So a little inside info about this game, it was actually planed to be a tie in to Disney infinity, but because Disney infinity got scrapped in late 2016, they just decided to make it a standalone game and rushed its production
Makes sense as Disney were doing their newer tie-ins within Disney Infinity as there were playsets planned for stuff like Moana in addition to Cars 3 before Disney Interactive shuttered.... Also, that shuttering did briefly take Avalanche Software with it, but they later reopened under Warner Bros, who bought them from Disney. This game was simply a casualty of the Disney Interactive closure
this is absolutely wrong, the game was never supposed to be disney infinity 4.0, always was supposed to be a tie in to the movie and it wasnt like very rushed it had 2 years of development
A video game voice actor strike went on from October 2016 to November 2017. I have a strong guess that could be why most of the film's voice cast did not return.
I'm not even kidding, Darrell Cartrip's commentary can be quite repetitive, especially if in the battle races, in which you get hit by any weapon which triggers Darrell's reactions. (like rockets, rapid fire, oil spills and especially the spike strips) I mean sure, hearing Darrell Cartrip's commentaries and reactions during gameplay is fine, but honestly, whenever I hear Darrell Cartrip say "And folks, that's how it's done.", I could tell that I would just rage quit just to go to Thomasville Playground to get it out of my head. I mean honestly, Darrell's voice line "And folks, that's how it's done." could've been used for anything else like finishing races and any mode you play on, and he's just there to 'annoy you', (even though he can be entertaining) so this is plain silly.
@@JmarcusKmart12if we count the games as "lore" he retired from the piston cup to start his driving academy in ROR, (i am going out on a limb here), but sometime after cars 2 but before cars 3, he became the presenter of the Raceing sports network.
Personally I don’t think that Driven to Win is awful or even mediocre. I actually think it’s pretty decent and I enjoy playing it at least. Thematically it’s good. Voice actor and plot-wise though, it is unsatisfying as heck. It should’ve at least had more characters that could’ve been great for the game, and the ending is very lazy. Though tbf, Avalanche did lose a lot of money especially when working on this game, and although a ton of the voice actors did bad jobs, AJ Hamilton actually does a great job voicing Jackson Storm, and I’ll even go as far as saying he’s MILES Better than Armie Hammer (Armie is a Terrible person btw), though compared to Race o Rama doesn’t have as much of a simple plot that’s easy to understand. With Race o Rama we know what to do for the entire game, beat Chick Hicks and his cronies, but here, it’s just “Oh Jackson wants a rematch, so just keep racing until you get to race him” and I think it could’ve been a lot better than that personally. (Also one more thing, ROR is actually my favorite Video Game, I respect your opinion) Overall Cars 3 Driven to Win is not bad, but it is by far my least favorite out of the video games.
Yes I'm glad Armie Hammer wasn't voicing him again, dude is not a good guy :/ In hindsight, ROR is actually a good time and it's super cool that it's your favourite:)
This game literally makes Garfield Cart look like a f---ing MASTERPIECE. And that game was published by the notorious GameMill Entertainment, so that's saying something
i think the devs where too lazy to make an based on the plot of the movie for an cars 3 video game and they just reused the engine the mods from the thier previous cars game cars 2 tvg
You know one thing I hate about most racing game "kart-racer" parodies? Speed. They're all. Slow. Maybe it's just me coming from a drug trip of sonic games in my life... but why aren't these racing games as fast as sonic games like Sonic Unleashed? It's Lightnig McQueen, not Raincloud McMuffin. It's Tow Mater, not Slow Waiter. Driven to Win, not Drivel for Tim. Bring on the speed game devs! PS: Great to see the channel gaining views in such short time! Proud of you my man!
What's even funnier is that it's literally just cars 2 the video game, which is an actual decent game Crazy how a port of driven to win was squeezed out onto the ps3
Cars 3 isn't that BAD, it was just rushed and the new tracks aren't as exciting. Thomasville mines is A Genuinely challenging track, and it's like a revamped version of cars 2 the video game Which i LOVE
Honestly the more I look at it, they probably could have gotten away with just making this Cars 2 DLC, that would have absolutely fixed the problems with the voice acting and lack of content
This game coming out on the PS3, 360 and Wii U in 2017 is insane. The Wii U was superseded by the Switch at this point and the 360/PS3 were literally over a decade old at that point. I find it very interesting that they even bothered to release this game on those consoles. I guess they did it just because they could. The only active home console at the time the game didn’t come out on was the original Wii.
