[SparksterMeta0]

Yeah i never got better than 5th in mk7 gaf races, but i didnt get into them until 2 months ago or so. in mk8 I am beating the gaf lobbies majority of the races x.x idk what im doing thats so special. I think its just severe luck!

 

[CrimsonCommie]

Nothing but coins while I was in first but still won!

 

[InsaneZero]

Playing in that GAF vs GAF tourney, Red team really needs to get its act together

I mean, it was 1 vs 4 and I still came in first!

 

[Doorman]

Alright, I think I'm demoralized enough for one night. Good races GAF.

 

[ffdgh]

Blued right at the end. Meh.

 

[SM239]

Get bananas and coins in 8th. Get a crazy 8 in 3rd. WTF items

I got coins in 7th but got a golden mushroom later and boosted into 5th.

 

[NeoZylom]

Wow. That was intense!

Also, I wish I could save some kart configs Always forget what wheels I use lol.

 

[LinkToTheFuture]

Finally more ppl voting for volcano *o*

A lot of the guys setting WRs right now in MK8 set WRs in MK7 too, though. So you know what that implies... ;P

 

[Gattuso]

who got hit by my red shell behind me?

 

[Kinsei]

Anyone else feel that the staff ghosts are way too easy? With the exception of Bone Dry Dunes, I beat them all on my first or second try. They really should have brought back expert ghosts.

Hey now, going by NWR's video they look really hard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQRHbaZ10TQ

Spoiler

That staff ghost is blatantly sandbagging.

This. Half of them you don't even need use mushrooms to beat. I guess they thought we could just download difficult ghosts so there was no point.

It probably wouldn't be too bad if it would have a selection of downloaded ghosts ready and waiting like MK7 did.

 

[kuppy]

So who is in the GAF lobby, planing to keep playing for a while and would be okay with accepting a friend request somewhat quick?

Yeah. When I first started them earlier today I beat one and totally forgot I even had the triple mushrooms, lol.

 

[Lucentto]

I love this game, but fuck this game. #mariokartsalt

 

[mmxzero]

that come from behind victory! Woo!

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Seriously?!
I was right there in 1st and got two boomerangs and fell in 3rd!

 

[The12thGripper]

 

[NeoZylom]

Omg. That red shell right at the end

 

[masud]

Lol I come home and My 8 month pregnant wife is playing online and screaming at the TV...

Mario Kart 8 |OT2| Hopping is the new snaking.

 

[Teknoman]

Awww yeah Larry time!

 

[Vanillalite]

Mario Kart 8 |OT2| Cloudtop Cruise is GOAT

Mario Kart in a nutshell.

 

[lt519]

Seriously this games attention to detail is magical. Watch Yoshi's eyes, then watch him cower in fear. Sorry for the crappy GIF though, I suck at making them.

Original youtube if someone wants to make a better one, pretty funny expression:

First place holding Triple Red Shells sucks. Literally says, "barring Boomerang Lightning or Blue Shell you can't pass harhar."

How does that even happen. Like Triple Reds are already the best item so how does one get them in 1st.

 

[PreyingShark]

Do that with this video linked at the top: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5xy6kr7kRc

Most hoptastic WR yet I think.

 

[hughesta]

Apparently the Club Nintendo code included with my copy of MK8 has already been registered.

:c

Need a win before I call it quits.

I don't think it's possible in first, but it happens in second so something like the first player screwing up on the course/getting blue shelled could make this happen. And yea it sucks, even if the guy in second has it and refuses to use them until later while you're in third.

 

[Lucentto]

I just got a red shell when I was leading in first. What.

 

[Gattuso]

good thing I was a bullet during that lightning and got 3 mushrooms right afterwards

 

[Kinsei]

Banking a green shell off a wall in order to hit someone who is trailing a banana or green shell behind them feels good GAF. It feels damn good.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Man. rainbow Road 8 is not my strong suit.

 

[Speedwagon]

Holy shit. LOL.

 

[Tripon]

Shit is deep.

 

[NewVegasDog]

I just got a red shell when I was leading in first. What.

That's pretty much common in all the Mario kart games. I remember getting red shells in 1st place since the one on n64.

 

[Azuran]

I hate school for getting in the way of important aspects of my life such as playing Mario Kart. How dare my prof give me a test tonight!

 

[SparksterMeta0]

But who won?
