Rapidly becoming my favourite Gamecube game this. I know it has recieved a lot of stick, especially for the battle mode, but the single race experience is second to none.

I've been playing it with a bunch of my brother's mates for the past 2 hours and I'm getting a few mates over to play it in a moment.

Ah I love it so, a true Gamecube memory.

Mario Kart: Super Circuit > All

It's a shame that battel mode wasn't as great, as the actual racing is second to none.

I actually played it yesterday. :-)

That was 4 player battle with mates.

The graphics and frame rate are actually perfectly acceptable for a 4 player battle on the Block Fort, actually. I think visually it's still a fine game. There are a couple of frame rate issues on some courses, but they really don't make much of a difference.

I have played Mario Kart 64. Have you played it recently, the graphics and frame rate are appalling, especially on the Donkey Kong one. Still, a great game. Fantastic multiplayer. Though PD had the best multiplayer ever.

It is a great game. My only complaint is the lack of the hop.
