Crash Nitro Kart

"Wow, Above Average"

Crash nitro kart is a sequel to my most played game ever and i think that it is almost as good as the original game crash team racing. anybody who likes mario kart should find this game alot better though.

Graphics

the graphics in this game are pretty good they seem alot different than the original though, this game has cartoony graphics that look great, there are cutscenes that also look very good, the graphics on this game are still by no means the best graphics i have ever seen, the backrounds may have looked real if the colours weren't so bright, i am not complaing but that is the truth.

Gameplay

The only real reason that this game was made is for the gameplay, the story is not very well done, you basically just have to save the world, but the racing is extremly of fun( for a couple of hours) the game only takes a couple of hours to beat, although it is very fun, and there are alot of racing techiniques to master, there are alot of weapons you can pick up during a arace which can help alot of people who really have no skill at racing at all( *coughs* everyone that isn't me*end cough*). if you are like me you may have liked the ability to turn thjose stupid powers off, it is like one moment you are way ahead thaen you get shot with a missile, then you finally get going again and get shot with another missile, then you are in last.

Sound

the sound in this game sounds good but is reppetive, i know this because you are racing with the girl, you are in first place, and all of the sudden for no reason she will say No peeking yet, what the hell is that supposed to mean, it gets me laughing. they repeat these stupid saying all of the time, another guy says I am going to pass you.. NOT. it is just wierd.

Feel

This game has a huge different in feel from the original, it just doesn't feel like a crash game, maybe that is because of the different developer, maybe not, but i am scared that this will be the only crash game not become a greatist hit.

I strongly recomend that you rent this game before you buy it. because some of you will nbot be pleased, but if you love crash then you will know that this game is a classic.
