Play MagazineThis is a real racer, and a really big racer developed by the reigning kings of the kind, Rainbow Studios, who worked closely with Pixar and all of the celebrity talent from the film...to create a companion game as high-performance as the movies it's based on. [July 2006, p.70]

Cars is not the most complex racing game around, but it manages to capture the Pixar spirit very well. Aside from this, it's an enjoyable game with solid gameplay and a great presentation.

AceGamezAlthough by no means perfect, Cars certainly raises the bar, and hopefully the public's expectations of what a video game tie-in should be. For this more than anything, Rainbow Studios should be applauded.
-
This is a good game for families in that it really does offer a lot for many different ages. While hard-core racing gamers won't get much out of it, everyone else will enjoy it.
-
It's kind of like a junior sandbox approach that younger gamers will enjoy because they can just trundle around without crashing or waiting for loads and older kids will love because it allows them to explore a large area and find characters and items that they'll recognize from the movie.
-
It's hardly the next big thing in driving games, but it still manages to deliver the most authentic Pixar film experience to the video game medium of any previous attempt, and it's certainly one of the better kid-oriented games to come out this year.
