As a fan of crash, i tried playing Mario kart, and It wasnt a pleasant experience. For start, i found It too slow and too easy. But i later learned that It was because of the mode, and there are faster modes to play. So i wont judge It based on that. But the biggest problem was that i felt the karts didnt had weight to then, they felt too much like toys. Both the handling and the sound and animations. The itens also werent as pleasant to use, as they dont have the same impact. On Crash when you hit someone, the bastard explodes in flames. On Mario all they do is bounce a little while throwing a tantrum like a baby (and no, im not talking about the baby characters).

[@MultiplayerMedia]

Thanks for your thoughts! :)

[@Jdudec367]

Eh....I would say the karts had weight to them and they didn't really feel like toys at all. The handling, sound, and the animations are all fine really. They honestly are as pleasant to use and they have as big of an impact. Ok if that's what you mean true....but that's not much of an issue and there are still explosive Mario kart items...and really they aren't throwing a tantrum like a baby.

[@Hecatom]

I have to disagree with the statement that the online mp of mk8 is more competitive. One of the main complains from many casuals is that many dont really have the chance to play bevause even moderately decent players outrun them by more than 30 seconds making them being unable to finish the races. Ctr online requires you to understand the mechanics at a competent level, otherwise you arent playing.

You should do another video on where CTR is now especially with the monthly GPs that Beenox has done and the new challenging Ring Rally mode. I prefer CTR because I grew up with Crash just a tiny bit more than Mario but I don’t hate Mario Kart at all. I also like how CTR is so rewarding especially after a tough grind to win a race and collecting wumpa coins that I need to purchase content from the pit stop.

[@MultiplayerMedia]

I think with the way CTR has handled post release content (apart from micro transactions) Mario could take inspiration and learn something. I love both though really. I feel as though we'll get MK9 next year so I'll certainly be talking about a number of kart races for the foreseeable and maybe I will do a comparison again at some stage. Thanks for your comment, it was an interesting read! 🙂

[@SpookyShadowEX]

The only problem I have is with the items in Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled. The reason is that you can get hit by items over and over, But in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe you can’t, since every time you get hit by an item a invincibility shield is around you. The shield lasts for about 3 seconds and then it disappears.

[@MultiplayerMedia]

I have to say it isn't something that has frustrated me/i have noticed too much. However, I can understand why such a feature could begin to get very annoying now that I'm thinking about it. Overall, CTR is that little bit more ruthless for better or worse 🙂 Thanks for sharing your comment!

[@rashedkarimi007]

No when ur hit gat finish other can hit u again, if u gat shield what's a point 🤔

[@rickystlsandmusic]

In my opinion, its Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled for the win. The driving mechanics is way more fun and comfortable for me and timing the drifts and boosts are really cool and satisfying, the visuals are very realistic too. As for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, I think the part where it shines more are some unique racing styles in various tracks where there are underwater sections and anti-gravity sections. CTR:NF featured some tracks from the old Crash Nitro Kart game, which originally had anti-gravity sections, however the tracks are remade to have no anti-gravity sections in CTR:NF, probably the only downside for me. Each game shines in its own way, but for me Crash is the winner here

[@MultiplayerMedia]

@@chocobovonhauske8518 I've played Mario Kart on all of the CC's through my years playing it and although it is certainly harder at the higher CC's and ok different tracks, compared to CTR it's alot more straightforward. That isn't a bad thing though necessarily.

[@chocobovonhauske8518]

