i love super bombad racing. everybody in it is so cute, too. its fun because it is not so hard its annoying, it has great graphics, and all the courses are really cool. i also like the special items like the goo that lady throws at you in mos espa. if you like star wars, mario kart, and people with really, really big heads, you,ll love super bombad racing.

Fun for all!

This game is a lot of fun! There is also a ton of secret stuff in the game to unlock.

Great concept ruined!

Luckily, I rented this before deciding whether or not to buy. And boy am I lucky that I tried it before dropping $50 for it.

Well, everyone knows about the concept and cool graphics and all. The game suffered no slow down even with multi-tap on. But after playing for a short time, I realized how bad this game is. The controls are difficult, the power-ups are useless in a race (you need to use shortcuts to win). And worse, the carts move way too slow. The fun of any cart racing (ala Mario Kart or even Rumble Racing ) is that it's fast. This game felt like I was moving at snail pace.

I wish that they would put Mario Kart on PS2 (though never happen) or someone come up with a true kart game. The closest out right now is Rumble Racing which is definitely worth the look if you're looking for cart racing type game.

Super Bombad Racing for the Playsattion 2 is a incredibly good game. It`s graphics are really bad though. All the tracks are confusing at first, but when you play a few times, it gets better and better. You get to pick form 8 caracthers. There is also a secret caracther who you will race to unlock. This game is also a big headed cart racing game. You should buy it.

What the?

I to was looking forward to this game coming since I am a big fan of Mario Cart. Star Wars Bombard racing is a big dissapointment. The graphics are not that good. The background music, if you can call it music, is so annoying. The race tracks are uninspiring. I have only had it for about 4 days and I have allready offered to sell it to a friend. If you are a big fan of Mario Cart, pass on this game. If you are bored and have 50 dollars to burn buy the game.

Not What I Wanted

Super Mario Kart tended to dominate the N64 as the best multiplayer game. So I've been waiting and watching the kart racing games for the PS2 hoping to find one that will give the same level of fun. Unfortunately, Super Bombad Racer falls short.

Remember that kart-racing games are suppose to be fun and childish, so the cartoonish characters with large heads and silly taunts are up the right alley. The large number of special items (forward weapons, backward weapons, boosts, shields, etc.) adds a good level of playability to the game, unfortunately with a bunch of racers everyone is shooting everyone all the time and there's no real strategy involved.

The controls for the game are also very loose. It takes a lot of getting used to as you bounce all over the place and can't make the tight turns you'd like to. The levels are relatively simple and there's not a lot you can do to improve your racing ability on them.

You'll probably play through all 9 nine of the levels in about an hour and then wonder what you're suppose to do. The game quickly looses its enjoyment in single player mode. Luckily there's multi-player mode to come to the rescue and this game is good fun with a bunch of people. Still, I've found after running through the levels a couple times with friends, there's just not a lot of joy to it.

Even battle mode has issues. With so many hit-you-from-across-the-screen-automatically weapons there isn't much skill required. You just need to know where on the level the good weapons can be found and hope your opponents don't. And on some levels, Yoda-who can damage everyone with his special item-can just sit out of the way and slowly take everyone out.

Overall, this is a fun game for a little while, but is likely to sit on your shelf except when you have friends over. It's probably better to save your money and wait for that great kart-racing game to come out for the PS2.

I've never played a Star Wars game I didn't like... Until now. This game was horrible!! The controls were wacky, the graphics were choppy, and the soundtrack was no good. Watch out for this one!!

Worst game ever!!

This is by far THE worst game I have ever played on any system. I don't see how anyone could think this game is fun. The graphics are not good, the map would be better off not even there, and the glitches in the game should not even be an issue...but they are, besides the fact that the game freezes up, running into objects is annoying enough to make you want to snap your controller in half. Please don't anyone buy this game, and hope that they don't try to waste anyone's time with a sequel.