The only Cars games I’ve ever played were this and Maternational. I loved Maternational, so when I got this game, I was actually blown away by good it was! I still like this game a lot, especially since it’s based on my favorite entry in the series!
4:01 that's actually a preety common control scheme, you can see ZR to accelerate in basically every game BUT Mario Kart, and the A button to drift can be found on GRID Autosport and WRC Gennerations, though i've seen it more attached to Y
As a huge fan of Cars and movie tie-in games...I'm just surprised this game exists at all. Given that movie tie-ins nearly completely stopped after like 2011. I think it's clear this only exists because they didn't have to do a lot of work just reusing so much from Cars 2. Even though Race O Rama wasnt the greatest game ever, I still loved it and part of that was cause I could appreciate the details and references and whatnot. Cars 3 wasn't even worth playing...like I still want a resurgence of movie tie-in games but like, not necessarily if they're just going to hardly be a step up from mobile games.
Personally speaking, I'd think Driven to Win was... decent at best and very underwhelming at worst, especially when comparing to Cars 2. For every step forward, being the visuals and customizations, it takes two steps back with the lack of track and mode varieties and ESPECIALLY its roster. And it pains me more since this could've been a perfect opportunity to add DLC for additional characters, but... nothing ever came to be
I don’t really think this game is particularly bad, though it does amount to reskin of Cars 2. It can be enjoyable, at least for me. I find blowing up the other cars in the battle race mode pretty entertaining, as well as finding out of bounds glitches. On the topic of glitches, I believe the switch version is much buggier than the others, as like all but two of the bugs listed on the wiki are on the switch version. It can also be cool going slow on the tracks, and exploring the small details which you would normally zip past. I’m quite passionate about this game, and have found my fair share of bugs and glitches. I’ve played mater-national, and it is definitely better than dtw, but I wouldn’t really call dtw bad.
I used to play this game a lot through the late 2010s on my Xbox, and looking back, this game wasn’t as fun as I thought. There isn’t much to do in it that’s actually fun. It’s quite limited in tracks and characters, it doesn’t have online multiplayer. After playing the Cars 2 video game, I will say it’s better than this. There’s some stuff that actually keeps me entertained for an increased time period, there’s more character options, and there’s actually online multiplayer. Last time I played Cars 3, I wasn’t really that entertained.
I'll give this game one bright side at least. Cruz's voice in this game is a little more better then Voice actress in the Films. But this game is still terrible in my opinion. I can tell that Keith Ferguson was indeed better at voicing lightning then the voice we got in this game.
IMO Xbox (specifically 360) is the best to play. It made it easy (for me anyway) for 11 year old me. And I wouldn’t let the Darrell lines get to me. And it still doesn’t. Also… before I say it, I am aware that there names are in the game when you’re let’s say “setting them up” to play. The Green Car is Brick Yardley. He only has a single line of dialogue in Cars 3 The Purple Car is Bobby Swift. He only has a few lines in the film. The Pink Car is Rich Mixon The Blue Car is Cam Spinner (both don’t have lines in the film itself) (No, I swear to god I didn’t look these up, you’re talking to an actual Pixar Cars fan, and maybe a Pixar Cars Nerd hahahah)
I haven't played any of this game before, but especially from the beginning cutscene it feels like they're little RC cars with the way they look, and it looks like they're driving not even 30mph.
At least with Cars TVG, you could tell they had at least a little bit of passion when developing that game. They worked extensively with Pixar during the development to make sure the game _felt_ like Cars, in terms of the setting, environment and characters. They even went through the effort to get all of the original voice actors. All things considered, that's a lot of dedication for a licensed movie tie-in video game. This game just lacks any of that soul that makes the first Cars video game a decent game adaptation. I don't reckon I'd enjoy this game all that much if I grew up with it as a child. Yeah yeah, here I am defending *_CARS..._* but waddya gonna do?
What WB games should have done when developing the game is have it handled by incinerator studios like THQ did before they went bankrupt and rebranded, hired some of the old devs that made those games, as I think it would have been in my opinion a return to form and maybe even would have been built off of Race-O-Rama, but add newer hub worlds like Thomasville, Fireball Beach, thunder hollow, and even Florida? With the other hub worlds from Race-O-Rama returning, but my ideas could be a tad ambitious for Disney to understand…
I like this game, even 100%'ed it down to the 1 lap time attack times, it's a fun game but Cars 2 has more content then this game, that being said, it does bring back some Cars 2 tracks so that's neat, those tracks brought me back to when I played Cars 2 when I was around 8-9 years old.
