    And like Mario Kart Wii, Cars 2 is at its best when you're playing with pals. [July 2011, p.89]
  3. There have been far worse movie tie-ins in the past. [Sept 2011, p.92]

    It isn't an amazing adaptation, but Avalanche Software made it all work, creating a video game that fans of the movie and the Cars franchise as a whole can enjoy. What the title manages to achieve is enough to forgive some of its shortcomings.

  1. It is, obviously, nowhere as superior as the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 version in terms of graphics, but it still delivers fun, explosive gameplay. Following a bit of a different storyline than the movie, Cars 2 has various playable characters, various game modes, and really cool multiplayer. One day a friend came over, and we decided to play the multiplayer. And, yeah, it was great! We spent so much time trying to blow each other up with different gadgets and weapons. Although, the game does eventually get old. But, it takes time. In the end, it receives an 8 from me. Expand
