Diddy Kong Racing (N64) Reviews

Animal friends Diddy and Co. race to beat away the bully Wizpig...who has ruined T.T the clocks race island. It's truly a great game...as any N64 gamer will no. Loads of courses...characters...challenges...and collectables make this a true winner. Race in hovercraft, car and plane through different race worlds and take on ...  Read the complete review

OKay, people have been rating my reviews crappy, since I didn't really know people reviewed the reviews (hm?...). So here is a more descriptive one. Okay. Diddy Kong Racing, let's see...you choose from a set of eight character (two you have to unlock, Drumstick the chicken or rooster or whatever and T.T. the zippy little clock). ...  Read the complete review

This has to be without a doubt one of the best racing games out for the N64 and one of the most fun as well. You can take the roll of Diddy or one of the 7 other characters available however once you have completed the entire game you can get another 2 characters that are a lot better that the original 8. There are 20 races to complete plus ...  Read the complete review

Although this game is about three years old, it is still one of the best games I have played-and I have played a lot of games! I bought it when I first goy my Nintendo 64, which I recently sold for the money to get a PS2. Anyway, it was the first game I had on the N64 and it is definitely somewhere in my top 5 list of N64 games. In the ...  Read the complete review

I borrowed this off a mate in 1998, and he hasn't had it back yet! This involves some of the characters from the Nintendo games throughout Nintendo's life - Diddy, Yoshi, and Mario to name but a few! Cuteness aside, this is a great little race em up! The one player game is an adventure where you race to win balloons, ...  Read the complete review

This is a very good game you have to complete tracks in either a plane, car or a hover buggie. There are so many levels to keep you busy and some of them aren't actual tracks but multiplayer activitys. The graphics are just unbeleiveable and charactrs are great and funny. Plenty of options to use. ...  Read the complete review

I've never been one to like racing games. In fact, I usually hate them, because they all have the same plots- drive around stupid boring cars as fast as you can without dying and trying to kill everyone else. Can anyone say, B O R I N G? Thats what I thought. Well i first rented MarioKart64 because I've always been a mario fan, and I ...  Read the complete review

I have just begun to play Diddy Kong Racing as my boyfriend likes to humiliate me, being an expert! However although it is similar to Mario Cart in its style, I find it a lot harder to control and it is very frustrating. My advice to novices who are interested in buying or stanrting to play this game is to first try out Mario ...  Read the complete review

To me, Diddy Kong racing is the 64 bit update of Super Mario Kart, it is every bit as enjoyable as the SNES classic. Diddy Kong racing was the first game I bought for my N64 and I was very impressed with it. As many people have mentioned it's more of an adventure game than a racer. There is a storyline behind the game but simply to ...  Read the complete review

Which is best Diddy Kong Racing or Mario Kart, For multiplayer its Mario, but for one player game it has to be Diddy. The extent of the single player game is amazing; it just keeps on coming at you. With the sheer amount of puzzles that just keep on coming at you, you just feel that you have to keep going to get the good and tracks and to beat ...  Read the complete review

This is the most complex game I have ever seen despite looking very ordinary at a quick glance. Diddy Kong Racing is a cross between Super Mario 64 and Mario Kart 64. It’s a car racing game and adventure game all in one go and it’s one that I would recommend to anyone, it doesn’t matter if you are a natural at the N64 or not ...  Read the complete review

When you first slot this game into the console you play it for the whole night without noticing . Everything is very colourful and there are many options to choose from . The different choices of veichles is a nice touch . When you get bored of the car you can switch to a plane or even a hovercraft . This makes it sort of 3 games in one as many ...  Read the complete review

This game is a true classic, but is it a racer or an adventure??? The debate will rage on and on, you can have some cracking racing fun, but the ultimate aim is to collect coins to progress and defeat wizpig!! The graphics are superb, and the game is massive taking eons to complete, but it does not lose its sense of fun!! I would heartily ...  Read the complete review

What another brilliant game for the Nintendo 64, made by Rare and one of the best games out there. Diddy Kong racing is a fast racing game but with an element of adventure thrown in. There are so many characters to choose from there is one to appeal to everyone. It is based on a racing game going around different circuits with different characters ...  Read the complete review

Diddy Kong racing is not as fast and furious as Mario Kart, but that doesn't mean is isn't great fun. The characters are really cute and the tracks are exciting despite being slow. The best part about this game is the adventure, as it is really addictive! Diddy Kong is different to Mario Kart in that you have to become a pro in not only ...  Read the complete review

This is a fun 1-4 player racer, very much in the vein of Mario Kart. Rather than mere karting, however, the level structure adds a depth to the uncovering of new levels, with one on one challenges, and further variety in game modes. The range of vehicles open to you also varies, with hovercraft and planes also on the menu. This ought to ...  Read the complete review

Well it’s yet another blockbusting chart topping record breaking game from Rare. If you liked Mario Kart you’ll like this but I’m sorry to say that Mario is slightly better than this, but don’t get me wrong this game still is great, quite possibly one of the best for the N64. It has super smooth graphics and characters that ...  Read the complete review

Diddy Kong Racing for the Nintendo 64 is not the fastest or most mind blowing racing game ever made…but it is the funniest, wackiest and most light-hearted racing game this side of cyberspace! After choosing from a range of characters such as Diddy Kong (a monkey), Pipsey (a mouse), or Banjo (a bear) you can be taken on a journey through ...  Read the complete review

An impostor to Mario Kart...and with some success! Unfortunately, the multi-player mode doesn’t appear to bring forward any entertainment. It seems too slow, and the power-ups are quite feeble. However, the one player mode is the far superior equivalent of Mario-Kart’s. It’s got a story, and it turns into a ...  Read the complete review
