I was one of the lucky Bzzagents chosen to participate in their bzzcampaign for the new Disney Cars 2 Video Game. They sent me the game for free! All I have to do is spread the word (good or bad) about it! So, Here’s my take:
My personal opinion of the game is that it’s pretty lame. The graphics are nothing better than mediocre, there’s no real story line or quest to the game, and the gadgets in the game are pretty unimpressive. I can’t see how anyone over the age of 10 or so could possible enjoy playing this game more than once. That being said, did I mention that I have an eight year old son?
As soon as Bzzagent offered me the Disney Cars 2 Video Game campaign I told James and his excited reaction was priceless! I may have been too quick to tell him though, because for the next few weeks every time I checked the mail he’d ask “Is Cars 2 here yet?” and he would get sadder with each “Not yet”.
And then…. Finally, the mailman delivered! It honestly felt like my son had removed the plastic wrapper before I had finished removing the game from the envelope! Now, when you read this part, you may just say that I am a terrible mother but with his sister being away at camp and there not being any kids around to play, I kind of let him get away with playing on Wii for the WHOLE day!
So what’s James’ opinion? James really likes it. He likes the different places that the races take place like Tokyo and London. He also says he enjoys using the missiles to shoot other racers. He really likes the new character Finn McMissile because (his words) “he’s the fastest dude in the game”! James also has several friends that come over and enjoy playing with him too.
So there ya have it, while most adults probably would not be impressed with this video game, kids do like it. And I’m guessing that kids were who the game was meant for anyway so, good job Disney!
