    KTGOMASON117's Mario Kart 64 (N64)

    [October 1, 2012 11:35:36 PM]
    This week, I decided to play an older game, but one of my favorites; Mariokart 64. This game is a racing game for the Nintendo 64 game console. In the game, there are four different kinds of game modes, Grand Prix, Time Trials, Versus, and Battle. The Grand Prix is the single player racing mode where the player plays against NPCs on a variety of different tracks. The Time Trial is where the player can practice racing on the tracks before racing NPCs in the Grand Prix, or human opponents in Versus. The Battle mode allows the player to fight other players instead of racing them.
    In the Grand Prix, the player races against NPCs through a wide variety of tracks. On each of the tracks, the player not only has to look out for the NPCs, but also different obstacles on the track itself. On one track, MooMoo Farm, the track is filled with holes that have little animals that pop out of the holes. If the player hits one of the animals, the player will spin out of control and lose time and ground.
    This game has an Agon type of play to it because of the Versus mode that pits human players against one another. This is the game mode I played the most. In both the Grand Prix and the Versus modes, the player not only has to control the car, but they also are able to attack other players using a variety of different weapons that are randomly selected for the player if they run over floating cubes on the tracks. These weapons can be shells that have different abilities, bananas that make other cars slip, and stars that can knock players out of the way if hit. The cubes also give the players power-ups such as temporary invincibility and increased speed.
    In the Battle mode, each player is given three balloons. The objective is to protect your balloons while trying to hit the other player’s balloons off with shells. The last player with a balloon left is the winner.
    The game has been around since 1997, but it is still an enduring classic that has filled many hours with fun gaming.