Good or bad, one thing remains true: the CPU can actually kick your ass in the hardest difficulty, so someone definitely thought that adults could also take the bait.. However, I bought the game digitally for less than 5€... And there are worse games to waste 5€ on, I'll give Cars 3 that. I don't think it's horrible, it's just average, like pretty much the rest of the Cars games. Do I think it's the best one? Eh, hard to tell. I'm not the biggest fan of the cars racing like they're going at 30 mph, but there's things in there to keep people entertained, and while I haven't tried multiplayer yet, maybe there's some redeeming there. Overall, it's fine if you find it at like 90% discount on the eShop. But at that point you can make a better decision by checking if W.M.D. also has a discount by then and go for it, or buy Super Woden GP.
I mostly remember Cars for the driving mechanic, it was like Need for Speed at the time with a few simplistic and cartoonic twists that made the driving feel unique enough to stand out on its own. I didn't like Cars 2 as much because they practically switched from cartoon-sim driving style to "Mario Kart with energy boost". It was okay, but could've been better. By the time Cars 3 rolled around, I was already dried from Kart clones, the brake-to-drifters trend, and sim tryhards. There was no in between (IE: Cars 1, Blur, Flatout, or even Midnight Club), and I was pretty disappointed when Cars 3 didn't return to Cars 1's style just like the film did.
@@KLEJGaming I ended up getting it and I’m having a lot of fun with it, my only issues so far are McQueen’s voice and the hard difficulty is kind of unfair, it’s hard to keep up with everyone lol
@@xxroyalprincexx6811 Nah I remember liking it when I watched it, I wasn't the biggest fan but I thought it was good! I was a kid when the first movie came out, and 11 when cars 2 released so by the time 3 came along I was in my late teens and wasn't as interested I'm sure when I get around to rewatching it I'll enjoy it more
Funny story: me and a friend were at a camp when we were younger, and we had 2 options on video games: the wii, or the Xbox. We played the Xbox, and decided on cars 3. Over the next couple of days we beat it and we did enjoy It a bit. Then we played cars 2 for the wii and thought it was way better
@@KLEJGaming There is a solid benefit to it though in that it has a deceptively active modding community, I would definitely shoot to get it on PC if you find it on sale at the very least if you really want to take a deep d(r)ive into Cars 1/2 mods, because they're surprisingly good!
this game isn't all that bad and its not the worst in the series much less the worst on any of the modern platforms. To be fair you COULD pick far worse even without going into random indie games, gotta give it credit for that much at least despite all its flaws
@@KLEJGaming needs more credit than that, its enjoyable too, more than a lot of other random games on the system you could pick. Its a disappointment to the series fine. But if you really want to see games as bad as you claim you have to dig down to the bottom of the barrel on the system
im gonna make a bold claim and say cars mater national is kinda worst then cars 3.now before anyone attacks i thought this game was better back when i was younger but when i play it recently i notice its flaws more.frankly the track dont work with the physics mainly canyon run and inside the turkey.play those tracks and youll see what i mean.not saying cars 3 is way better then this but i feel like mater national should be look at before we claim this is the worst cars game.
@@KLEJGaming alr almost forgot there mods for cars mater National that let you play cars 1 tracks. You should check out cars legends or cars superdrive. Can't wait to see the video on cars 2
This game was quite fun when I played it on Wii U a few years ago, got a copy cheap and I thought it was a pretty fun racer, I’d imagine a kid who was a big fan of the movie would have lots of fun with it
You see Cars 3 isn't bad I will say the problem is you should have got it on the switch you should have caught it on Xbox or Playstation probably would have enjoyed it a little bit better but I respect your opinion😅
Damn fr? I really enjoy it and think it looks pretty decent for a switch port, I’ve got a lot of hours in it playing with friends. The boost and trick system is really fun and for me makes up for the lack of diverse maps and the stock sounding music.
