This is my favorite kart racer ever. The tracks are super fun with how they change in every lap, you always have opportunites to get extra boosts with tricks, the music is phenomenal. My biggest issues are that the roster is a little weak compared to the first game's spread of franchises, and I ran into a small amount of bugs that killed a race or GP for me sometimes. But the insane amount of single player stuff to do more than makes up for it for me. Grab this on PC if you can so you can get the MANY extra & Exclusive characters the console versions never got. Really hope we get a 3rd game that brings in stuff like Yakuza/Like A Dragon and Sakura Wars.

This is a must play kart racer especially if you dont have a Nintendo console as this is much better than the trash that comes out now such as disney speedstorm. Its also a massive step up from the last sonic kart racer as you can tell they really cared making this one.

For positives i think this game provides a good level of challenge for players whilst not feeling like the ai are not just rubber banding. It has a wide variety of characters from series we've not seen much recognition from in years such as nights into dreams and burning rangers. I also feel it has very tight controls and gives you a sense of going fast which in my opinion feels like its kinda been forgotten about in the newer kart racers we get. It also has a solid online which ive spent playing with friends with a wide variety of modes to keep you wanting to play. It also has some great maps in the game with some really creative ones using the transformed mechanic showing the wide improvement over the first game. Its definitely a game thats easy to learn but hard to master.

My only negatives about the game could be that there could of been more maps in the game and the single player could of been abit longer but those are just nitpicks and do not take away from the overall experience.

If you've been looking for a kart racer to play on xbox or playstation definitely pick it up even for the full price on the Microsoft store as i think theres plenty here to keep you busy. And its definitely worth it alot more over team sonic racing. Hope we get another kart racer like this in the future as it just wasnt the same with team sonic racing.

Fun, challenging, fast-paced and colorful! This game has many creative modes in the main career that will test your skill on wheels (and more) other than the usual grand prix and time attack. It's a difficult game if you go for full completion but it's sure worth it: addictive thanks to a great feel in driving, drifting and stuns; you transform into boat and plane so you need to adjust accordingly with different driving styles (can also drift while flying or as boat) which is a plus!

Lots of cool Sega inspired tracks and characters with punchy lines will bring nostalgia back! Great soundtrack too! All in all a great kart game with challenge for those who look for it and completionists, recommended: had plenty of fun with it!
