    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.

    Overall, Cars Race O Rama is simply another licensed game. There isn’t anything that will keep a hardcore gamer interested, however, the younger audience will probably love this title, especially if they are a fan of the movie.

    Cars Race-o-Rama makes fun for some hours, but not for much longer. The controls of the micro cars and monster trucks aren’t made for little children.

    Painfully familiar in a Dynasty Warriors style. [Jan 2010, p.86]

    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.

    Hope for a fresh star when Cars 2 hit theaters in 2011. [Holiday 2009, p.82]

    Dull, frustrating and deeply dated cash-in. [Jan 2010, p.113]

    I bought this for my grandson and it is fun (especially the sherriff chase). It is based on a kid's movie but the game is fast and fun.

The negative aspect is that it takes a long time to load between games.… Expand
