I also got this one for my birthday. Its pretty nice... just like the one on nintendo 64, but with a few new surprises.

Well this game is pretty much the same as the nintendo 64 version. There are a few new characters and you have to unlock some like Drumstick the rooster (my favorite) All the people have like mini voices now like all cute and pipsy. The genie Taj sounds like a hippy or some guy on drugs, but its alright. You can make your own tracks now and stuff to your vehicles, and change the color of your vehicles. Also you can always change your character in season. It also has Wi-fi which makes the game more fun. Still the same old bosses and tracks, but this game is a classic. Worth playing and has a fun story with Wizpig and all. Overall, I give this game a thumbs up, but I don't suggest you get it if you didn't like the nintendo 64 one, or racing games.
