Smash Cars is ultimately an underwhelming experience. The game looks good and is simple to play but there is nothing exciting or innovative about the title.
-
Smash Cars can be a fun fuelled RC racer at times, but its basic nature, severe lack of content and a stark price tag ultimately let it down.
-
Racing these speedy little cars can be fun, but Smash Cars is disappointingly light on content.
-
For the few hours it will keep you busy, Smash Cars is a fun and slightly different arcade-style RC racer. Downloadable games don't necessarily have to be short and simple, and for the price, Smash Cars is over a little too quickly.
-
Smash Cars can be pretty fun on a basic level, with good track design, responsive controls, a speedy framerate and lots of air to catch being the highlights. However, there isn't a whole lot of content to be found in the initial release as it's pretty clear that stuff was held back for future DLC.

-
Smash Cars on PSN is a solid and playable game but offers little more than all the other racing games out there. The lack och split screen and the neverending trick frenzy, that can be frustrating at times, make this game a mellow experience that is barely worth its price. Too bad, since it could have been against an adversary in the same couch.

PSM3 Magazine UKIt's a teeny Burnout! [Nov 2009, p.92]
-
A fun and very well-balanced game with great potential but it is let down by a repetitive stunt mechanic and a scarcity of content.
-
It’s obvious based on the menus within the game that Smash Cars will be further fleshed out with new DLC areas to race in, but at this point it feels paper thin.

Sep 4, 2021There is some fun to be had with this game, but overall Smash Cars is pretty lackluster.
