    This game was actually an enjoyable experience, and I wasn't expecting much based on the reviews. This is quite different than Mario Kart, and much more challenging. While I do understand the frustrations of this this game maybe being too hard for some, I also enjoyed the challenge.

    The graphics still hold up today, and the there are plenty of races to keep you busy. I like the fact that there are different objectives to some races. Racing tracks with reversed controls, collecting trophies, trying to set lap times, etc. is a fun game for both kids and adults alike.    … Expand

    Loved this game found it to be the best Karting game on the 360 Console, for all of those complaining about it being a crappy Mario Kart clone just go play Mario Kart.

I know amazing they would include something like that, to me thats a much better way to take a corner then just drifting and getting a boost from it to boot.

    Simply put, F1 Race Stars is the kart racing equivalent of a self-help seminar, or of a powerpoint on learning real estate sales. Like those sorts of intellectual death marches, it frequently made me yawn while playing and the whole thing has a painful sense of inevitability to it-which at least draws a further comparison with the sport on which it places primary focus.