This port is a port of the 360 and PS3 ports of the game witch is why it looks so bad. I understand it would be easier to port over the last gen port but just cuz it is easier does not mean you should do it
I personally thought this was better than Cars 2 because they removed the stupid battery game mode, they added the stunt game mode which is so fun to play and they made the takedown from Cars 2 a whole lot better!! I kinda wish it had some of the co-op only game modes from Cars 2 and a bigger roster like Cars 2 (maybe even import some over from Cars 2 like ESPECIALLY Luigi, Sarge and Filmore! Wish they also made Doc playable aswell) but I feel the positives more than out way the negatives
this looks a lot like the cars 2 game even the mechanic looks like a direct copy from the wii but from what ive heard from ur saying it feels like a downgrade from that
Woah woah woah If you watched them all the way through I actually enjoy some of those DS and PSP games Cars 1 PSP is great and Cars Mater-national on DS is also great
I definitely don’t disagree with you this game was pretty much mad and it was so familiar towards the gameplay of cars 2, but let’s just be honest it was both the movie and the game was equally terrible
You did said the game was released on Xbox Series X/S and PS5, but it's not true as the game came out in 2017, and both consoles came out 3 years later in 2020, although it can be played on both VIA backwards Compability.
okay.. I’ll admit when I was like 11 when I got the game for my birthday, I enjoyed it.. but looking at it now- yeah cars 2 takes the spot with it- the VA was low budget, and they could have done better with the roaster. but don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying it terrible myself- but we could all probably agree it could have been better like with Race O Rama and Cars 2.
I'm surprised you didn't even mention once the biggest problem with this game: It's SLOW AS FUCK! Seriously, this is a racing game, even if it's aimed toward mostly children. And it's not just any franchise we're talking about, it's Cars! It's like Sonic but on four wheels: the first thing that comes to mind when you think about it is speed. They had no business making the game so slow. Idk if it's the cars that are tiny or the roads that are hell'a wide but either way the result is some sluggish go-kart racing gameplay that wouldn't pose a challenge even if you were utterly wasted. The only thing it does fast is putting you to sleep. Who needs sedatives when you can just play five minutes of this game?
I dont think this games is the worst, i think the worst cars came is race o rama for the DS. I think also that this game is realy fun. Like think this game is a pye if you finish this "pye"(game) in one at once you Will not enjoy the last slices of the pye. And also inviting your friends tô eat the pye is realy fun. I think if you play this game slowly the game beturns enjoable. And the ting is the swich vergion is terible like play on the ps4 vergion that never gets frame drops and the graffics are in The qualety of the second 2 textures and lighting. Man you can apreciate more the car models. And for Last for other langueges like portuguese Brazil every car hás his original voice actor. And explaning chick ricks being the TV show host, because in The 3 movie his is a TV show host. And one more thing i got to agree whit you at first glance the game controls are over welming, but after playing a litle bit you Will get the hang of it and you Will have fun while playing. Só i think cars driver to race is a underated game
It's good you were able to enjoy it! I'm sure given time I'd probably appreciate it a bit more too :) You're right though the PS4 version will definitely be better.
Okay here’s the thing I don’t mind the game I had fun but gosh I wish we could’ve played as doc I understand why because Paul newman (rest In Peace) but if you have his crew playable might as well add him honestly but that’s just me though 🤷♂️

What WB games should have done when developing the game is have it handled by incinerator studios like THQ did before they went bankrupt and rebranded, hired some of the old devs that made those games, as I think it would have been in my opinion a return to form and maybe even would have been built off of Race-O-Rama, but add newer hub worlds like Thomasville, Fireball Beach, thunder hollow, and even Florida? With the other hub worlds from Race-O-Rama returning, but my ideas could be a tad ambitious for Disney to understand…
I think most people's ideas are too ambitious for Disney to understand 😂🥲
@@KLEJGaming probably...
This is a masterpiece compared to the pc version of cars 2
I don't even wanna know 😂
I like this game, even 100%'ed it down to the 1 lap time attack times, it's a fun game but Cars 2 has more content then this game, that being said, it does bring back some Cars 2 tracks so that's neat, those tracks brought me back to when I played Cars 2 when I was around 8-9 years old.
Good or bad, one thing remains true: the CPU can actually kick your ass in the hardest difficulty, so someone definitely thought that adults could also take the bait..
However, I bought the game digitally for less than 5€... And there are worse games to waste 5€ on, I'll give Cars 3 that. I don't think it's horrible, it's just average, like pretty much the rest of the Cars games. Do I think it's the best one? Eh, hard to tell. I'm not the biggest fan of the cars racing like they're going at 30 mph, but there's things in there to keep people entertained, and while I haven't tried multiplayer yet, maybe there's some redeeming there.
