GAMEPLAY #2
The second hour of playing this game was just as fun as the first. This game just does not get boring. The races got harder so I had to try them a couple times, but it was never frustrating. The new worlds were more fun and finding the secret world was exciting.
I played with other people too during the second hour. The battle levels were really fun to play with people. We played them over and over and it was always a different outcome. Basically this game never got boring to play.
DESIGN
For an N64 game, I would say that the graphic design to this game is really impressive. Everything flowed smoothly and there weren't any glitches. Even in the multiplayer aspect, the screens weren't blurry. The design of this game was really colorful and vibrant. And since there are so many different worlds, they all looked different and had something special about them. Each level had a different flow to it. You could either focus on getting the boosts or you could focus on getting bananas and balloons. The power ups in this game are really fun and you always have a choice of what you want unlike Mario Kart. If you needed a boost, you go for three blue balloons or if you needed to slow someone down you could get the homing missile. I like this because I like having the choice of what I want to do.
This game keeps the player interested because the levels get harder and they change so much. There are also short cuts you can find. The area you start out in is kind of cool because you can explore it. That is what amazed me when I was little. I thought it was so cool that I could fly around and explore something. For some reason when I was little I could always find cool new things. Whether it was doing tricks in the plane or jumping up a waterfall in the hovercraft, I was always entertained. I can't even think of anything that is frustrating about this game. The other thing that amazed me about this game was that it actually had cut scenes. When you got a key or won some race, there was always a cut scene. This was the first N64 game that I had played that had cut scenes.
Diddy Kong Racing is a really solid and fun game to play by yourself or with other people.
