 worth buying - a solid game that will last November 10, 2008

I have two small sons and have trouble finding games that (1) they don't get overly frustrated by and (2) pass the "mom" standard. This game is a winner!
We already had a wheel from the sports package we purchased but the second wheel is necessary for the two player mode. You can play this game by yourself or with two players (in a spilt screen) against all the other racers. There are a few characters to chose from and different types of racing vehicles. My sons love the dirt bike option. There are several racing tracks to choose from with the ice track being the most difficult. Save yourself some tears and steer the little ones away from this option until they get used to the game. Our favorite was racing through the streets.
I will admit that I could not wait to get my own hands on a wheel to try a track when I saw my kids playing. It is a lot of fun and they have not gotten tired of it yet. It still remains a favorite in a rotation that includes Boom Blox - another great option. I also love that this game works for my kids (4-6) as well as their older cousins (7-10). Heck, even adults enjoy it!
It is no fun forking over money for a video game that becomes a flavor of the week (or even month). You will not have to worry about that with this game.

Great game, I played against people online. You just need to set up wi-fi at home.
My whole family was addicted to this games. This game enhance your family relationship.
Dad should buy this for their kids and have some family bonding moment.

Great Multiplayer or Online Racer November 4, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The best that this version of Mario Kart has going for it is the multiplayer or online play. Both are easy to pick up and play and are easy to get running. Online is really neat to see all of your opponents and where they are from. There's a few cheats lurking around though, so beware. Single player is a whole different issue. The gameplay is extremely unbalanced, leaving some races on the higher difficulties to pure luck. You may run a perfect race only to be slammed by multiple weapons on the last stretch and finish dead last. It WILL happen at least once. The lack of balance can be frustrating when trying to unlock one of the many hidden characters and karts in the game. Bikes are also superior to the karts, which makes them obsolete once the better bikes are unlocked. Overall the graphics are decent but not the best, the music is addictive, and most of the tracks themselves are fun to race. It's just a shame that the powerups completely overwhelm this game. Ditch the wii wheel. You'll play with better control with the wiimote and nunchuk.

when I purchased this game it was intended for my 5 year old son, after we recieved the product we both played the game. I don't know, but it brought out the kid in me. Me and my son have so much fun playing the different levels and different scenes. You really won't get bored.
