I’m surprised that no one (especially AkumajoBelmont) has made a topic about this new game. Considering that it’s been over a week or two, that SEGA has announced a sequel to their 2010 hit. I really enjoyed the first game, so I’m defiantly looking forward to the sequel. I hope this game will be more than meets the eye.
　
So far, there’s a Panzer Dragoon track, a total of 27 characters will be playable and a new Adventure/story mode where you have to rescue the other racers.
　
　
Share your thoughts everyone… Oh and who cares if this game is a MK7 clone.

i'll probably get it. i'll admit that i did enjoy the first.

however, i feel it needs moar nights

[BardicKnowledge]

I will be getting it for sure. The first Sonic & Sega All Stars racer is the best kart racer of the generation, definitely looking forward to this one.

Alrighty then, time for some info to share with ya. You might already know this in the E3 topic, but if you haven’t yet I can reveal…

1. They released the E3 trailer
2. Joe Musashi from the Shinobi series will be in it
3. Shadow the Hedgehog will return
4. And finally, NASCAR driver Danica Patrick will appear as special guest exclusive

　
That’s it for now. If there’s anymore info on the game, I’ll let you know…

If Danica fricking Patrick is in this there is absolutely no reason NiGHTS should not be a playable character. No excuse in the world.

Oh, for real. This is one racing game that should NOT be overlooked. Believe me. SUMO Digital are pros in the Racing genre and they are making a beast out of this game.

It is also worth mentioning that former Bizarre Creations developers were absorbed in to SUMO Digital when they got shut down. If you don't know what this means it means you've not only got SUMO handling things but you've got the guys who made Metropolis Street Racer, Project Gotham and Blur on board this title as well.

I think if you have ever cared for SEGA at some point in your life and love racing games then this game will be THE ONE to play when it releases. Even if you have never really followed SEGA that much, this racing game is solid and packed with enough heart and soul to throw a smile on your face.

Not sure if ready for a SEGA fanservice version of Diddy Kong Racing...

[DiGi Valentine]

Oh, it plays differently to Diddy Kong. Much differently. Don't let the alternative modes of the vehicles fool you in to thinking this is a clone of some sort. I don't think Diddy Kong Racing had tracks that changed as you raced through them, nor do i think Diddy Kong allowed for your vehicle to change while your actually racing through the course.

Another thing that really is worth noting is the handling of the cars. As i said, Bizarre Creation devs jumped on board and the cars feel somewhere between a kart game and an arcade racer that Bizarre Creations of old were famously known for. It handles so smoothly, the feedback for it so far as been fantastic!

Trust me, this game is awesome and will be such a worthy title to the SEGA brand once it releases.

My only hope is people can look beyond the so-called 'similarities' and actually experience the game for themselves.

Will there be online multiplayer? If so, count me in!

I'll be more than happy to school some of you guys.

I do believe so, yes. For a racing game not to have the feature included would be like shooting oneself in both feet these days, lol XD
