Customer Reviews for  'Cars'
 
Good game for your PSP library!
I got this game for my 5 year old and he was really good at it after a couple of hours. He really enjoyed it, he loves the graphics and the music and the commands are easy to learn and maneuver. There is clean competition, nothing a parent would squirm about, no violence or bad words. It's fun for adults too. After six weeks my son moved on to another game because he had played enough to get bored, I will add that he played it two or three times a week for less than two hours each time. It's not a boring game, by no means, but going around the track and beating the obstacles can only be fun for so long. He does goes back and plays it occasionally, overall it's a good addition to your PSP game library.
 
hmmmm, what was I thinking
I bought this for my PSP so that if I was traveling with the kids they could play it (as opposed to their leapster). Well it is too difficult for them, and for me as an adult it is my last choice. For a 8-12 year old, it is probably good, I just can't rate it high for myself or my kids.
 
Cars......"Get....real gone....!!!"
I, for the record, don't usually buy licensed games of movies that come out. For the most part, most of them are a waste of time & aren't worth the money that is spent on them. However, I've had a few exceptions in my time(if you've read any of my reviews before). At any rate, I recently watched "Cars" on DVD and was entertained by it. So, when I was out shopping, I come across Cars, the game, for the PSP at an exceptionally low price. The kid in me came out again, I guess, 'cause I ended up getting the game. I honestly wasn't expecting it to be worth much but I was pleasantly surprised that it ended up being the most 'entertaining' racer that I've played in awhile. Racing around familiar environments from the movie & hearing your favorites spout off all kinds of humor("Say--later 'mater..."), it was a real hoot. It's a perfect fit for those quick bursts of gameplay while commuting on a bus or traveling by cars & such. There are 15 playable 'Cars' in the game with only three available from the get-go as you make your way through over 25 races. Although it may be geared towards the younger set, older folks-like me-can get into it too. It might not be as deep as, say, Need for Speed or Ridge Racer but it's a solid racer...nonetheless.

There are, however, a couple of flaws in the game that hinder it from being a 'great' racer. First, the collision detection..it was really spotty at times with other cars as well as the environment. Second, while the game looked good on the PSP--it didn't look as good as the PSP is capable of. It looked more to me like a higher-rez Nintendo DS game, actually. Given, it's the gameplay that matters and this game has that in spades. Yet, I expected much more out of it. I could see the game looking this way if it were pushing as much code as Midnight Club 3:Dub Edition on the PSP but it isn't. Sad to say, even Midnight Club 3 looks a heck of a sight better than this game.

Beyond that, Cars for the PSP is a delightfully entertaining racer that will appeal to both young and old. Definitely worth a look if you love racing.
 
Terrific game
Both of my sons love this game and I am thrilled that it is appropriate for 7=9 year olds.
 
Cars is a good game
yep i agree. i was also surprised, this is a pretty solid race game. Fans are going to love it too. The Multiplayer is sweet. I give it an overall score of 9/10.
