I think “Lightning Strikes Back” is my favourite mini game because it really captures how McQueen has changed as a character, going out of his way to go on the interstate to track the delinquent road hazards down because they messed with one of friends, and I honestly think it’s one of the few times we’ve seen him really pissed off, and the music in the minigame reflects that as well.

One of the best Pixar films EVER MADE, in me opinion👍👍👍 First watch when i was 6 in 2007, I love all the characters, especially Mater and the Fabolous Hudson Hornet (in the Danish version Chick Hicks was actually voiced by Mads Mikkelsen!). I've also met Jorgen Klubien (Danish animator and lead singer of Danseorkestret, who have worked for Disney and Bluth), who was one of the writers behind the film, he actually came up with the original idea of an electric yellow blue car, before it evolved into our favorite hotshot red Chevrolet (I think Lightning is a Corvette C6, anyway that's his closest resemblance irl, he also asks Sally at one point if she fell in love with a Corvette, which hints a little towards this). Jorgen also made a silhouette picture of me, as he had a silhouette papercut shop in Tivoli (old and well-loved Danish amusement park in Copenhagen) back in 2019. He's a very underrated artist, if it weren't for him, Joe Ranft and the others, the films probably wouldn't exist. What a talent he is... I also think Cars 2 is very underrated, even though it's a very different and darker movie from the first, it contains a lot of comedy and great Bond references for a Bond fan like me

Hey folks, a couple things I forgot to add in my section, I kept if brief as I didn’t want to make this already long video, even longer. Here’s some details I neglected; Story is essentially the same as the console counterpart, just with select side characters neglected. Nothing really interesting to discuss there. The environment sucks. As you noticed, outside of piston cup races, there’s only one biome type. DESERT. Nothing in the beautiful woods of Tailfin Pass. The tracks also all look identical aside from the shape of the road. Lastly, for those of you wondering about the DS version…………… Don’t. It’s a mini-game compilation. I also want to say, I love the console version. My thoughts on it are pretty much the same as everyone else’s here. Simply a superb experience. Oh crap, I just remembered being an American, nobody in other countries can actually play NASCAR games. They don’t exist there. RIP. Thanks again for having me here Luke!

as I guy who probably spent the most amount of time playing this game i'd like to say that this is a really good review. Like, actually good. Can't really say anything bad about it beside the fact that Cars TVG has a pretty unique physics and glitches around them (and not only) that make it kind of a sandbox game. It's really fun to mess around with physics glitches like double jump, powerslide boosting, tilt sliding and other wacky things. In a speedrun u, especially 100% u can collect postcards in such a unique way it never gets old. Same with wacky stuff in mini-games like the tractor tipping jump and etc. Probs one of the things I'd like to mention is that compared to other cars games the world does not feel flat. This is the thing I hated in MN and ROR (in some parts), but in TVG it's just a good world u know? Also, fun fact: the world was originally planned to be merged with Radiator Spring and Ornament Valley being one area (and that's why OV feels so stale), but the scrapped that idea probably cuz of ps2 or smt, I don't really know. The source of it is that: 1. they share the same scene in games files (RS scene files contains OV scene files inside of it); 2. if u drive in RS to the cliff postcards and look to the OV u will see that there're postcards located in unloaded area, in the same places as if you were in OV. U can grab them (from the RS) and they will not appear in OV's real area if u check their placement after getting them. Anyways good review! Thanks for covering literally the smallest parts of the game :D

Simply phenomenal video 👏 one of the best I’ve seen for this game, as a Cars fan I love this game to death, and seeing coverage of it on KZbin is always a treat, this is easily one of the most comprehensive looks into the game, even covering the different versions of it (X360’s the best don’t @ me) and you know what, this game deserves it, the effort that was put into this game cannot be denied, and the least we could do is acknowledge that effort, they rarely if even cut corners with it at all, especially in a market like licensed kid movie tie-ins where phoning it in is the norm, games like this one showcase that licensed games could be great videogames in their own right, but also make for PHENOMENAL complimentary content for the source material, I was both surprised and delighted to learn new things about the game that I actually hadn’t known about before, so well done on your research for this! Although one thing I’d note is that the CHMPION cheat not only gives you the option of Champion difficulty for the arcade mode, but also amps up the difficulty for the story mode as well, don’t blame you for not knowing that though, it’s pretty hidden, aside from that, I loved the video (as you can probably tell by how long this comment is lol) great job Luke, you outdid yourself once again!

