It's a kart game from Nintendo.  Which means it's easy and has simple graphics.  BUT - It's also very fun.   
The simple graphics work here.  Remember simple doesn't mean grainy, just not overkill.  It's meant to be cartoony and achieves it...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

To me Diddy Kong racing was the first great game to mix racing type gameplay with platform gameplay.  Rare did a great job doing it to. 
 
The game is like MArio KArts you drive around as Rare characters and you have weapons that you...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

After playing Mario Kart 64, which is a very good racing game on the N64 system, thought that this game has upgraded but not as fun.  In other words, if it did take out some gameplay elements from Mario Kart then this would be a great game.  I mean...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Diddy Kong Racing is one of the best racing games for little kids.  It has many different types of racing vehicles.  For one thing you can use planes or cars or even boats on the appropriate race tracks.  You can face others in battle or go...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

This game isn't that good.  It is basically a rip off of the Mario Kart series.  The only good thing about it is the Story Mode but it lacks the battle mode found in Mario Kart.  The weapons in Mario Kart are far better than the weapons in Diddy...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Diddy Kong Racing, you can bet it's going to be good.  Diddy gets his own game that doesn't in any way have anything to do with Donkey!  His first shot at a Kart game, Diddy succeeds and comes away with a winning game.  The grpahics are simple,...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

This is a pretty good racer for the N64 system.  It offers pretty good racing gameplay.  However, if you compare this game to Mario kart 64 then the game is all that great.  It was pretty fun to play this game.  The game has good graphics.  The...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

This is definitely a great kart racer.  Unfortunately, it had to be on the same system as mario kart. 
 
What mainly sets diddy kong racing apart from mario kart is the ability to choose different vehicles.  You can choose either a kart,...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

I feel this game surpasses the original mario kart 64 although it is not a mario Kart game but the way it is it is a worthy heir to mario cart.  this is how mario kart 64 should have been made.

Diddy Kong Racing is what I would call a rock solid title.  It pulls no punches, yet is in no way fantastic or ground breaking.  The best thing about DKR is its similarity to Mario Kart 64, a game I thoroughly enjoy.This is no rehash of Mario Kart...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

I'm not really sure why I ever sold my N64 to be honest.  Whilst reviewing all these classics from that console, I remember the fun I had playing them, and think that mebbe the GameCube is gonna be pretty good after all.  Back to the review though. ...    [ Read The Full Review... ]
