It's classical anyways, how cool are you, anyway?
Looks like each character gets their own kind of kart, Whacky Races style. Detail is superb.
Must see this running. Roll on the E3! Woo
I bloody hope so!
And hopefully there will be more than 4 maps this time...
You drove around this area with 3 ballons attached to the back of your kart and had opponents driving round. You had to hit them 3 times and pop the ballons and they were out.
That in, or something similar?

uhh...so it's a huge gameplay change!
Special weapons per character, as well as each characters unique driving ability, so you'll be switching whose going to be driving and whose going to be attacking a lot. It adds strategy, you'll want to get the best from both your racers.

I dont particularly like the GT series, its got nice graphics and lots of cars and a nice simulation feel... thats all.
And why does Lugei have a pink hearty car? In fact,

That's Peach's Kart, they have just switched so that Luigi is driving.
And the karts look cool, I like Bowser's one...

Go and toss over GT4. Oh and while you're at, tell me how it's actually any different from GT3, or in fact, the original game.
It looks nothing like Mario Kart 64!
ooo lets see, 2 people in each kart? Customised karts for each person? Special weapons for each character?
It looks, and will play, nothing like the previous versions.
Pikmin 2 looks good, I shall be getting it no matter what because the first is just genius. More pikmin, I guess that can be good and bad. Means more fiddleyness but then more variety. But the story does seem rather crap.
Just because I dont like *every* Ninty game out there, doesnt mean I suck.
And im not a PS2 fanboy, as there are shedloads of PS2 games I dont like.
