    Can we honestly expect MySims Racing to become some sort of darling? Probably not. Everyone knows Mario Kart's all over it. But that doesn't mean that you shouldn't give it a whirl.

    Features such as charming humor, likable characters, a soft, clean look and car customization options give the experience a personal touch.

    MySims Racing might not be the top kart racer on the Wii, but it’s deep customization and solid racing definitely make it worth a look. If you’ve played out Mario Kart and are looking for something that offers similar solid mechanics with a little more flair for customization, you can’t go wrong here.

    By no means bad, but less than we'd expect from the MySims 'franchise'. Limps home a distant second place to the real thing. [Aug 2009, p.67]

    It's cute, but it's just not the best kart racer on the console. Hell, it might not even be the second best one. For die-hard fans of the MySims series, if any exist, the game is likely worth checking out, but for everyone else it doesn't have enough replayability to justify a purchase.

    MySims Racing is a perfectly adequate kart racer that plays it far too safe in a genre that is associated with thrills and spills. While the car customization is a positive step forward, the courses, power-ups, and play modes don't do anything substantially new or exciting.

    The Sims Racing passes the theory test, but fail the driving test instead. There's really no point in playing this when there are games like Mario Kart around.

The best part is the same cute art style seen in other MySims games. But that can only get you so far with a bad Mario Kart ripoff with bad controls even while using the more traditional Classic Controller. Overall if you want a racing game for Wii get Mario Kart Wii and if you want a MySims game for Wii get MySims. Don’t try killing two birds with one stone.… Expand