Overall, it's fine if you find it at like 90% discount on the eShop. But at that point you can make a better decision by checking if W.M.D. also has a discount by then and go for it, or buy Super Woden GP.
My god I know!!! The CPU destroyed me several times when I upped the difficulty hahahah
I mostly remember Cars for the driving mechanic, it was like Need for Speed at the time with a few simplistic and cartoonic twists that made the driving feel unique enough to stand out on its own. I didn't like Cars 2 as much because they practically switched from cartoon-sim driving style to "Mario Kart with energy boost". It was okay, but could've been better.
By the time Cars 3 rolled around, I was already dried from Kart clones, the brake-to-drifters trend, and sim tryhards. There was no in between (IE: Cars 1, Blur, Flatout, or even Midnight Club), and I was pretty disappointed when Cars 3 didn't return to Cars 1's style just like the film did.
Quick question for you, this game is only $6 on Xbox right now, do you think it’s worth it or should I just save up for something else?
To be fair if it's only $6 that's not a bad idea
@@KLEJGaming awesome, I’ll pick it up while it’s cheap then, appreciate that
@@KLEJGaming I ended up getting it and I’m having a lot of fun with it, my only issues so far are McQueen’s voice and the hard difficulty is kind of unfair, it’s hard to keep up with everyone lol
1:50 I know Avalanche Software from Toy Story 3 PS3 (goated game btw)
I've heard it's awesome
@@KLEJGaming it is. Best Pixar game
3:29 Didn't see the Cars 3 movie? Chick Hicks has his own show in the movie, Chick Picks with Chick Hicks.
To be honest I've seen it once back when it came out and not again since...
@@KLEJGaming Why? Was it not very interesting?
@@xxroyalprincexx6811 Nah I remember liking it when I watched it, I wasn't the biggest fan but I thought it was good! I was a kid when the first movie came out, and 11 when cars 2 released so by the time 3 came along I was in my late teens and wasn't as interested
I'm sure when I get around to rewatching it I'll enjoy it more
Caddicarus said that this game is Cars 2 but better
I hate to disagree with Caddicarus
@@KLEJGaming well I don't always agree with him either
It's just cars 2 but worse
@@KLEJGaming Minnemme said the same thing
You deserve to waste 6 hours on a bad game
... for taiking shit about race-o-rama
LIKE... WHO DOES THAT?
I LEARNT MY LESSON I'M SORRY 😭
@@KLEJGaming
I forgive u
Funny story: me and a friend were at a camp when we were younger, and we had 2 options on video games: the wii, or the Xbox. We played the Xbox, and decided on cars 3. Over the next couple of days we beat it and we did enjoy It a bit. Then we played cars 2 for the wii and thought it was way better
Wasn't this the final game to ever be released on xbox 360?
That wouldn't surprise me
Nope, Just Dance 2018 came out after
An open world Radiator Springs map would’ve been a great opportunity in my opinion, but I did still enjoy this video game regardless.
Yeah I agree
If you get Cars 2, do not get it on the PC
Ah yes I was reading about that, thank you :)
@@KLEJGaming
There is a solid benefit to it though in that it has a deceptively active modding community, I would definitely shoot to get it on PC if you find it on sale at the very least if you really want to take a deep d(r)ive into Cars 1/2 mods, because they're surprisingly good!
this game isn't all that bad and its not the worst in the series much less the worst on any of the modern platforms. To be fair you COULD pick far worse even without going into random indie games, gotta give it credit for that much at least despite all its flaws
In all fairness it does actually work and isn't a total glitchfest so I'll give it credit for working and being somewhat competent
@@KLEJGaming needs more credit than that, its enjoyable too, more than a lot of other random games on the system you could pick.
Its a disappointment to the series fine. But if you really want to see games as bad as you claim you have to dig down to the bottom of the barrel on the system
Cars Race O Rama is By far the Best Cars Games i ever Play! But Cars Driven To Win....What a Downgrade for me
3 is such a downgrade hah
im gonna make a bold claim and say cars mater national is kinda worst then cars 3.now before anyone attacks i thought this game was better back when i was younger but when i play it recently i notice its flaws more.frankly the track dont work with the physics mainly canyon run and inside the turkey.play those tracks and youll see what i mean.not saying cars 3 is way better then this but i feel like mater national should be look at before we claim this is the worst cars game.
