    My son (9) loved this - and I have to admit to spending a little time racing his customised Lightening McQueen... This worth picking up for under 10's (and thier dads)!?

    This game is pretty mediocre. The racetracks are just like in a normal racing game like Gran Turismo. Uninteresting and boring to look at tracks. I could’nt even tell some of them apart! There was one track that is just literally just an oval. I recommend it to little kids and hardcore cars fans.

    This game is ok actually. Far from good, but it will entertain kids. I myself think the game is fine, but my little cousin adores this game. Its ok, i guess.

    Good game for kids and if you have ps now and you love the movies you might have fun with it as adult as well. (fun game for in between new releases) + Fun maps to explore with sceneries from the movie, multiple playable characters.

    - some questionable controls. - rubberbanding, shouldn't exist in racing games. Not for young or old audiences. Just make a descent AI. -

    - Guido's kart races are broken because of above reason and somehow the handling is all over the place for these races. (- Guido doesn't have his Italian voice-over :p)

    It is the very definition of an average game, and does nothing to pay homage to the original movie, merely taking up six times the shelf space it should and damning any of the current platforms to yet another throwaway licensed game that simply wasn't needed.
  2. Racing game of the year? Definitely not. A decent effort that will entertain kids and tide fans of the movie and original game over until Cars 2? Definitely.

    Cars is back and this new game is specifically for the youngest gamers. You can drive to Radiator Springs and do a lot of different racing challenges. The gameplay and audio are fine, but graphically it could have been better. This game is perfect for the little gamers.
