Cars The Game For The Nintendo Wii Console

It seems as though each time a children's movie is released, an accompanying video game is released simultaneously to exploit the popularity of the movie, yet they tend to be buggy and rushed so that game play is generally unappealing and not the best video games to play. However, Cars the game for the Nintendo Wii platform is a bit different. Though it's geared towards younger gamers, this title provides some fun and challenging courses.

The story is directly borrowed from the film, and focuses on the up-and-coming stock car racer, Lightning McQueen. Lightning has an egocentric, as well as a naïve personality, and ends up steering himself into a bit of trouble in the small town of Radiator Springs. The Cars video game starts up right after the movie's plotline, and all the principal characters of the movie are included in the game. There's no doubt that younger players who enjoyed the movie will warm to the new lines and antics from Mater the tow truck, Lightning McQueen and Chick Hicks, Lightning's rival.

Of course, what drives the plot of this game is racing, and familiarizing yourself with the game's mechanics shouldn't take the average gamer too long. Driving is done from an easy-to-see angle, and the action is never very difficult to follow. The Wii game controller acts as a steering wheel so that gamers can hold it sideways with the D pad or directional pad under their left thumb. The gas, brakes and speed-booster buttons finish out the controls, while the Wii controller has a motion-sensitive tilt action which steers the car. Steering is fairly easy to master and even an inexperienced gamer should be cruising along with little to no trouble in a short amount of time.

In Cars the game, professional and off-road races are available, with the pro-circuit consisting of a NASCAR-style race. Players can bump other cars on their way to the winner's circle, while the pit stops provide quick mini-game diversions. The cartoon style of Cars Wii game brings the characters to the fore in fine form indeed. Exploration is key, as well as shortcuts, and the varied environments include mountainous and canyon tracks, and oval-style Piston Cup race circuits.

Disney Pixar's Cars the game for the Wii console, the company's third installment in the highly successful Cars video game series, has shipped to retail outlets in North America, for almost every game platform, including the Wii video gaming system. It is available at most stores at a suggested retail price of $40 and is rated E for Everyone.
