What the fuck is up with that? Is this because of Disney's localization fascism?

It's pretty bad...

Okay, let me rephrase that; it's *exactly* what you expect from a licensed movie game about cartoon car.

It's a sloppy, unispired racer with an equally uninspired "stealthy" mini-game. It all feels so 1995, it's sad. Considering the source material and capabilities of the machine it just looks "okay".

All and all, the Cars demo, much like the Eragon and Sonic demo has saved me money. Oddly enough, the Superman demo has actually made me think I'll pick it up. Go figure...
