GB: "If you are a fan of arcade racers and looking to get a new game that doesn’t break the bank, Skydrift might just be a game worth looking into. Priced at $15 with game play reminiscent of Wipeout, Skydrift takes the arcade racing genre into a territory few have dared tread: aerial racing. Flying in under the media radar, this game is surprisingly fun. Certainly if this game was released a decade ago it would have become a classic to which we would compare other arcade racers to today."
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."
Hardcore Gamer: Kalypso has put out a ton of stuff on PC, and now Green Man Gaming has a 24 hour sale on their catalog.
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! :)
I know what you mean. MK will always remain the basis for comparison. I did really enjoy Diddy Kong Racing back in the day, though.
