Start Your Engines!!
Cars is a video game based on the movie "Cars" which has been released worldwide by Disney & Pixar in 2006! The game Cars takes it's story after what took place in the Cars Movie!

In the video-game Cars you mostly play as the role of Lightning McQueen, Car No' 95 whom came out of nowhere and entered the Big Grand Prix's to become the first Rookie ever to win a Piston Cup!

With his acclaimed praises as based in the movie, Lightning resides at Radiator Springs GP, but now wishes to enter the tournaments to win the 2006 Piston Cup Trophy, however, since he hasn't raced in awhile, his assistant coach Mater suggests he practices up, win some competitions and races around Radiator Springs and help out the locals to help Lightning build up to become a competitive racer in the Grand Prix's! Although Lightning wasn't sure of the idea, he took Mater's recommendation!

Your mission is to help Lightning enter competitions and races across Radiator Springs and other local areas and win local races and build up Lighting to become an ultimate racer to win the Piston Cup Trophy! The game not only has races, but also challenges like Tractor Tipping and Sheriff chasing speeders across the town!

It's a big adventure out their and its fun for everybody, family, friends, children and more! On the XBox 360 Version, Cars has 15 Achievements with up to 1000 Gamerscore Points! All the achievements in this game are offline, so this means you can get all the achievements on this game whether you have or you haven't got XBox Live!

My Personal Game Score: 9/10: Smashing, Groovy, Wonderful

My Wish: My disadvantage for this game is awful camera angles. In some races it is quite hard to twist the camera angle to the desired position you want the camera placed! An improvement on that would be grateful!

Final Comments: As you aware, I wanted the game for achievements, but even if I was going for achievements or not it was one game that was on my hit list for me to have a go at since I enjoyed watching the movie even though I'm probably a little over the age! Overall, the video game Cars is very good and if you want an easy 1000G or fun, then start yourself off with this game!
