Title: Great concept ruined!
Review: Luckily, I rented this before deciding whether or not to buy. And boy am I lucky that I tried it before dropping $50 for it.Well, everyone knows about the concept and cool graphics and all. The game suffered no slow down even with multi-tap on. But after playing for a short time, I realized how bad this game is. The controls are difficult, the power-ups are useless in a race (you need to use shortcuts to win). And worse, the carts move way too slow. The fun of any cart racing (ala Mario Kart or even Rumble Racing ) is that it's fast. This game felt like I was moving at snail pace.I wish that they would put Mario Kart on PS2 (though never happen) or someone come up with a true kart game. The closest out right now is Rumble Racing which is definitely worth the look if you're looking for cart racing type game.
