Well, Mario Kart for sure although Rare's effort was really good.
But without doubt MK is the king.

Mario Kart, It's controllers are just that bit tighter, although Diddy does have more tracks it's multiplayer ranges from sweet to suckage.

I never liked DKR, the control wasn't as good as MK64..
Plus I couldn't play as Peach in DKR.. ;)

Even tho MarioKart was extremely fun, Diddy Kong Racing gets my vote. So on a scale from 1-10 DKR would get a 9.9 and MK a 9.8.
Diddy Kong has TipTup!
The tracks are bigger and more colorful
You can fly a plane
TipTup!
The game never seems to end with all the trophies and balloons and time trial stuff
The 4player collect-and-steal worlds are l33t
The only thing I don't like is you couldn't play with 4 people... or could you?
Anyhoo... it's a close one, but I like DKR more.
Oh, did I mention TipTup?

Yeah you could play DKR with 4 people, I remember it all too well. It sucked like anything, cos the screen was too small (you try flying a damned plane in 1/4 of a 14" tv :p). Mariokart just has the edge, even though I really dislike that game too. The controls are that much tighter, and the Mario characters have gotta mean something. As great as Conker and TupTup are, they're not a match for Yoshi and Toad :D

mk but only just. you just cant beat its 4p battle

i know how this all got started. but i gotta say DKR (again) im with Redah. YOU CAN FLY. plus it has the adventrue mode. although nothing beats Rainbow Road in MK

DKR. The single player just blow MK out of the water. It was challenging, fun, and long. Just when you thought you'd finished it, there was more. I was pissed off coz I thought I had it finished after about a week and a 1/2, but then you get the extra lobby, then you have to play it again in reverse (with harder coin placement), then you have to earn TT (Redah: TipTup? where the hell did you get that from?). Anyway, DKR rules.

TipTup is the little turtle guy :D
Raging Fuel
April 27th, 2002, 12:19
Oh that's right. I thought he was going on about TT :). Well anyway, what was so good about TipTup? Pipsy kicked his ass :P (at least I think that was her name). Well expect for hovercraft, she sucked at that.

Yes, because that would make so much sense in Mario KART.. :P

ok smartty :!!!: we were talking about why the game was better. oh yah and pippsy RULES ALL
Jaz

But.. DKR multiplayer sucked! :P

what are you talking about. launching rockets at people and whatnot was GREAT. in Dkr you got up to 10 missles and in MK you only got 3 red shells or the blue shell (which did rock)

MK multi is unbalanced, getting the three reds always means that u get 1-3 hits. Always. It puts the star to shame.

No, you can usually stop it. Once you've played multiplayer MK for marathon sessions, you learn a few tricks. :)

I wouldn't say always. Normally you have avoid it by just holding something out the back.
Macca
April 28th, 2002, 09:25
its a little thing called skill :P , once you've played the game enough you pick up ways to avoid them
Tri-Force
April 28th, 2002, 09:28
i've even learned a litte way to avoid the blue guy.
Jaz
April 28th, 2002, 14:48
Mario Kart is great because anyone can pick up and play it, but you can also tell the more experienced players, like the ones who powerslide, the ones who never fire a green shell forward, and the ones who never ever select Toad as their character. ;)

yoshi all the way! :D

of course. why do you think she gets kidnapped so easily?
why do think she screams (in pain or in pleasure? come on. :sleepy: ) within the depths of the castle?
why do you think she tried to make a fool out of mario in SMB3 ("but our princess is in another castle")?
why do you think her face remains happy when bowser does the body press on her in SSBM?
because she's cheating on mario, that's why!

She's mine. ;)
Anyway, look at the poll. MK64 owns. ;)
Tri-Force
April 28th, 2002, 22:48
MK is up by one. and you can also tell a DKR player by the way they hit the speed stripes and use their ballons. and everyone knows not to toss a green shell forward in MK. i hope
Macca
April 29th, 2002, 13:59
Green shells backwards or in the gba version, drop a red shell behind you when you are in the lead :D
Tri-Force
April 29th, 2002, 22:10
No no no. Green shells off the side wall so they rattle back and forth in a tight spot when you're in the lead. do i right on a turn and they'll never see it coming. and when you get a bunch of banannas toss most behind you and leave one on a turn. you gotta watch how they take their turns though and leave it in the right spot.
Harteex
April 29th, 2002, 22:22
Anyway... MK 0wnz y00
Tri-Force
April 29th, 2002, 22:24
not quite the poll is fixed.
Jaz

Nothing fixed about the poll.
And Mario Kart still leads.. :)

if u have skill with the red shells, u can avoid the item in the back.
blizz
April 30th, 2002, 04:03
it's called attacking them from the front ;)
I have a habit of firing green shells straight at a wall infront of me and then quickly dodging when peeps are behind me ;)

I just look at others screens and line myself up for a backwards green shot :)
Macca
April 30th, 2002, 14:09
screen cheating is cool, but you can't do it on gba :P
Jaz
April 30th, 2002, 14:25
Anyways, I'll end the poll on May 3rd, so we can see who the winner is.
Besides, no-one will care by then. ;)
Tri-Force
April 30th, 2002, 22:15
true. both are great games.
Anchel
April 30th, 2002, 22:56

I would LOVE to try it

The poll has ended.

Tri-Force
May 5th, 2002, 21:44

MarioKart definately, mainly because I couldn't play as Yoshi
