In 1992 a Mario Kart was released and took the world by storm, its clever use of power ups, zany racetracks and outrageously fun multiplayer cemented Mario Kart into the halls of history as being the definitive fun racer that all other try an emulate. Others have tried to mimic its greatness but have always fallen short, but amidst the ashes of CTR and SonicRacers comes a rather unexpected arrival, Zero Gears. A PC game gunning for Mario's blood…yes I said PC. Lets see how it shapes up…
Nimblebit has released a new update for its kart combat and racing game Zero Gear, adding the new Sumo game mode.
Multiplayer.it: The genre of arcade driving games was very fashionable a few years ago, just think of legendary games like ATR - All Terrain Racing or the newer Re-Volt, still a myth in many actually still played by a handful of loyalists .
Gamer Limit writes: "When you think of competitive kart racing games, Mario Kart is the main franchise that comes to mind, with several iterations on all number of Nintendo systems. However, developer Nimblebit is hoping to shake up the kart racing genre with their first offering for the PC, Zero Gear.
It's hard not to draw parallels to Mario Kart when speaking of a kart racing game, and Zero Gear stays true to the style, offering numerous weapons to use against your opponents in an effort to score an underhanded win."
