Crash Nitro Kart

Kart racer starring Crash Bandicoot and other series characters. Emperor Velo drags the cast to an alien planet where they're forced to race against Neo Cortex's crew to survive. Arcade mode drops you straight into races, while Adventure mode follows the story campaign as Crash and friends try to earn their way back to Earth. Four-player split-screen lets you compete in battle modes. The GameCube version supports connectivity features and online leaderboards for posting times. Tracks span different planet zones, and you'll drift, boost, and use power-ups typical of the genre. If you want Crash in a racing game with a villain-driven plot and local multiplayer, this delivers that setup.