Oooo okay interesting take - I will have to check out mater national soon
Played Cars 2 this week so video on that next :)
@@KLEJGaming alr almost forgot there mods for cars mater National that let you play cars 1 tracks. You should check out cars legends or cars superdrive. Can't wait to see the video on cars 2
i loved playing cars 2 when i was younger, i brought cars 3 because i thought it would be better but... yeah
Ah... Yeah cars 2 game better
I think me and my friends could voice act better then these replacement replacements
Oh for sure
This game was quite fun when I played it on Wii U a few years ago, got a copy cheap and I thought it was a pretty fun racer, I’d imagine a kid who was a big fan of the movie would have lots of fun with it
I'm glad you had fun with it! Yeah I agree I think kids would like this and I guess at the end of the day that's the main audience for the game :)
You see Cars 3 isn't bad I will say the problem is you should have got it on the switch you should have caught it on Xbox or Playstation probably would have enjoyed it a little bit better but I respect your opinion😅
Yeah I'm sure if I played this again on a better platform I would agree
Nintendo can just do anything to make money even if they have to sell awful games like that Peppa Pig game and more trash games
Pretty much
Damn fr? I really enjoy it and think it looks pretty decent for a switch port, I’ve got a lot of hours in it playing with friends. The boost and trick system is really fun and for me makes up for the lack of diverse maps and the stock sounding music.
I remember playing this game for like 2 hours and I haven’t picked it up since
I didn’t even notice this video but hey my comment from the Race-O-Rama video is here. Cool!
A little further into the video and those voices sound like they came right from a Cars TH-cam Kids Video.
HAHAH that's funny
This port is a port of the 360 and PS3 ports of the game witch is why it looks so bad. I understand it would be easier to port over the last gen port but just cuz it is easier does not mean you should do it
Yeah it's a very lazy port I must say. Makes sense now you've said it
I personally thought this was better than Cars 2 because they removed the stupid battery game mode, they added the stunt game mode which is so fun to play and they made the takedown from Cars 2 a whole lot better!!
I kinda wish it had some of the co-op only game modes from Cars 2 and a bigger roster like Cars 2 (maybe even import some over from Cars 2 like ESPECIALLY Luigi, Sarge and Filmore! Wish they also made Doc playable aswell) but I feel the positives more than out way the negatives
Have you played Cars 2
I have but that was a very long time ago so I'm keen to give it another go
this looks a lot like the cars 2 game even the mechanic looks like a direct copy from the wii but from what ive heard from ur saying it feels like a downgrade from that
It's basically just Cars 2 the game but rushed and mid
Idk how the developers thought anyone would buy this game, looks monotone and dead af
THANK YOU I KNOW RIGHT
Every time I watch game play of Cars 3 it just looks like a polished carbon copy of Cars 2.
I got a racing ad when opening this video.
HAH
HOLY CRAP ITS BEEN 7 YEARS SINCE IVE PLAYED THIS LOL.
I actually forgot this game existed haha
DAMN
I enjoyed this game when it came out. You should make a video on cars 2 aswell!
Thank you for the idea! I think I will soon :)
Literally, the original cars game on the wii looks better than this, and the switch has more power than the wii!
MY POINT EXACTLY!!!!
I feel like you just enjoy hating on Cars games. You made a video saying how much you hated the DS and PSP versions.
Woah woah woah
If you watched them all the way through I actually enjoy some of those DS and PSP games
Cars 1 PSP is great and Cars Mater-national on DS is also great
the reason why i dont like cars 3 is becuse there isnt alot of characters to unlock
Agreed
No its not awful
I'm glad you could enjoy it! :)
Crazy because I'm pretty sure it only took 6 months to make the game
Makes a lot of sense really
Saving grace for this game ( for me at least ) is that Mack is playable.
But what about Red? Lol
That is a good point
Tbh as a card fan this game was a letdown
Agreed
I seriously love the doctor who scenes you put in your videos ❤
I'M SO GLAD 🫡❤️
I definitely don’t disagree with you this game was pretty much mad and it was so familiar towards the gameplay of cars 2, but let’s just be honest it was both the movie and the game was equally terrible
So true
You did said the game was released on Xbox Series X/S and PS5, but it's not true as the game came out in 2017, and both consoles came out 3 years later in 2020, although it can be played on both VIA backwards Compability.
