Every time I play a new kart racing game, I'm always disappointedly surprised at the lack of innovation within the genre - and Lego 2K Drive is nothing new in that respect. I've played this game before. You've, undoubtedly, played this game before. This is Mario Kart. This is Crash Team Racing. This is Garfield Kart.
Lego 2K Drive’s story mode is absolutely stuffed full of content, although this is mostly to its detriment. The actual story missions only took me about five hours to complete, but there’s a wealth of side content to work through once you’ve beaten them. The side missions are very cut and paste however, and you’ll be repeating the same missions several times across every map if you’re going for 100% completion or, worse, trying to earn more Brickbux – Lego 2K Drive’s in-game currency for its micro-transaction store.
