    I must've been asleep when this game became one of the best racing games in the last few years. I mean, Mario Kart Wii online play sucked. Nintendo probably improved everything by now, but I will always hate the lag.

    I'm trying to hype myself up before I purchase this, but my best memories of Mario Kart come from the Super Nintendo and the N64. I still hate the Wii version. And parts of the Gamecube edition. Ugh.

      Editing … Possibly the most fun I've ever had with the series was playing MK Wii split screen with my nephew against random people online. I worry that nothing will ever top that, so I might as well not even bother trying MK8. Playing MK7 on 3DS didn't really increase my confidence. The single player structure (or lack thereof) of MK games make the experience feel barren and dated.

      Editing … Yeah, MK Wii split screen felt like the last of a generation. Then it was all about high-end graphics? I mean, I'm still kind of pissed that I don't get the giant Cheep Cheep balloon that gives me the trophy. Err...RIP Cheep Cheep.

      Editing … I actually thought that the Gamecube version was cool for a while. Then I thought about how much it really accomplished. Yeah, I get an extra partner to ride with me? I mean, it didn't really change that much. I like the controller though.

      Editing … If the partner system was such a good idea, you would think it would be brought back in later games. After all, the bikes from MK Wii were brought back. It's one of the only things that make me at least somewhat interested in getting 8. I kinda wish the game didn't have anti grav tracks, because the bikes seem less like bikes. I mean, can you still pop a wheelie while upside down? How does that even work? =P

      Editing … I own the game now btw. It's currently downloading. I saw someone offer the code for $35 so I took him up on it.

      Editing … It's a good game, except it has auto-steer on by default. I had to turn it off in the pause menu. Aside from that, it's just as unfair as Mario Kart Wii. Freaking weapons...