@@MultiplayerMedia Fair enough, just giving my thoughts there. However, even though I do accept that it is simpler, and because of that CTR requires more inputs, I do not necessarily think it's better or more complicated per se, hear me out, drift boosting indeed requires skill, however, you always want the most amount of boost posible, and for that you need your best timing, there is never a situation where you wouldn't want to drift boost, only situations where you don't have enough time to get as many drift boosting levels as you would want... Hmmmmm, sounds familiar to another unnecessary active improving skill that you ALWAYS want, oh yeah, L-Canceling in Melee, one of the most questionable mechanics in a video game ever. Yeah it creates a skill gap between new and old players, but even then, many of the top players ahree that it is a stupid mechanic, because if you would like to have that amount of ipm, then you would better do it not in an excecution contest, but in a decision making one, in the end it is a fighting game, you are fighting against another person, why would you implement an execution mechanic that favors people that press buttons fast for the simple perk of... Having a better character, when you could develope a mechanic that sure, needs as much excecution and rhythm/ipm, but instead of always wanting to do it, have different properties for not doing it, both good and bad, and so you create a game play loop that works in relation to the direct conflict between 2 players, instead of a conflict between you and your controller, because if you want to implement an active mechanic that needs demanding inputs, but you always want to get it, then you should simply have that mechanic as a passive and implement another more interesting mechanic (ex. Smash ultimate has reduced landing lag, which is the whole purpose of L-canceling, but it has it without a dumb mechanic, so you can focus more on the actual fight, having a good neutral, advantage and disadvantage game) So I think that drift boosting is that, having to improve your excecution to get right a mechanic that you always want anyway, so the conflict lies between you and your controller, not against the other players. In the other hand, mk8 with 200cc has the normal drift mechanic, however, although you want the boost from the drift in many occasions, there are many where there is better not having the boost, whether because you will fall in a turn where you are going 2 fast, or because you actually have a better time not using it, or just use it to adjust your position without getting the boost, heck, sometimes you don't even want to drift for similar reasons, so instead of having an artificial "skill mechanic" that needs you to memorize it, you actually have a mechanic that asks you to UNDERSTAND IT. But hey, if many people like the CTR drift boosting then it's fine, it's still an outstanding game don't get me wrong, I just feel uncomfortable when people call the skill based CTR harder or better than Mk in terms of game play (which sure, it is 150cc or less, but imo not in 200cc). I'll keep playing both.

[@MultiplayerMedia]

You have raised some interesting points there and it's great to read an alternate opinion. I guess that for me, MK8 boost mechanics just come easier and are more familiar with what I expect from a racing/kart racing game. Consequently, i'm always going to find that an easier expereince and CTR's more unique mechanics more challenging :) Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this!

I haven played MK series at all, but looking at the clips it seems to be very slow, at least comparing to CTR.

[@mattbelcher7135]

[@rageinternet9391]

While I *objectively* think CTR is the better game due to it's gameplay engine, I think Mario stuck to me more on a personal level and here's why... .The OST and tracks in the Mario Kart games had more variety of atmosphere like for example: The heavier sounding tracks and the fiery and deadly designs of the Bowser Castle Tracks and Airship fortress, The whacky Soundtracks and designs of courses like Moo Moo farm, Wario's gold mine and Sunset wilds and then we got the majestic or futuristic Soundtracks and designs of the iconic Rainbow Road tracks and the horrifically underrated course, Sky Garden. I'm not saying the CTR doesn't strive for different atmosphere but it's courses' designs were still mainly based around cartoony, whacky and bouncy atmosphere which I do like don't get me wrong but the variety of the Mario Kart Tracks and music sticks to me more. .I'm more nostalgic to Mario than Crash so... .I feel like Mario Kart had a charm that get's to me which Crash does not. This charm has to be from how Mario Kart gives more of it's own universe and straying away from it's original source for example: Technodrome, Sky Garden (again), Moo Moo Farm (again) and Rainbow Road (yes, again) which from what I played, none of these tracks where referenced from the original Mario platformers (if u catch my drift

I really love your comment, it's one of the best I've read. First of all, I agree that the work Beenox did made CTR objectively better and in my mind has laid down a real challenge to Mario Kart. Having recently dived in to the Crash Universe i have to say it resonates with me quite well. However, there's something magical about the Mario universe and its music and feel so I understand what you are saying. For example, I'll sit down and listen to Nintendo music but not Crash really (though I do for Spyro). I think the idea of feel and immersion in a games style and universe is underrated by many so i appreciate this post so much!

one of the biggest reasons why people say ctr has a higher skill ceiling is because of the blue fire mechanic which rewards the player a much higher speed boost that they can keep the entire race if they can maintain constant drifts boosts without hitting any walls after hitting a boost pad, along with most of the shortcuts being able to be done with without any items

Ctr and mk8 are great but I say ctr is better so you can hate it all you want bad skiller

[@kirbworld]

Stop bullying creators of each game how would you feel if people were gonna insult mk8 as bad as you hate ctr

[@1belino114]

For some reason MK8 has a 93 score on metacritic and crash has 83 lol. I think i'll never understand that

[@jondandavekinanahan7488]

It also has microtransctions

[@MultiplayerMedia]

CTR? Yeah they added that after release sadly.

