In a nutshell: The lowdown: Most exciting moment: Since you ask: The bottom line:
Few kids films can be as well suited to video game immortalisation as Cars and just for once a movie license-in hasnt just been used for a cheap cash-in. Think Ridge Racer, Jr. and theres plenty to enjoy here for both adults and children.
When youve got a movie populated solely by talking cars it at least means theres 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 movies plot, as he works his way up the racing leagues. Whether theres 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.
Although its 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.
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.
One of the best movie tie-ins for a while and a decent little racer.