Somehow this looks better than the WRC games on switch… 😭
A better roster and better voice talent would have been better like Cal and Red and the King
Agreed :)
Both this game and the film disappointed me, such a shame a good franchise went to total crap
Agreed
How the fuck did they publish this trash for the 360 and the PS3 in 2017?!?!? The same year the Xbox One X was released. 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah it's tragic 😂😂
okay.. I’ll admit when I was like 11 when I got the game for my birthday, I enjoyed it.. but looking at it now- yeah cars 2 takes the spot with it- the VA was low budget, and they could have done better with the roaster. but don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying it terrible myself- but we could all probably agree it could have been better like with Race O Rama and Cars 2.
Yeah I agree, I suppose it all makes sense looking at the horrendously short development time as well
Cars 2 for being such a terrible movie, had a great ps3 game and I reccomend it
Agreed
god this game looks liek absolute trash how could anyone enjoy it jesus bloody hell
Wise words
I'm surprised you didn't even mention once the biggest problem with this game: It's SLOW AS FUCK!
Seriously, this is a racing game, even if it's aimed toward mostly children. And it's not just any franchise we're talking about, it's Cars! It's like Sonic but on four wheels: the first thing that comes to mind when you think about it is speed. They had no business making the game so slow. Idk if it's the cars that are tiny or the roads that are hell'a wide but either way the result is some sluggish go-kart racing gameplay that wouldn't pose a challenge even if you were utterly wasted.
The only thing it does fast is putting you to sleep. Who needs sedatives when you can just play five minutes of this game?
I agree with you, cars 3 driven to win suckd... :/ cars 2 tvg way better!! :DDD
I'm gonna have to try Cars 2 next
You think that was bad? Try it on the 360
I don't think I want to 😂😭
@@KLEJGaming The algorithm gods have chosen you the video would feed families for centuries
I dont think this games is the worst, i think the worst cars came is race o rama for the DS.
I think also that this game is realy fun. Like think this game is a pye if you finish this "pye"(game) in one at once you Will not enjoy the last slices of the pye.
And also inviting your friends tô eat the pye is realy fun.
I think if you play this game slowly the game beturns enjoable.
And the ting is the swich vergion is terible like play on the ps4 vergion that never gets frame drops and the graffics are in The qualety of the second 2 textures and lighting. Man you can apreciate more the car models.
And for Last for other langueges like portuguese Brazil every car hás his original voice actor.
And explaning chick ricks being the TV show host, because in The 3 movie his is a TV show host.
And one more thing i got to agree whit you at first glance the game controls are over welming, but after playing a litle bit you Will get the hang of it and you Will have fun while playing.
Só i think cars driver to race is a underated game
It's good you were able to enjoy it! I'm sure given time I'd probably appreciate it a bit more too :)
You're right though the PS4 version will definitely be better.
I really liked this game on the PS4 but i respect your opinion on the game
The PS4 version looks a lot better, reviewed better too! Glad you like the game! ❤️
i agree with this cause every time i play this on switch i hurt my finger just driving cause of the controls this gave could of had dlc but nope
Overall a let down
@@KLEJGaming yeah
Okay here’s the thing I don’t mind the game I had fun but gosh I wish we could’ve played as doc I understand why because Paul newman (rest In Peace) but if you have his crew playable might as well add him honestly but that’s just me though 🤷♂️
I get what you mean, I understand why they didn't but I do get it
I still had alot of fun with this game tbh
I'm glad you did! 😊
Yeah, this looks really sad.
Agreed
Bro, this is one of my favorite games ever
I'm sorry I have disappointed you
@@KLEJGaming it’s fine everyone has their own opinion, in my opinion I love the game, but the voice acting is terrible
Thomasville Playground is the best Cars anything.
It was a cool idea to be fair
I swear the Wii U version looks nicer than Switch....
That's actually wild hahaha
@@KLEJGaming Yeah, I saw in a comparison video and the Wii U version looks better than the Switch version.
WHY did they make this Mario Kart rip off cars 2 copy paste shiz instead of a open world story game like the old ones... I dont get it...
The person that voiced lightning mcqueen sounds like quincy from btd6
Omg he does
its sad because avalanche software is like the same creator that made toy story 3.
