One game at a time
A lot of news takes place in a week: Starcraft 2, the Square Enix party (FFCC trailer via FFCC-news, click to play), and other random crap. In order to stay up-to-date with it all while having a life slacking off I’m going to scatter my impressions of the many recent PC demos I’ve been playing on a daily basis. One game a day.
…
Starting with the recent localization of Korean MMO Mario Kart rip-off KartRider. That pretty much summarizes the whole game right there. If you haven’t played Mario kart yet…then I’m sorry, you’re on the wrong webpage. Let me redirect you.
First, I have to be honest. I haven’t played more than 2 hours of this game. I found it really boring and the power sliding broken. Not in a good way, but in a “Why do I have no control?” kind of way. Of course people argued with me saying I had to play it more to enjoy it(ie: earn credits and buy a better cart), but why waste time earning my fun? This game sounds like another Nexon MMO I once heard of. Yes, Maple story. I have yet to play it but I kept hearing how pointless and boring it was. Hmm… sounds familiar. Let me put it this way; racing games have come a long long way over the years, I consider them the most “advanced” genre in all of gaming. So in my opinion, don’t bother wasting your time with KartRider. There are much better racing games to waste time on.
