Kirby Air Ride is simply the best racing game I've ever played. It has a wide variety of characters, modes, and air rides. Once you beat story mode, you can try and set records, play multiplayer, and do city mode to discover secrets. This is another one of those games that you can almost never get bored of. Overall, the game is a must buy for all gamecube owners, and is spectacular. Easy controls, not hard at all, good graphics, awesome gameplay.
