I pretty much agree with that. For 1-player alone it certainly isn't worth £30, even with the added challenge of TT ghosts, but if you intend to put multiplayer to good use it's essential.

My head isnt inflated, much.

I still think its only worth buying of you are going to play the game on multiplayer after finishing the cup modes.

If the thing stored the fact that you had unlocked a ghost car (which I DID find challenging) then I would recommend this as a one player game.

At first I hated it, then I loved it, now I love it in multiplayer and don't bother with single player as it's a bit crap.

What a rollercoaster ride!

What happened to the old "Take your take and enjoy it" policy?

I played through the whole game getting old on every mode FIRST time.

I had played the N64 version to death on single and multiplayer and found this very easy to complete. I played the game and unlocked everything in a single sitting.

Unlocking everything takes well over 2 hours, fool.

You have to get Gold on the three regular cups on all difficulties (50, 100, 150 and Mirror), plus the All-Cup-Tour twice to unlock everything, which in itself will take more than 2 hours, plus you're never going to get gold first time what with the cheating COM. You're looking at four hours to do it all, at least.

And even then, you're not going just abandon single-player. You have time-trials to improve on, and the cups are fun to play through once in a while.

Have to disagree, it's satisfying to play in single player once in a while, especially while you're still unlocking characters/levels/etc.
