david.dakota Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 @yesteryeargames from what's been said, Mario Part 7 only enables you to have only one race condition; eg you all race as Mario or the only item that is given is a banana. You can't select multiple conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamishmash Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 God it took them long enough to make a level based on the underground bits in Mario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Dem0- Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 famitsu gave it 37/40 (10,9,9,9) heres what they said: "The game's made so you're always able to stage a comeback, making it approachable and enjoyable for anyone. Competing for time is also exciting, and there's more than enough room for hardcore play here. The Community feature makes netplay a lot more accessible than before, and finding opponents via Street Pass is also impressive. It's really exciting to think how the community's going to unfold. There are a lot of changes here, but play it and it's definitely still Mario Kart. That goes to show how complete a game it's become. It's accessible enough that even new players can enjoy it, and when you get into it, you really get into it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzybee Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 A bit worrying about always able to stage a comeback. My biggest fears with this game is the power of the fire flower and the luck 7 items, let's hope it means in the typical mario kart way as I have insanely high hopes for this game!

peterl0 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Eurogamers review is up. 8/10 Not bad. Basically they say that the additions that have been made are slight but generally improve the game (with the exception of the slow underwater sections - no surprise really). One good thing is that they say courses are narrower and a bit tighter, which is always good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesteryeargames Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Eurogamer have no friends, like edge multiplayer alone is worth 10/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Dem0- Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 from what ive seen on MK7, it does look like that could be the case, after SS this has been my most anticipated GOTY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debug Mode Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Only just heard about the community feature in Mario Kart 7... fuuuuck that sounds good! I doubt I'll be as successful with the wins than I was at N-E meet 2010 D= but looking forward to an N-E community to join on there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh64 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I just took a quick gander at the character list and there's no Birdo OR Diddy Kong who were my main characters on Mario Kart Wii. And there's no way I'm being that bee. It still makes me sick that out of the huge Mario universe, that random Bee from Galaxy gets in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Diddy Kong, Birdo OR Waluigi seems seems outdated and reactionary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a no brainer. Despite what Reggie says, Nintendo must surely realise that DLC in Mario Kart would sell like crazy. For the record, I don't have a hat.

Hero-of-Time Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I was gonna preorder this online, but what with the strikes happening this week i'm a little afraid that it may get held up in the post. Guess I will just have to pick it up instore on Friday. You fail to mention that The Guardian state rubber banding AI is gone. Best Mario Kart ever.

or else you will DIE Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 what's rubber banding AI? does this mean it's nothing at all like MKWii? please tell me it's nothing at all like MKWii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the new characters just seem so weird/obscure. Metal Mario, the bee and Wiggler?! What were they thinking. Other than that minor set back though, I really can't wait. Reviews seem incredibly positive so far and I get paid this Friday so I'll be waiting at the nearest available shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Dem0- Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 i preordered this over a month ago, even though i didnt like MKWii, i still had a blast but this sounds like the best multiplayer game till the next smash/kart IMO. ive been trying to get as much of my courseworks done so that i can at least have a week of uniterrupted gameplay. ive been so hyped for this, i mean SO HYPED! Wednesday can't come soon enough.......i mean friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolness Bears Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 This looks so solid, I already have an erection and I think it will be permanent upon release. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzybee Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 But has it? I really don't trust the guardian on this matter. I would be gobsmacked that it's still there. Lately I've bought mario 3D, Zelda and Uncharted 3 - those are 3 unique, beautiful, stunning games.... But I just know Mario kart will be my game of the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamishmash Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hey guys, I (and I imagine many people) won't be getting this game until Chirstmas, but as we don't know how many people fit in a community, I'm worried that'll mean the late comings are kicked out of any N-Europe community. It'll probably be 12, or whatever the maximum number of racers is. I just wanna make sure we all have people to play with. I don't want communities to become really exclusive.

The Peeps Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I'll play with you Hamish ;P If we have loads of people we can always split up into two groups of 7 or something and switch over if people want to mix? I'm sure something will get worked out if we have more players than spaces :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
