It's still good. Just the worst in the series in my opinion. It felt way too gimmicky and "Hey look guys, physics! Let's make the item blocks roll around everywhere instead of being stationary!" Then again SS is my favorite and I hate the coin mechanic.Gravijah said:DD gets more hate than it deserves. Love that game.
Double-Dash!! is the best fucking Mario Kart. >:|Billychu said:2. Double Dash greater than anything? Madness.
Edited. It's my least favorite Mario Kart but it's still decent.I AM JOHN! said:Double-Dash!! is the best fucking Mario Kart. >:|
Billychu said:1. I hate DKR. I always thought the handeling was awful, the courses sucked, and while having 3 vehicles was kind of cool the hovercraft was worthless (it made the bad handling even worse), and the flying felt out of place, probably to make sure it wasn't completely broken. I know that tons of people love the game and I'm in the majority, I just want to understand why people love it so much.

Me trying to tell you why DKR was a good racing game would be like you trying to tell me why Star Fox 64 is a great game. Both would be futile.Billychu said:1. I hate DKR.

I will admit that's one of my favorite tracks. I haven't played much of the Wii version so does it have more tracks like DK Mountain? I love how you're descending volcano and then just blast your way back up with a cannon. It's still bad ass to this day.Willy105 said:Also, it came with DK Mountain.

Double Dash is probably my 3rd favorite Mario Kart, but even then I think I enjoyed the Crash Bandicoot alternative more, if only for the sheer ridiculousness of it.I AM JOHN! said:Double-Dash!! is the best fucking Mario Kart. >:|
Will buy regardless but I really hope it has new/different tracks.Hero of Legend said:Source of the potential 3DS version leak:

goldenpp72 said:To my understanding it never even broke half a million between the ps3/360/pc versions, which are the only versions I care about personally, heh. It apparently did so bad they decided not to release dlc they had in the works or even completed.

Hero of Legend said:Where'd you hear this? And they did release Metal Sonic as DLC.
What about the Wii version? Hope none of this is from Chartz, as they've been known to be unreliable, and it's a strictly banned site, sourcing sales talk from them is a big no-no.
On my setup (wheel and racing chair) it is a blast to play.Lindsay said:Arcade games still exist?? This game feels so right played with a controller I dunno how well it'd work with a wheel. I'd still give it a go if I ever saw a unit in person! Sure hope they can make a true sequel and that it doesn't bomb this time -.-;

PC version has no online. You should still go for it though it's a fun game even when not playing online.$19.99 on Steam, although I have no idea what the PC version is like.
Ben2749 said:I'd kill for a sequel, but I'm afraid that the first game might have underperformed so much, that Sega/Sumo won't want to chance it.
If they had marketed the game better, it probably would have performed quite well. It is the 360/PS3/PC's answer to Mario Kart, and it's a damn good one at that (it's a lot better than Mario Kart Wii).

Yeah it's excellent.Jacobi said:That game is good? :O

Don't buy it for that price. Thing was less than that on launch day, I got mine for £10. Pick up a boxed copy.$19.99 on Steam, although I have no idea what the PC version is like.
Gravijah said:So, how is the Wii version compared to the console version? Better, worse... the same? Different?
Neuromancer said:^Actually I was playing with a buddy on Xbox Live Friday night, before we knew it 6 people joined in and we had a full room. I was really surprised but it was very cool.

Game is super sweet on PC. Has some stuttering issues during the menus on ATI cards, but that's it. You can get 60fps on the humblest of rigs during the gameplay. Turn off the dynamic lighting and you get prebaked shadows that look better and keep performance smooth.
Lack of online isn't so much of an issue because these games play better locally with your mates shoved up on the couch next to you.
Hmm maybe a lot of people got it for Christmas or something. Or maybe I was just lucky.Sega1991 said:Really, now? Whenever I've thought to try and play on Xbox Live in the last, say, six months or so, I haven't seen a single other soul online.
Kulock said:Nice, the game deserves more exposure. It's too bad they abandoned the console versions like they did, but considering how badly it tanked, I guess I don't totally blame them.
IrishNinja said:they abandoned it? how? shame if true, its a really fun game. cant wait till its on a steam sale.
IIRC the Wii version sold the most worldwide.Rush2thestart said:Didnt the Wii version sell well in Europe at least? I remember seeing it chart.
