Though a little clunky at times, Transformed is up there with the best kart racers, even surpassing some Mario Karts in my opinion. The transformation gimmick allows for creative track design, and the character lineup is really silly in the best way possible. The career mode is even playable in co-op, so like, y’know, heck yeah
This is a fantastic and amazing Racer with a stellar roster and references that I had a lot of fun doing the missions for. The tank battle, Battle, and Rival races are all my favorites. I mainlined Sonic, Shadow and Metal Sonic because of course I did. Honestly, this may be better to me than Mario Kart. It's that good.
A very good kart racer that is fun all the way through!
The first couple of races you'll have to get used to the controls/handling, after having played it I find that the game controls very well.
Customization isn't really big, but you can modify all you racers to make your favorite character suit your playstyle.
The stages are where it's at in this game! Super imaginative, with the tracks changing with each lap driven. From a volcano spewing debris to destroy parts of the road, to an aquarium slowly filling up with water!
Is it as good as Mario Kart? Of course not! Only Mario Kart is as good as Mario Kart.
But Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed does enough things differently to be fun in it's own way!
