Gameplay The control differs from charecter to character and from vehicle to vehicle. It's easy to learn, but hard to master. For example, holding R while flying a plane makes the turning looser, so you have to hold the R button the whole time! Controlling the plane and car is easy enough, but the hovercraft is nearly impossible! There are 8 characters and 2 hidden ones, 3 vehicles, 12 items that help you win, and 30 levels including boss battles. The levels are connected by an overworld, much like in Banjo-Kazooie and Mario 64. The piont of the game is to collect all the Golden Balloons. Collecting them opens up more levels and finally leads to Wizpig, the boss. It's great as a singleplayer, but Mario Kart 64 iss the better multiplayer game. No one wants to play this with me because it's too childish. I enjoy Mario Kart 64 more. Graphics Waaaaaaaaay too cute. Rare is known for it's overly cute games, but this is ridicluos. This aside, the game is beautiful. These are some of the best graphics on the N64. Sound Nothing special here. You get a few ouches and yippees, and the music is also too cute. Multiplayer Like I said before, Mario Kart 64's multiplayer mode is better. There are only 2 battle modes, which sucks of course. Replay Value It takes a long time to beat and once you do beat it, another mode is unlocked. Trying to get T.T.(one of the secret characters) takes a long time. Obviously the multiplayer mode makes you want to play the game more, unless you have Mario Kart 64. Overall Mario Kart 64 is better, plain and simple. And that's the final word, because Pjacks said so!