[@MultiplayerMedia]

@Omar the Wumpa Fruit Agreed.

[@mr.leroysmith7012]

if only ctr nitro is 60 fps on switch man this would be even better.

@Omar the Wumpa Fruit Bro what do you want I was just saying my opinion

[@70ksubsbutnovid45]

CTR easely

[@Robnoxious]

I never liked mario kart because I grew up with crash team racing, started playing the original ctr when I was 3 years old lol. Mario kart is too easy to play, I love games with challenges

[@BDA_Empire69]

[@Stratilex]

YOU CAN TRICK OFF OF SPEED RAMPS BROOOO

[@crumplycashew7095]

When I got Mario Kart 8 Deluxe I didn’t really play it that much cuz I got bored quickly, but after literally 2 years I got back in the game and had a lot of fun, now I play it more frequently and I don’t get as bored, but CTR, I AM GONNA PLAY THIS GAME A LOT, it is very addictive and very fun. Also, it hurts me to see you not tricking off the ramps in MK8.

[@sizzlerguy1317]

Ctr NF has more details it's really realistic and much more improved textures then mario kart 8 deluxe

[@MultiplayerMedia]

I love how CTR looks!

[@therunawaykid6523]

But mk is 60 fps and ctr is only 30 you can really tell when seeing it in motion mk is so smooth, crt still looks good though

[@abcdeeplays9918]

Ctr i want ctr i want ctr ctr is my fav game

[@AndrewThePoet]

I prefer Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

[@MultiplayerMedia]

Fair enough 🙂

Wow comparing a game from 5 years ago And comparing another game from 20 years ago

[@MultiplayerMedia]

Right??

[@JustLou08]

That's how far ahead of it's time CTR was. 20 years later and it's still holds as a decent kart racer.

[@darthvader50]

Mario kart 8 deluxe is better

[@kevinabm1]

If you are a kid maybe

[@kidsIIIII009]

while CTR is better in PS4 and Xbox One

[@RAWKITHED]

@NINTENDO_SONYFAN SOLDIER Mario kart is for brain dead people who can't focus on one thing for more than 5 seconds. CTR is and always have been for professional players

[@Mariofan121]

@NINTENDO_SONYFAN SOLDIER First off, learn to respect other peoples opinion. and second, as much as i like MK8 Deluxe, It does not have Content Updates. CTR:NF has Content Updates. Third, Beenox actually listens to fans about updates unlike Nintendo. Unless you want to piss me off any more, i suggest that you learn to respect opinions.

[@Mariofan121]

@NINTENDO_SONYFAN SOLDIER Also, CTR has Post-Content update unlike Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

[@keelansteph9292]

his CTR drifts are so cringy, CTR is by far heaps better

[@MrSai-mn8wz]

WHY CANT WE BE FRIEND WHY CANT WE BE FRIENDS WHY CANT WE BE FRIENDS WHY CANT WE BE FRIENDS JUST STOP THIS MARIO KART VS CTR BULLSHIT BOTH GAMES ARE GREAT BUT I DO PREFER CTR A BIT MORE BUT STILL JUST STOP

[@MultiplayerMedia]

I delete any comments I feel are unfair or abusive. I want to encourage people to look at the positives which each kart racer brings so we can look at where we want these games to go in the future. It's not BS, it's a comparison and alot of people find these types of videos interesting and fun. I understand why some may see the concept as problematic but honestly i'm not trying to create arguments here. If people behave like idiots comments get delted. I hope you can see where i'm coming from :) thanks Alex

[@TheAymanhassan]

ctr wins

[@MultiplayerMedia]

It's mixed things up which I love! Great game!

CTR Nitro Fueled is for the Adults.... Mk8 is for the kiddos
