I was thinking about this during and after a shoutbox conversation on the topic. Which Mario Kart game is your favourite? Why?
While it was difficult for me to choose before, after the release of Mario Kart 7, I've decided that it is my favourite. It's gliding and underwater mechanics are great additions to the series, and the fact that it's portable is a huge plus. Initially, I was disappointed that there was no VS. mode, but I quickly forgave the game for its fantastic online. Gyroscope controls work great, and although they take getting used to, doing well with them is extremely satisfying. One of the complaints I do have though is the bad roster, with the removal of spin-off staples, such as Waluigi, and the addition of several stupid characters, like Wiggler and the Honey Queen (WTF!?).
Anyway, I do love the tracks, music and items in Mario Kart 7, and even though it's somewhat easy (three stars in all cups in one week ), I'm still playing it all the time.
While we're on the topic, feel free to discuss your least favourite of the series. Mine's Mario Kart 64.
