    "Cars 2: The Video Game" is fun and has nice graphics, but ranks far below other racing classics like Mario Kart. The game has various and cool characters from the film, and has great multiplayer races. Although its not as fun and interesting with the characters, the game is at least worthy for a look at and a try.

    It is, obviously, nowhere as superior as the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 version in terms of graphics, but it still delivers fun, explosive gameplay. Following a bit of a different storyline than the movie, Cars 2 has various playable characters, various game modes, and really cool multiplayer. One day a friend came over, and we decided to play the multiplayer. And, yeah, it was great!

Although, the game does eventually get old. But, it takes time. In the end, it receives an 8 from me. Expand

    The gameplay is pretty solid but the graphics look like ASS! Couldn't have they done with the graphics. My eyes want to bleed looking at this game. But the gameplay is solid and fun and that's what matters the most.

    For fans looking to extend their experience to other levels, it may even be worth it but otherwise there are better games out there for this purpose.

    There have been far worse movie tie-ins in the past. [Sept 2011, p.92]

    The game certainly isn't perfect– the backgrounds are forgettable, and the game oscillates too readily between being a pushover and cheating badly– but it does better than most games of its ilk and is worth a look for curious young gamers.
