Okay,Mario Kartgamers. We’ve had a few days now to digestMario Kart Worldand all it has to offer. How are we feeling?
I love the game. I reviewed it witha high score, and I’ve been enjoying myself hopping on for some Free Roam or Knockout Tour whenever I have some free time. I think it’s a joy to play…only until it isn’t. And therein lies the rub with our old pal Mario and his karts. Those damn items.
I am SICK of Mega Mushroom. I’m sick of getting flattened by a giant Baby Peach as they monster truck my ass from behind and blow past me in the standings. Also, the frequency at which I am in first place (not very often) compared to how often I get hit by a Blue Shell immediately when I am in first place is astounding.
There’s also the classic Lightning which sucks all the joy out out of your life, shrinks you down, and stops all of your momentum, all while destroying whatever item you were saving. And then, of course, there’s Bullet Bill, the reward for being in last place. UGH.
And so I ask you, Destructoid, what’s the worst, most rage-inducing item to get trolled by inMario Kart? As I said, for me, it’s the Mega Mushroom. The newMKWitem turns characters gigantic and gives them a speed boost, allowing them to flatten anyone in their path. It’s infuriating.
