Mario Kart World VS Sonic Racing Cross World

I'll play

  • Mario Kart World

  • Sonic Racing Cross World

  • Fuck Mario, fuck Sonic, fuck the planet

  • Why not both ? :ugly kid gif:

Results are only viewable after voting.
I like that there's strategy involved in CrossWorlds and it's hectic, but it's a tough game online. I'm consistently losing lol. Even then it's addicting. It makes me want to experiment with every attribute to see how it effects my games.

I don't have Mario Kart World, but I did play a bunch of 7 and 8. The wall riding looks like it added another level of strategy, but Nintendo forcing people to play intermission tracks kills the hectic fast paced action seen in previous versions. For that reason alone I think Crossworlds is probably the better game for me.

I haven't really played it on Series X ever, so maybe it has bad Framepacing or something?

if you have a VRR screen I'd turn on VRR, maybe that fixes it.

It was me, it clearly is in 60fps, haha.

I notice how in Transformed you CAN use the trigger to accelerate, but I couldn't find this option in the beta of Crossworlds. I definitely missed that.
 
I'm not sure what's with the big Sega vs. Nintendo thing one particular poster keep trying to push (as well as trying to pump up some very average preorder numbers as some kind of 'win') -- this game is also available on Switch, so who cares? Also, Mario Kart World will likely sell in the realm of 5-10x as many copies (at full price) than this will in its lifetime (including as its quickly discounted as soon as this Black Friday)

Rock n roll Sega, you mean 😁:


- Takashi Iizuka appears on stage.

- Pisses on Nintendo's mouth in front of millions of gamers.

- Leaves.

That's the Sega we want. 😎

I'm a Sega boy since the start, pawl 🤩😤.
Stadia was just an convenient way to play my beloved Sega preeeeecious games 😱👊🏻 (seriously Judgment was dope on Stadia 🤠. PS5 was too expensive and the PS4 version had a bit of lag due to low framerate)

It seems that Sony wants a share of the huge Mario/Kart Racer market:

Atm Astro kart is prob at development and If they make it with the same care of Astrobot It ll be huge.

Good! But i don't expect a new Astro Bot spin off before 2027-2028.
Will they manage the shift from platformer to Kart Racer?

I think it's smart for Sony or even Microsoft to promote a great kart racer on their platform.
(this market is HUGE)

I think they ( Team Asobi ) have the talent to pull a fun Kart game out their hats, with fun tracks, balanced gameplay and the ammount of customizable opitions for the bots It can be an HUGE sucess.

Make day one cross plataforma PC x Playstation and ll be a hit.

Modnation Racers was already a dud. Putting a toilet cleaner skin on it is not going to magically make it worth a damn.

Lol, Astrobot is way bigger than Modnation Race ever was and you dont need to be this triggered by the idea of another Kart Race game, you can always play Mário Kart, its not going anywhere.

Also, If they make a Race game with the same lvl of fun and care that Astrobot was made, they may even win some awards at the end of the year.

I played Sonic RCR demo and mostly it's an enjoyable game with very beautiful tracks
I am just not sure people will like it because it's a tough game with weird handling and
a lot of mechanics to learn

Don't worry for the people, it's already more popular than Team Sonic Racing (3.5 million units sold)

Except, Sonic Transformed hardcore fans, most gamers like it.
The open beta beta boosted the pre orders on the PS Store (#8 last week)
(currently #12)

Of course Sonic Team could implement cross platform match making, unlike Nintendo, Sega was kicked out of the console business a long long time ago.
If Sega wants to attract the Nintendo userbase they need to pay Nintendo a fee, same for the other platforms.
Sega does what Nintendon't.

Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Is Better Than Mario Kart World, But That Won't Change Anything

Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Is Better Than Mario Kart World, But That Won't Change Anything

"I'm actually more of a Mario Kart World defender than a detractor."






Many gamers think the same.

Kirby Air Rider, MK8, Sonic Crossworlds have a window...

I haven't played Mark Kart World (I don't even like MK that much) but after playing both beta tests I doubt the portal thing in CrossWorlds is really better than an interconnected explorable world.

If anything, the portal mechanic feels kind of just thrown in there, personally I would have kept it only for the last lap or under some other specific requirement to reach during the race.

At it is, the new Sonic game feels nice enough but ridiculously unambitious.

It's not about the portal.
Intermissions in MKW is boring, gamers don't want it and tried to skip it online. (Ninty didn't allow that with an update to force it)

Casual players will buy it like crazy but for a bunch of gamers, there is a void...

I think Sonic's strenght isn't portal but gadgets, there so many possibilities to counter powerful items.
