Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports). "Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

"Generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission.

CTR is totally superior to Mario Kart.

I wish more people would realize this.

Having a very mario-krt childhood, when this game came out I jizzed everywhere. This game is far better than Mario Kart.

[–]SaintPwner 1 point2 points ago

i spent far too much time playing this game as a kid, i still have it in my room i think

[–]kevdotbadger 0 points1 point ago

I downloaded it off the playstation store the other day.

Someone should pick this back up as a inde game and open it for mods. Make over 100 items and power ups to use. This game still has loads of potential it needs to resurface!

[–]CrazyDiamond77 6 points7 points ago

Online multiplayer.

[–]TalesT 2 points3 points ago

There are Crash Nitrokart for iOS, which supports online play. Got it on my iPhone, quite fun.

I had this conversation while playing it with brother the other night. What if instead of a max of 10 wumpa fruit, you could have up to 100, and there were 10 tiers of items that got better each time?

Edit: I accidentally a word

OKAY! Listen up. Me and my friends still play this game and i'd like to share our drinking rules. The game is called 'Don't Drink and Drive.' The rules are two people go 1 on 1 on any map, any character. The aim of the game is to finish your drink by the end of the race AND come 1st. The catch is you can't drink WHILE driving. So in order to drink you have to set the controller down. That means you will be stationary when you drink so you have to do it tactically and fast. Say for instance you fall off the track... take that moment to drink. Or you can do what I do and race to the very end as fast as i can, stop at the finishing line and down my drink. Or just race for a bit, set it down, drink, and carry on. Enjoy getting so... so very drunk.

[–]NoobishLegend 2 points3 points ago

I used to vs my brother in Battle mode all the time and just spam the green potions. Best racing game ever imo.

Pinstripe was THE badass of my childhood.

[–]BranDetter 7 points8 points ago

I think one of Sony's smartest marketing moves (yes they do have the occasional smart marketing move) was letting everybody buy this game on their PS3s, I played the hell out this as a kid, and now I'm getting back into playing it

[–]CarlJenking 1 point2 points ago

Me and my friend still have marathons on this game. After a night out we will play till morning/afternoon. This game will never get boring.

[–]clowjs 1 point2 points ago

I was the best CTR player in the world btw.

[–]WindSandStars 1 point2 points ago

It's sunday already?

[–]memeaddictedchick 0 points1 point ago

[–]RaoulDuke92 0 points1 point ago

Am I the only one that played CTR, DK Racing, and Mario Kart..? You know you could play more than one game yeah?

[–]Snoyarc 0 points1 point ago

CTR is one of the few single player games I actually beat. I played the shit outta this are spyro when I was younger.

[–]vitalus 0 points1 point ago

This game was spectacular. I picked it up on PSN a few months ago and still occasionally play it, especially with friends

[–]iceitet 0 points1 point ago

So reminiscent... brb... basement hunting

[–]whyforyoudothis 0 points1 point ago

I swear to god if they would release an HD remake of this game, and add online multiplayer, I would pay double the price for it and beat everyone ever. FUCK.

[–]qasman 0 points1 point ago
