Second lap: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe review

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe review: The return of the king
That I'm sitting here in 2017 and writing a review of Mario Kart 8 definitely seems strange. I have played this game before – a lot – and now I'm revisiting the same game under very different circumstances.- The definitive version of Mario Kart 8

- Battle mode is everything we wanted the first time around
- Rubberbanding will frustrate every player from time to time
- Mario Kart 8 veterans may not have enough to warrant another purchase
- Too expensive for a re-release of a three year old game
