and only sells on nostalgia. I mean, you're just walking from one side of a level to the other at a tenth of Sonic's speed... -vego
