Yeah, I'm doing like everyone else and waiting for it to go down in price. I do embody the site's name... plus, not much of a Sonic fan. Think that makes me a little cheaper. lol
I was ordering something for my brother's birthday and saw the ps3 version drop to $21. That was close enough to my $20 price on this so I picked it up.
Not sure why the price is bouncing but it might be worth watching to see if it drops again.
Really fun game, and like someone said earlier in the thread, takes a bit of work to get first place on each race. Best "arcade" racer since Mario Kart: Double Dash imo.

I gotta admit the pc version does rock though compared to the console one.
Have it for Wii U and my 4 year daughter can finish in the top 4 when set to easy. 9 and 8 yo sons can win. It's actually a fun game. As someone else said, it's not Mario Kart, but worth a pickup to me for $22. I think I paid $30 and am happy with the purchase. Also played the 3ds version and we like the Wii U version much better.
I have the Wii/Wii U for Kart games. If I was gonna get a racing game for my 360 it would be Forza, etc. That's just me though.
I have it on the Wii U & flipped the 3DS version right when it was released (Target had a price error for $9). The Wii U version is much better than the 3DS version. I'd avoid the 3DS version at all cost. Not even comparing it to Mario Kart, it's meh at best especially considering the draw-in is horrible! It's like your playing with fog in front of you since you can't really see anything in front of you until the last second (specically on turns from what I remember). There's a reason why it was released 3-months after all other versions were released (from Nov to Feb)...yet the issue still wasn't resolved.

You could play this game on max settings with a $400-$500 PC.
[quote name='StoneNinja']It's fun but takes some skill to get first place. Definitely not something for the younger kids. I played this expecting Mario Kart and got F-Zero.[/QUOTE]
A game where it actually takes some skill to get first place? Sign me up!
This is perfect. I've been wanting this game for a while, and I've been looking for something to use my Amazon $20 credit (from an earlier offer) towards. Two birds, one stone.
