Resident Evil Kart’s fixed camera angles make for a charmingly frustrating classic (arstechnica.com)

Longtime Super Mario Kart hacker MrL314 calls Resident Evil Kart "the worst thing I have ever created," and it's not hard to see why. As implied by the title, the ROM patch replaces Super Mario Kart's usual over-the-shoulder tracking camera with something more akin to the awkward fixed-angle "perspective shots" of the original PlayStation 1 Resident Evil games. The perspective automatically jumps between these fixed cameras around the track as your racer moves from section to section, forcing you to judge turns and obstacles from very skewed angles.

It could be worse. Third-person, fixed camera angles Doom.

It'd be funny if after some distance there was a loading screen of a kart going through a doorway or something.
