I just ordered it off Amazon (for about $10) and figured it'd be a good game for a local game night. I played through the first one on the Wii and really enjoyed it. It's not Mario Kart and that's not a bad thing.

Is the 2nd one a good sequel? We don't mind playing bad or cheap games but I figured I'd give an ask just to know what I'm getting into.

Are there any cool unlockables like the 1st one? I liked playing through the levels (which rewarded you nicely in general) and unlocking some cool old school sega characters and levels.

I love this game! definitely one of my favorites of last year, I got it on 3ds it's got some great 3D.

I've only played the wii u version in stores but it seems like it's as good.

Yes I believe there are quite a few unlockables.

Wii U version has some pretty bad framerate issues whereas the 360 and PS3 do not. If you can get it cheaper than those 2... or you don't have the other consoles... its ok. If the others are an option avoid the Wii U version.

It upsets me that Mario Kart 8 was better received that Sonic All Star Racing. Sonic is such a GREAT game. Best racer ina while tbh.

Sonic All-Star Racing Transformed on the PC is my favorite kart racer. Of course, I haven't played Mario Kart 8, but compared to the other MK games, Diddy Kong Racing, etc, I'd choose Transformed any day. Just love the vehicular transitions, graphics, Sega references.

Yeah, Racing transformed was a great surprise for me, i expected it to be really shit to be honest. Turns out that it was pretty damn fun, lots of characters and lots of levels all showing some homage to early Sega IP's. If only Nintendo could do something half as cool with Mario Kart, then they might be onto something worth playing. :P

I have this on both PS3 and Steam, the only thing I don't like is that unlocking the other characters is pretty damn difficult but I guess when you do unlock them it is like weight lifted off your shoulders

I like it more than MK7 and 8. I get into heated debates with my Nintendot friends at work who have foggy lenses. Even though they are like, "Yeah that is a solid kart game I loved it." They still say they like MK series better. For reasons... unknown. The MK series is good and all... but 7 has balance issues and 8 is too easy.
