"A new challenger is stepping up to try its hand at the combat racing genre, and that challenger is the new downloadable title from Digital Reality, SkyDrift. Many of us cut our teeth in this genre with Mario Kart and its many iterations. How does Skydrift hold up to the Mario Kart tried-and-true formula? Does Skydrift succeed when it takes that formula to the air with prop (propeller) planes?"- Jatosin
A.J. says: "As Sony's first system capable of downloading games, the PlayStation 3 sure had a phenomenal library. Here, I count down ten buried treasures that you may not have heard of but are worth playing before you put your PS3 on Craigslist."

Fans of the Mario Kart series are no doubt excited about the latest installment. But for those wanting more, here's a collection of indie alternatives.
A track editor would have been awesome in MK8, I'd have also settled for procedurally generated tracks that could be saved for future races.
Nice to see some alternatives for other platforms, but I've never played a Kart game that can match the feel of MK!
The nearest I've got is the recent Sonic titles, but they are not quite there (but fun) - and I'd love to see a Mario / Sonic Kart cross-over - if they could do it for the Olympics games, why not MK! As lonmg as it was made by the team responsible for MK8! :)
