  1. Quite funny game, if you look for some instant arcade-action with nice graphics and brutal soundtrack. The type of racing game I like!
  2. Superstars V8 Racing is a good game with a lot of detail for realism. There are enough races and cars available to entertain you for a while. However, due to the lack of game modes, the game doesn't achieve the status it could have reached.
  3. Only two months after releasing SBK 09 Milestone starts selling the next racing game – no wonder it feels a bit rushed. It rarely manages to come close to similar games like Race Driver: GRID. It's not a bad game, though, and good enough for a few laps at lunch break.
  4. The bottom line is, Superstars V8 Racing is an acceptable arcade-racer, it is not a simulation, even though it has a tendency towards this direction. Casual-gamers should get Race Driver GRID and professionals should do more laps with GTR 2 or Forza, until something better is coming along the way.
