The Hot Wheels World Race game is good, clean fun suitable for younger children. No death or killing, just lots of speed and fun stunts. Many different tracks and cars keep the game interesting. May be worth 5 stars but...

Fans of the Hot Wheels Highway 35 worldrace series will be a bit disappointed. Although 35 cars are available on the game and most match the Highway 35 set, not all cars are identical to Highway 35 cars. It was not me who noticed this but my very detail oriented 4 year old. Following a quick comparison with the cars in the set, it appears that the game disguises or changes all cars that originally are based on actual vehicles (like the Ford F-150, the 70 Roadrunner, the Pontiac, etc.).

Race 'til you're tired from hitting the brakes

I like this game as much as I can race in it. The more, the better.
And it just so happens that you can as much as you want.
My favorite car is the Ballistik, the starting car in the Roadbeasts line of cars. It has very little speed, but has a lot of grip and accel. It has very little boost, though.
My favorite track? The insanely hard Vapor City. You have to unlock it, but it's worth it. From the gravity-defying loops of terror to the jump that looks way down into the clouds, it's a masterpiece.
The game takes place on the Highway 35 circuit, and it has 35 cars(hence, the name)
It's an arcade game, don't get the wrong idea. And you don't have to be an arcade fan to enjoy it.
When it gets to Veteran, it gets harder.
Now, you're going to have to play the game to figure out the rest. I'd suggest you rent it first. But it's 5 stars - and worth the money.
Now go out to the store if you haven't.
See ya!

BE CAREFUL!!!

Make sure you have a newer version of PS2 or you cannot play this game!! My son got it for his b-day and our system (5 years old) could not play the game. You are supposed to send your system into Sony for an upgrade that you have to pay for.
Luckily, Toys R US was cool and gave us a credit instead.

this game is good but it could use some adjustments. for instance, some of the cars have been replaced with phonies. the boosting could be more like the movie. same details of the cars in the movie. an actual STORYLINE of the movie. cars could go 300 mph like in the movie. small cutscenes that come from the movie(like in star wars episode III the game). finally, all 35 cars and no phonies!!!
