Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Diddy Kong Racing is almost too good to be true. It is an exquisitely animated, color-rich racing game that bubbles over with character and charm. A triumph. »
« "Mario Kart's" (at least the original one, anyway) biggest strength was its multiplayer mode and of course DKR does what Nintendo did but better. »
« Take Diddy for a test drive and you'll be hooked. It's the smoothest ride you can buy this holiday season. »
« All I can say is that this is what Mario Kart 64 should have been. Awesome. »
« Beneath the day-glo grass and cuddly-wuddly wittle characters beats the brutal, steroid-pumped heart of a sadistic beast who eats raw liver and stamps on puppies for laughs. Everything about Diddy Kong Racing is perfect. »
« The sound in DKR is fantastic. The characters make noises, the cars make noises, and the music fits in perfectly. »
« There are so many subtle touches that only become apparent after many hours of play and the cunningly designed levels match anything Nintendo can offer. »
« DKR looks better than "Mario Kart," but it's a little too cutesy for us. [Jan 2004, p.189] »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Phenomenal game. It has great level design, and extremely enjoyable charecters and settings. The music in this game is the cherry on top. It's not too hard, but has it's moments of difficulty, the game seems kiddy, but really is a beautifully put together game. »
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« Brilliant. Ended up getting rid of mario kart for the N64 as this was far superior. »
« Jogo épico de corrida muito bom e sinceramente em alguns aspectos ele é melhor que o Mario kart 64 (do mesmo console) história boa gráficos bons e uma ótima trilha sonora »
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« Good story and good characters. TO be a banjo debut its fine but come on Donkey Kong should be playable ot at least a cameo »
« I love the game mode where you spill the baby oil and race down the massive slide. The bottom of the slide is low and starts to taper away. While your speed fades at the end of the slide, your enjoyment does not as you imagine going down the slide again. »
« Rare reinvents the kart racing genre with fresh ideas: a hub world, unique bosses, coins, unlockables, and secrets. The driving takes some getting used to and it can be maddeningly difficult, but its charm is irresistible. »
