Critic Reviews

96 Da Gameboyz
With great cartoon graphics, excellent control, challenging AI and a ton of extras to open up, this game is a worthy addition to any Dreamcast owner's library of games.
92 GamerWeb Sega
Top-notch presentation, eye-popping graphics and phenomenal sound bytes make this the best "kiddie" title of the year!
90 DC Swirl
With much to unlock, loveable characters that many generations have grown up with, solid control and music that is very fitting, Infogrames couldn't have done this game much better.
90 Dreamcast HQ
I saw rendered worlds that looked almost hand-drawn in Looney Tunes cartoon fashion, with cel-rendered cartoon characters. In the end, add to that a solid and smooth framerate, and a great cartoon look. It's really like playing a Warner Bros Looney Tune.
90 Hot Games
Despite the rubber-band AI, this is still a fun, addictive kart racer.
90 IGN
I think what ultimately won me over on this game was the challenging AI. The computer opponents can be down right cheap at times; often it will seem like they will deliberately tag-team you.
88 Games Radar UK (Pre-2006)
It's the multiplayer mode that ultimately makes this well worth your pennies.
88 Daily Radar
Decent game mechanics placed within a historically precise recreation of the beloved Looney Tunes world makes it a good, solid racer worthy of the brand Acme.
80 CNET Gamecenter
Its combination of colorful, accurate cartoon-themed graphics and tight gameplay will have you hootin' and hollerin' all winter long.
80 Planet Dreamcast
This game features superb graphics, a great soundtrack, detailed environments, and good control. And while there are a few problems with enemy AI and cheap weaponry, there is still a lot of fun to be had with this title.
75 Happy Puppy
A revolutionary title, but terrible AI holds it back from being one of the best games of the year.
70 GameSpot
Massages the retinas quite well, but the cheap AI and random power-ups place an unwanted emphasis on luck instead of skill.
67 Game Revolution
Comes out just slightly better than your average ho-hum kart racer. It's got sweet graphics and the Looney Tunes, but not a much beyond that.
67 Core Magazine
Unfortunately, the solid graphics, intricate track construction, and fairly tight controls fail to overcome cheap AI and a poorly balanced weapons system, relegating LTSR to the rental bin for all but the most devoted 'toon fans.
