    Filled with all of the delightfully loony character of the Looney Tunes cartoons and their wildly hilarious antics, Space Race is a game that will not fail to amuse or bring a smile to your face.

    A fun little cartoony racer that's meant for here-and-now thrills and for the young-at-heart grown-ups that still watch Looney Tunes.

    From all of the available characters that could have been drawn upon, Infogrames really left a lot on the table with this title.

    Fast and fun, but not one for the hardcore who expect balanced play mechanics as a matter of, ahem, course.

    There’s no getting away from the fact that this is nothing more then a standard Mario Kart clone, albeit one with lots to do and lots of extras to uncover and one that captures the Looney Tunes license perfectly.

    Offers plenty of variety and a faithful presentation. [August 2002, p.79]

    Packed full of features and modes, it's only a matter of time before the realization of doing the same thing over and over again hits you.

    [It's] no Mario or Crash, [but] it does have a unique take on the genre that plays well with kids and those of us who can't get enough of the old Warner Bros. cartoons.

    Not quite as impactful on PS2 as it was on Dreamcast. [July 2002, p.82]

    The game's characters look and seem very faithful to their television counterparts. Some corners were cut in terms of the gameplay, however, and the result is a kart racer that isn't quite as solid as the best that the genre has to offer.

    Offers nothing to improve upon past greats in the genre.

    The linear track design and lack of depth leads to a somewhat boring kart racer that will mainly appeal to young gamers or Looney Tunes fanatics.

    I just couldn't help but get bored as I raced through the "Looniverse" - the game's simple straightforward tracks get tedious after the first couple of races. [August 2002, p.130]

    Proves that cel-shading rocks for some games. If only gameplay rocked, too. [August 2002, p.110]

    A pretty good kart game, as on the PS2 there are not so many, one of the best. It's not mario though, what means: tracks could have beenA pretty good kart game, as on the PS2 there are not so many, one of the best. It's not mario though, what means: tracks could have been designed better, the handling is okay but not excellent, the graphics are nice because cell shaded, but the tracks could look better. But for fans of the looney tunes and kart games, I recommend this funny cartoon drop-an-anvil-on-you-opponent-game!… Full Review »

    A game that's just wanting to be similar to the Sega Dreamcast, but failed in any way. Pick up the Dreamcast version of this game. It's better though.