The Cars video games were a lot of fun to play. For a Pixar movie that is all about cars racing, it is translated perfectly into the video game medium. I used to play 3 cars game growing up, Cars on both the GameCube & Wii, Cars Race-O-Rama (which i liked even better), and Cars 2 (which I didn’t think it’s as good as the previous Cars games). As a kid, I’d played both Cars & Race O Rama religiously as I’m very determined to beat both games, which I did. I’d completed both games a couple times from my sheer determination to win in many races and mini games in the process of the story. And unlocking two other maps, Ornament Valley and Tailfin Pass. I was a plucky kid. My favourite part is that I can explore an open world of Cars by driving around Radiator Springs, Tailfin Pass, and Ornament Valley to see the sights and scenic locations, bump into other cars for fun to pretend I crash into one, and see some hidden discoveries throughout the game. And you and I do have something in common Luke, the Cars movie was also my first movie that I’d ever saw in cinemas growing up. My very first time going to the cinemas/movie theatre back in 2006 blew my 5 year old mind away, it really was a blast seeing a movie like that on a giant screen in the auditorium room. Pretty soon, my mom had got it on dvd for me and I watched it over and over again. I also watched some of Mater’s Tall Tales shorts on the Disney Channel. And yes, just like with Thomas how it was the springboard for my interest in trains, Cars was the springboard for my interest in NASCAR and other car races like Formula 1 or Grand Prix racing. Even The Fast & Furious & Talladega Nights: Ballad Of Ricky Bobby movies had contributed my interest into race cars. I used to watch NASCAR a lot with my dad back in the late 2000’s. The Cars movie help made race car races like NASCAR became popular for both the kids and adults. Looking back at this movie as an adult, Cars still means so much to me to this day. Both the 2006 movie and video game give me a good load of nostalgia and I’ll never forget. So Luke, as a fan of the Cars franchise, did you like NASCAR as well? Was it a fun Motorsport?

I kept coming back to the game, though. It was captivating to just drive around the world, doing donuts for 30 seconds. I loved it so much. It was FAR from my favourite Wii game (that would go to Mario kart Wii, but that’s a different story) but I still came back to it all the time, and I found the Wii channel music very funny.

I never got to play this version of the cars video game, rather the sequel to it (Mater-National). Similar in layout but a slightly different story (you’re basically building a racetrack in Radiator Springs to attract racers/fans from all over the world). I think it uses a very similar (if not the same) map for a lot of it, but overall as soon as I started playing it I fell in love with Cars. I would sneak down to the basement to play it whenever I could, sometimes competing with my siblings to see who’d be in control first. It was my childhood and seeing how thoroughly you went over the original made me remember all the fun memories playing the sequel.

They'll make toy versions of the most random, obscure background characters who you won't even notice and show up for like two seconds never to be seen again. I think at some point Mattel _did_ release a three pack of some of Mater's cousins, but that's essentially it.

Great video on the Cars 1 video game! It's super underrated like the first Cars movie and might be the best movie tie-in game alongside Goldeneye N64. I remember my dad renting the Wii port when I was 6 or 7 and due to the darn motion controls we were pretty bad at it, so we only played it for 5 minutes. It wasn't until last year when I got a preowned Xbox 360 that I replayed the X360 port in a new perspective after 11 years and I was rather impressed with it. I enjoyed the open world feel it had even if the game took place mainly in a vast desert. After playing the Cars 2 game and Cars 3: Driven to Win, I enjoyed both of them, the first Cars game is still the best (while the latter two felt more like Twisted Metal wannabes).

What a brilliant review, I used to own the GB version of the game but I just currently use the PS2 Version. May even play this on Monday.

I’m sure the majority of us Cars people can quote every scene. Even Unlucky Tug has reached those levels.

This game brings so many memories back to me. So much fun it brought, but there was one thing that always bothered me that Cars 2 and Cars 3 Driven to Win did better……The way you jump. Flicking the joystick or D-pad up and down kinda annoyed me, like come on why do that when you could’ve at least map it to a button like those latter games did or just click down on the joystick? Especially when I try to do it, it just doesn’t register in all the time, leading to moments where I try to jump to take a shortcut, my character doesn’t jump and just slams into a wall or the small bump that for some reason I discovered I was able to clear without jumping whatsoever. Nowadays I’ve gotten over it….but little kid me….got pretty frustrated when it came to…*Sarge’s Boot Camp.* I hated that because I never knew the jumping was a thing, and trying to understand when to time it on those training courses, AND beat all the tracks under the time limit, I was about ready to fling my 360 controller across the room.

I LOVE this game. I am still obsessed with the soundtrack. “What I Want” by Autopilot Off is still deep in my heart. I’m so happy that someone finally made this type of video about this game

this game was my childhood, it still influences me to this day, I'd have so much to write about it, I could write a whole book, maybe even several, it's literally been such an important thing in my life, I love it so much and it's still the world I'm mentally in, radiator springs is my home, and it will forever be. I hold it dear to my heart, and I'll probably never let it go

Man me and my brother have some good memories with cars. Saw it in theaters,got the game,collected the toys. A core memory is my brother throwing my die cast “Boost” (my favorite one) and it cracking my head opened,I’ve cracked it like 2 or 3 times before. The wing got stuck in my head,funny hospital visit tbh

I find it hilarious that a game adaptation of a movie is more of a game and less of a movie than the average “game” today

I had a video idea to cover this game in fine detail to the passion poured into this game, but you nailed this. I see no need to do that now. Very well structured video covering the unique history of this game!
@scottvogel84776 ай бұрын
First off I hope this gets tractions cause while I love your Thomas stuff. The passion you bring to other media is great. Second I just love how much love was put into this game. Like even some of the scenes you showed made me laugh, cry, and just feels things. Which proof of really good art.

A remaster of this with proper graphics would look so good.
