 The PS3 doesn't have any entries into the top 10 and that clearly shows how it is lagging behind in overall console sales. The 360 reigns supreme which is what I expected because we all know that Wii… More

All of that is about to change, and the better news stems from the fact that the game disc may feature hidden content.  The latest MK Wii tourney features a new stage taken directly from Mario Galaxy. The map, Gala… More |

So Mario Kart came out about a week ago and of course was over shadowed by GTA4. However I have enjoyed playing it immensely and beating Dyzz online was a nice bonus.  The game plays pretty well, though there are a few bugs I wish they would fix. Like in short handed race mode when 3rd or 4th place doesn't get last place items, just items 3rd or 4th would get in a 12 man race, for instance. With that being said it is still a blast. Gametrailers takes a look at top 10 Mari… More

 Is Grand Theft Auto 4 the perfect game? Well maybe, maybe not. But IGN did give it a 10/10, and only two other titles in 10 years have achieved this: Soul Calibur on the Dreamcast and Ocarina of Time on N64. Also make sure you stay tuned to our GTA retrospective as later on today we will feature GTA 4 in anticipation of tomorrow's release. I will toss in about everything you co… More

I told them I was going to wait a week while I practiced the courses. I didn't want to play online immediately and have about 25 "noob losses." Well, after three days with the game, and hours of frustration unlocking the remainder of the courses, karts and characters (seriously, we're entering "Battletoads" toughness), I tried online play. After about 30 minutes, I was disconnected. But I

You must have a mushroom to do it. Powersliding turbos will not work. I jumped out of my seat when I did it; I couldn't believe it. This just happened about 30 seconds ago, so I'm going to try to get the replay up as soon as possible to share. Update: Here's the video. Also, I just saw a different video that showed someone using a red mini turbo to dodge a blue shell. However, the video quality was crappy, so I'm still not sold. Updated 12:29 p.m. … More

I'm about halfway through the modes, so my hope is to get it done by late this afternoon. Sadly, I have to stop playing for a couple hours to upload "Super Smash Bros. Brawl" tournament videos. = = = I believe it was IGN that said that some of the regular modes can be brutal. I got a chance to play several 100cc Grand Prix cups, and they were correct. This is 100cc! This isn't even the main course (150cc). How brutal can it be? As I mentioned last … More

Yeah, I did say on my Instant Messaging prompter earlier tonight that I wasn't going to check my computer, but I'm taking a quick break from playing Mario Kart Wii. That's right. I was able to get the game today, and I've been playing it for a few hours now. I'm taking a break just to share some quick thoughts. I'll go into a deeper thought Friday and throughout the next few weeks. * -- No snaking? That's fine. Nintendo might have taken out the one thing that separated the elite from the aver… More

I want to thank the Smash community, sort of. I have said in the past that part of me believes that the features for MK Wii has made the game a possible "Brawl vs. Melee, Part Deux." But with all of the insane debates and heated discussion on various Smash sites about what game is … More

 IGN published their Mario Kart Wii review over the weekend. Here is another look at it in case you missed it. Should be a solid game.I was hoping to have a look at Metal Gear Online for you guys today but it has been postponed. Konami is having server/network issues and wasn't able to keep up with the demand. They will have an announcement up tonight on when it should be read… More

IGN has one of the first Nintendo Wii Mario Kart reviews that I have seen online. This is "USA" based, as many of the others were based on European, or Japanese variations. We have covered this is various forms from a overview of every single track, to complaints about the Wii wheel. Between Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess, Super Smash Brawl, Mario Kart etc., I often wonder if Nintendo is capable of producing quality third party titles because at this point is doesn't seem so. M… More

So therefore, I just took what they wrote as is, trying to find any scent of Onion-like sarcasm. The Retronauts wrote an article detailing what they thought was the good and bad about the Mario Kart series. It starts off well because their "good" section is good. It's the "bad" section that makes me shake my head.  Two points have drawn my ire. * -- Rubberband A.I.:… More

Items in Mario Kart will matter now more than ever, and most of the videos I've seen (including the epic 2-hour one) doesn't do them all justice. So grab your favorite soft drink (pop, carbonated bev, soda) and get comfortable. Mushroom: It gives you a brief turbo boost. In past M.K. games, I wondered how great it was, since everyone could snake and … More

Yes, the person beat his or her time trial ghost by a couple seconds. However, I think that was more a product of the course rather than the person's ability. I've watched a few M.K. Wii matches online, and the trick boosting, where you perform an aerial off a quarterpipe to get a turbo boost, is almost laughable.&nb… More

Okay, I don't expect everyone to watch all of this. Yes there is 2 hours of footage here and no I haven't watched it all myself. However there very well could be some hardcore kart players up in here who want to see it, and who am I to deny them? This was posted over at wiinintendo.net thanks to those amazing Europeans who got the game before us here in the states. The gentlemen also gives a mini review of the game and has a ton of flickr screen shots up. This is all… More
