Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review:

In a nutshell:
Few kids films can be as well suited to video game immortalisation as Cars and just for once a movie license-in hasn’t just been used for a cheap cash-in. Think Ridge Racer, Jr. and there’s plenty to enjoy here for both adults and children.

The lowdown:
When you’ve got a movie populated solely by talking cars it at least means there’s no need to turn the game into yet another third person platformer. Instead you take the role of stock car Lightning McQueen in what is actually a sequel to the movie’s plot, as he works his way up the racing leagues. Whether there’s someone driving Lightning or not he still handles like any other arcade racer, complete with a handy powerslide. The artificial intelligence of the other cars can seem a bit too willing to let you win in the early stages but there are separate kids and adults modes to ensure all ages get a decent challenge.

Most exciting moment:
Although it’s not quite Grand Theft Auto the game features a surprisingly large game world for you to explore, with wide open canyons and towns filled with tons of side quests and mini-games to ignore or enjoy as you please.

Since you ask:
Almost the entire voicecast of the movie reprise their roles, recording original dialogue just for the game. This includes Owen Wilson and, in his first ever role in a video game, the legendary Paul Newman.

The bottom line:
One of the best movie tie-ins for a while and a decent little racer.
HARRISON DENT

5.0 out of 5 stars Great pc game, 3 Feb 2007
By JElliott (Leicester) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I brought this for my 5 year old son just after christmas and he thinks its fab.He has most of the cars and toys about the film but he always comes home from school to play this on his dad's laptop.It is a bit hard to unlock some games for a 5 year old so his dad help's out a bit when he's gone to bed.It is by far the best PC game he has and I would say that any child that loves the movie will also love this too.

Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 
The game will not run on my new computer. It requires a certain level of graphics card which is not found on even brand new computers. Amazon do not tell you this beforehand. Be careful of what you buy.

1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't work on Intel Macs!, 23 Nov 2008

Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 
I bought this for my MacBook Pro, downloaded the Universal Binary updater and no dice - asks for the Play disc but won't recognise this - contacted THQ (the publishers) and they stated they were aware of the fault but had no remedy and were not working on a fix, they suggested that I return it to the store for a refund - Appalling! Forget it if you are an Intel Mac owner as it will not work...

My 4 year old loves this game.
The "Cars" film endears itself so well to a video game that a simple racing game was bound to result. Read more
