MK64 Gets yet another bad review from GS

Read

I always found it odd that the public seems to love this game and idolize it as one of the best racers ever... yet Gamespot gives it a 6.2?  This is definitely a time when people SHOULDN't listen to reviews

it was a classic game in my opinion, but i still recognize that it could use some improvements. i dont see myself downloading it, just for the fact that i dont need to play the game again like that, but there is a possibility that i could get it. GS does have some questionable review points, but i usually agree with them (although not entirely)

whoa....i'm away for a few days and this is the kind of stuff that crops up?? :P

the game is good, it is what it is - i mean this is getting outta hand - bashing old games. are the graphics on todays standards? no - you're a moron if you think it should be.

is mario kart for the DS a more improved version? yes...of course it is...you're a moron if you think it should be the other way around.

can't save ghost data? WTF???? did you bother to read the MANUAL?? it automatically saves this data.

$10 for a classic racer is still a good deal, i mean was anyone expecting a modern racer?? was anyone expecting  anything more than what the game was when it was released?

maybe there's actually alot of ppl that sing the 'oh i play these old games all the time' song and they are just liars...including GS...otherwise they'd know what to expect long beforehand.....

Just because the ghost feature isn't available you think is should get that low a rating, that's kind of harsh, i mean 6-8, i would have given it an 7.5 or something

Well I owe an apology for being an arse in my post above regarding the ghost save - I thought that because I saw saved data...it saved ghost info as well.

That's what I get I guess.

Sorry if I offened anyone (regarding ghost data).

I myslef could care less about ghost data, it's nice to have - but I don't miss it.

What does GS have against Mario Kart? It's one of the better multiplayer games out there.Mop_it_up

Just because a game was popular it doesn't mean it was good. ;)

I used to play that game all the time and I loved it, but I was younger and I didn't come to expect much from a video game like I do now. However, now that I look back I see that Mario Kart simply did not have a lot of content. We have to think about both single player and multiplayer here. Not much to do in single player, but in multiplayer someone always had a good time. However, even your multiplayer options were limited, and so you can't honestly say that it was the best racer ever, or even close.

Of course, those are just my opinions. ;)
