Its a pretty good racing game, it adds a few new twists such as doing as many flips as possible on a jump, and instead of winning points or money, you get fans, lol.
Fun while it lasts but it gets a bit boring and repetetive after a while. One thing that does stand out are the graphics, we don't normally get that many racing games on the DS with good graphics, but in this game they're vibrant and colourful, the tracks are well designed and the backgrounds look pretty good, i'd give it 6/10
 
It has potential. It just reaks of shovelwareness... menu screen is just ugh.

And htf do you perform a successful Car-fu? The tutorial section is sh!t.

EDIT: anyone else think the drifting sounds like really bad quality mobile phone background recording noise?

You need to look up the term shovelware because even if it was a bit crap, its not shovelware. Compare it to most DS racers it has high production values.

For the sound was fine to be honest. As for the car-fu thing, its pretty simple. Top screen shows a bar and you either press the button it tells you too nearer to the centre than your opposition does. Its better to just take down an opponent without it though, just press X and you'll also get more fans in doing so.

Both already came out and came out quite well, you should check your sources with more caution next time.

Not sure anyone could convince me that film is going to be anything but dire, and the game is just...odd. Never have I played a driving game where I could drive so terribly but win! Better than I thought, but still - the dire sound and presentation kills me...

Consider sources checked and still satisfied with my opinions, ta.
 
Who cares about the menu

it's the actual game that counts. Presentation adds to it.

People just hate on this because it's a movie based game. If it's made by EA or it's a movie based game there's always that group that will hate just because.

the game is dope. I love it and I haven't touched another game since.

DS doesn't get a good games often. But THIS is a good game
 
Yeah this isn't such a bad game. It's just the presentation that puts me off. The reason I kept failing at car-fu was because I kept pressing the wrong button! I've been playing Xbox alot and forgot the X and Y buttons are opposite to each other on NDS and 360... tis strange and confusing.

Anyone know how to get a boost start?
