    Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2 Grand Prix
    This is how you do a sequel.
    Nearly every gripe I had in my review of the first Nickelodeon Kart Racers has been fixed here in Kart Racers 2 almost as if developers actually watch care and listen to feedback That being said there are still a few minor adjustments gamemill can make for the eventual 3rd game in th series..

    That being said there are still a few minor adjustments gamemill can make for the eventual 3rd game in th series..
    Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2 Grand Prix is as youd guess a kart racer with nickelodeon characters, and this time you can feel time, effort, and care went into crafting the sequel.. as here there are more than double the amount of charcters in the first, infact there are 30 characters to unlock vs the original 12, and that’s right, you heard right.. unlock.. you have to unlock them.. a huge knock against the first, the first game had no replayability, but here theres so much to unlock and do in kart racers 2 that this has actual potential to be a racing staple in your collection, there are grand prixs to race and win, all with tracks that feel varied and alive.. a huge improvmenet over the original game, though just a little more care needs to go into them as I didn’t find any particularly fun to race on.. but thankfully the overhaul in the mechanics make racing fun enough on its own. Collecting slime tokens to go faster, collecting slime to unlock an ability to help you in the race, I love the collectin aspect, making kart racers 2 feel more strategic rather than simply relying on the mystery box.. youll also unlock different crew members that help you in different ways, and I really wish it stayed at that… a huge gripe I have in kart racers is when racers have no personality, and that sadly is the case here… for the sake of parents, there is no voice acting or taunts as you play which really makes the racing feel flat and while there are individual character stats, you can throw on different performance items to really make it not matter who youre playing as… same with the support characters you unlock, I feel they should be attached to the characters of their show to make this game and its characters feel like it has a little personality…
    This is my biggest gripe overall with kart racers 2, from its characters to its tracks which should be viewed as characters themselves.. its all flat and lifeless compared only to its potential, but compared to the original game, this is all still a massive jump forward.
    Other improvements come through faster racing modes, online and local multiplayer with up to 4 players and a ahcllaenge mode where you can complete a variety of challenges to unlock more main characters and support characters..
    While Nickelodeon Kart Racers as a series needs more polish, I was impressed with the improvements here, making nickelodeon Kart Racers 2 an actual pretty solid kart racing game
    I give Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2 Grand Prix

    The pit crew system is the real deal. It's the big difference from other karting games, and opens up an immense amount of strategy and replayability. I can't stress enough how cool this is, both for single player challenges and competitive play. Still no voices, but the roster is incredible, game controls great, graphics are much better and music is finally good and representative of the series.

    El salto de calidad desde el primer juego es notablemente positivo, sin ser espectacular logra ser un videojuego decente.

    I've two major issues with this game. The first is that it often has a strong framerate drop when playing with two players (playing on base xbox one). Which is killing in a racing game. The second is that de control scheme cannot be adjusted. I've asked for a refund.

    This yes is a job well done, old game but runs perfectly 60fps, already its new version is very rotten. Developers should review their games before making a successor. The game needs to be played, there's no point in having new generation graphics if it doesn't perform well. They should have taken this game and worked on it by adding and changing only clues, characters, items, cars, andThis yes is a job well done, old game but runs perfectly 60fps, already its new version is very rotten.

Taking a game and redoing it isn't working out.I hope you correct the mistakes of Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3 and that it stays at 60fps equal to this...… Expand

    Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2 doesn't try to invent the wheel, but what it does, it does well. It's a good attraction for the little ones in the house.

    Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2: Grand Prix is obviously a game aimed directly at children. To be fair though that shouldn’t be taken into account when deciding my verdict on the title. At times the game can seem fairly simple, but at others be a frustrating mess considering all the items and abilities that can screw you over in a race. It just doesn’t have that racing vibe that I’m used to seeing in racing games. It feels more hectic and chaotic more than anything. Without a doubt in my mind, my younger self would probably love this game and everything it has to offer. Taking off my nostalgia goggles Kart Racers 2 just isn’t the game for me and that’s OK. I know that the target audience would get a kick out of it and play it for hours on end. I’ll stick to Mario Kart 8 for now.

    A fun kart racing game that offers four player local and online multiplayer with a huge cast of characters from the Nickelodeon catalogue of shows that you can use to build your dream racing team. It has you racing on tracks inspired by the cartoons and featuring the music you know.
