Karts are quicker in a straight line.. .. .. bikes have better acceleration.


Think the difference between Bowser and dry bones in MKDS .. .. both have their strengths if you know how to exploit them.

I'm a bit mad when it comes to Mario Kart-I kinda go loopy with laughter-is that normal?

Bikes definitely seem my style, so that's good that they're not leagues below karts.

What they lack in breaking power,they gain in durability and usage.
So both the karts and Bikes are equal in pros and cons.

From what I've read karts are easier to get boosts around corner. They're easier to control. With bikes you can do a wheelie and get boosts on straight aways.

I'll be playing the thing to death before GTA4 comes out, but I'll also be nitpicking.

better than ds easily, but im not to keen on the steering being nurfed. i mean like you have to skid (unless in auto) im used to it now and really good at it, i just dont find it as good.

other than that brillian game, few minor annoyances (no online grand prix isnt one) i hate multiplayer grand prix's

On to Mirrior Mode, but not sure if I can be bothered. It's going to be very very very very stressful...

You've got to unloch Mii outfits first (there are two in the game). I don't know how exactly to unlock them, but you can check the guide on IGN.com. I already have my Mii unlocked but prefer not to play with it because it has an annoying voice.
