Reminds me of diddy kong racing in a way.

With all the vehicle transformations it reminds me exactly like Hot Wheels Extreme Racing. The supposed sequel of the epic Turbo Racing. It wasn't bad though, just weird.

I'm REALLY loving the On-the-fly changing. And each different phase has a complete gameplay model, so they all feel complete.
I especially like Tails' car. It's definitely a Continuity Nod to his car from the Sonic Drift series.

I love how Crazy Taxi is in it too. It would be awesome if they had a nod to Virtua Cop in it. Imagine a bullet-ridden cop car that turned into maybe a SWAT helicopter. LOL. This game I'm highly interested in for whatever reason.

It does look interesting. Hopefully it's good. I haven't played a good kart racer in sometime. Last great kart racer I played was the original mario kart, but then again I'm not big on kart racing. Alot of those games seem to lack substance to me.
Like Modnation racers. the best part of that game is the track maker. The racing part of it felt too simple.

I've heard Mario Kart 7 is pretty good. I'll stick with Mario Kart 64 though.

Mario Kart, IMO, started to get boring after DoubleDash. The only really game changing elements that carried on from DoubleDash was characters having access to a pool of karts and the winged Blue Shell From Hell.
Sonic & Sega's allstars Racing is a lot better for pure kart racing. The weapon systems are a lot more balanced, the core driving engine is a whole lot better(It's made by the people behind the more recent Outrun titles, of course it's going to be good) and the Allstar Move system is a lot more balanced the just having a fuckton of items that everyone can use to screw over the leader. (Blue Shells, POW Blocks, Lighting, lord knows how many green and red shells, and maybe an invincible collision to finish off the humiliation conga that is being in first place?) It's more about skill then item whoring and/or snaking to death

The original All-Stars racing was really fun (and far superior to Mario Kart Wii, IMO; better track design), but this seems like it's just trying to respond to Mario Kart 7.
Also, they really shouldn't put Danica Patrick in as a playable character. That's just dumb.
As for the best kart racer I've played in my experience? Crash Team Racing, hands-down.

^Seriously? Danica Patrick? I'm trying to recall what Sega franchise she was on. Oh wait...

I will probably pick it up when it is on the $20 stand.

Are you guys serious? Allstars Transformed has been in production for a while. They brought up tha t during production they saw Mario Kart 7 and called bullshit. The Danica Patrick thing...I don't know...it kinda makes sense since they're grabbing from all of Sega mythology, but still...
The game looks VERY impressive. A lot of innovations and expansions not only on it's own formula, but kart racing in general. I can tell you right now that I'm buying this the moment it comes out.

This game is on sale on Steam for 4.99. It's very tempting for me right now since I've decided to give up on waiting for another game.
I'm hearing very positive reviews. Wondering if anyone here has similar sentiments?

I played the demo on ps3 and had fun with it. I would buy it for 5 bucks if I had the computer to run it.

Just got to check Steam more clearly. They are selling it for 4.99 and they are having a free weekend to try it out. Installing now. Will report back with short review.
