Disney•Pixar Cars 2: The Video Game

This game looks unfinished, big time! It has so many flaws that I can’t even know where to start. Gameplay is awful. The whole idea of the game is great (and it’s built on an awesome franchise) but it feels… slow. Really! It’s a SLOW car game, and not in a good way. I know it’s aimed for kids mostly (I actually play it with mine, the only reason I bought this thing) but yet, I cannot avoid yawning a couple of times once I get into a straight part of the circuit… soo slow.

Immersion is next to not existent. Sounds effect aren’t there (engine’s noise anyone?) Again: yawning. And I don’t want to even begin to talk about the scenarios. The tracks themselves are ok but… yet again, this is NOT FINISHED. One of the tracks has this big stands for spectators… and even though there are a couple of NPCs there it feels so EMPTY. Who would want to go and watch a boring slow race anyways?

What can I say about the 571B Banana Slicer that hasn’t already been said about the wheel, penicillin, or the iPhone…. this is one of the greatest inventions of all time. My husband and I would argue constantly over who had to cut the day’s banana slices. It’s one of those chores NO ONE wants to do! You know, the old “I spent the entire day rearing OUR children, maybe YOU can pitch in a little and cut these bananas?” and of course, “You think I have the energy to slave over your damn bananas? I worked a 12 hour shift just to come home to THIS?!” These are the things that can destroy an entire relationship. It got to the point where our children could sense the tension. The minute I heard our 6-year-old girl in her bedroom, re-enacting our daily banana fight with her Barbie dolls, I knew we had to make a change. That’s when I found the 571B Banana Slicer. Our marriage has never been healthier, AND we’ve even incorporated it into our lovemaking. THANKS 571B BANANA SLICER!

A really nice game. My kids like it and it has some simple modes (free flight, balloon pop) that even smaller children can play and have fun. The graphics are nice and the controls are good. The only thing that annoys me a bit is the limited and repeating phrases during races.

This game is fun, you get to play as most of the main characters from the Planes movie. Story mode is pretty neat, other modes available. My biggest complaint is the on screen prompts are generic buttons, only thing that differentiates them is color. So it’s hard to tell what controls what. Game settings are just device choice, ie gamepad or keyboard; no mapping available. Using my gamepad I was able to figure out the controls, but for keyboard, it’s almost impossible. Once controls are figured out, it’s a great game.
