Yes, please do a kart racing game for the 360 Rare.

I would like to see other characters besides just the ones in Viva Pinata though. Conker, Banjo, Joanna Dark, ect.

That would be cool to have the various RARE characters included also.

Very cool and if they can combine the fun of Mario Cart with awesome XB360 graphic's i'll be in heaven. That is still a great game, particularly for multi-player.

I was surprised to see COD3 get so many average scores, most impressions i have seen have been positive (and it just arrived from UPS this morning so i want it to be good. ).
