- shawnz 8y agoMario Kart is notorious for "rubber banding" techniques that make it easier if you are bad at the game. Other examples: - Enemies move at a speed proportional to how far behind you are. Hacking the game and putting yourself way ahead causes enemies to drive inhumanly fast.

- leghifla 8y agoAs a kid, I remember playing a racing game where you could just wait for the AI to cover one complete lap (on the three to go). Since you were so much behing, the AI would become very slow. After being overtaken, you could start racing and it was easier to win this way than really racing from the start. After discovering this trick, the game was ruined for me.
