As for the price...
This is the difference between Sega and Nintendo games
Weird. It's not discounted on Xbox for me.
Mario Kart World VS Sonic Racing Cross World
- Thread starter Fat Frog
- Start date

Not questioning about who's winning what but I find the Crossworld mechanic quite fascinating, reminds me of Out Run
I've seen a couple of gameplay videos and I found the game aggressive and brilliant, I think it's going to be enough different from Mario Kart to justify the "Why not both" Gif

I dont give a fuck if you consider it optional.
MK= 80$ for all the content at launch
SCW= 90$ for all the content at launch
This statement is a fact.

Annnddd? Do you know which one has more content? At $70 does it have more content? A lot more factors here.
Fat Frog
I advertised for Google Stadia
Obvious bad faith.
Standard edition is $70 vs $80.
We'll compare the standard+ DLC price later. (paid DLC are not on the market yet for Mario Kart)

Ah well, it's fine. I mean I have yet to finish any of the Yakuza games anyway. There's no rush.
Doesnt really matter. Im not paying 90$ to have all the launch content for any game.

Is it launch content? I thought it was being rolled out, or is that the free DLC?
So you're okay at $80 knowing you will have to pay more at a later date for DLC?
It doesnt matter to me which one ends up being more expensive. Im all for releasing dlc for a game im currently playing. But at launch i want all thr content that is there at launch, and not for 90$.
But if those things mattered to me, you're not making any sense either way. Nintendo doesnt do a lot of dlc. Sonic clearly had the intention of doing dlc packs frequently and they will as long as there are enough people playing it. So if that's your argument, you'd only be giving me more reasons to avoid sonic but like i said, that doesnt matter to me.
And dont think im praising MK even for a second. I wouldnt buy MK at 80$ either.

I think older gamers are looking at the open world from a completely different viewpoint. I bet gamers aged 8-18 that are socially adept and have plenty of friends and family are looking at the open world in a much more positive way (esp if they use the camera/chat feature)
Being able to go online with your friends/family and dick around in an open world, race and make your own fun is something no other MK would've be able to do before.

Didn't math it out, but I bet it still cost less than OG Mario Kart at launch when you factor inflation.
And the SNES sold 49M units. Sonic has a potential userbase AT LEAST 10x larger, with the cost of multiplying games being virtually zero.
I loved Transformed so I hope it's as good as that. I paid $6 for Transformed with all DLC on PC a few years ago. I'll likely do that again regardless if it's good, because cheaper is better! Maybe a bit higher than $6 though lmao.
Meanwhile Mario Kart World will keep me going for awhile. Time Trials are going to be 100+ hours of gameplay alone. People who say MKW is boring must've never touched Time Trials. They're exciting with the grind rails, wall rides and jump boosts. Simple, yet hard to pull off advanced stuff going on. Trying to get in the top is fun.
If I had to vote it would be MKW right now. If Crossworlds is close to transformed... Might have to change that choice. Common Sega, you have one job to be praised for years to come.

Sorry sir, I'll try to force my own opinion to match yours the next time I play a shitty game.

Kart Racers are all pretty similar in their gameplay, I'm just genuinely confused about how you can dislike the game if you're used to that genre

Many such cases
Fat Frog
I advertised for Google Stadia
Dude... So many awesome games at ridiculous price like $3 RGG Binary Domain, $30 Persona 3R, $30 Shadow Gen, $5 Valkyria Chronicles, $30 LAD Infinite Wealth.
Sometimes, you can also buy Sonic Transformed at 5 bucks with all the DLC...
Don't worry, Sonic Racing Crossworlds will be at reasonable price soon enough

Own and love MKW, and I have Sonic Racing preordered, I'm very much in the why not both camp.

Sonic really calling in SpongeBob & Ninja Turtles for Mario
I think it's personal with the Turtles
Ha ha good one.
Even a low effort game like 0 Hype Team Sonic Racing sold at 3,5 million units.
Imagine now a true full fledged racing games, with proper marketing, partnerships (Mac Laren, Subaru, Redbull...), guests (Miku, Minecraft, Bob) and the new popularity of Sonic. ($1 billion movies has been released after Team Sonic Racing).
The Deluxe edition preorders crushing the standard edition on the playstation charts is announcing new sales high for the franchise.
On top of that, if the game succeeds Sega claimed that they'll add content for years. (which means win win situation: More guests for the players like Atlus, Am2, Warners, Disney stars... Sega has a long history of Disney partnerships, especially Utsumi who helped creating Kingdom Hearts with Square.)
TSR sold 3,5 million units.
With Minecraft, Miku, Sonic Movies it's very realistic to expect minimum 5 million units.
Since Sega did an excellent job at promoting Crossworlds at SGF (reigniting the Sega Nintendo cold war on stage!!!), partnering with legendary Maclaren of the gold old days and keeping the pressure with the Esport World cup,
i think Sonic Crossworlds will be a massive success passing the 10 million units.

This is like the smash bros of kart racing! Looking way better than MKW too.
