Lego Racer (PC)

Okay, this is another Lego game and it is aimed for a younger public but I think that the UK team which develops Lego software titles has done really good with this one! It is smooth and funny, of course, it is not that easy so you need to play a few times but this is probably the best fun game available from Lego Sofware! Nothing to do with lego Mindstorms and their RCS bricks which come from the States an ddo not work in Europe! These games were developped in the UK and the team behind it has done a great job! They have a few other titles like Lego Friends and Lego Chess which are good, don't get me wrong but not as entertaining ...  Read the complete review

I bought Lego Racers at the start of the year, for my middle son’s birthday. All my children have loved playing with Lego throughout their childhood and so I though, why not try a Lego computer game? Well I did and I plumped for Lego Racers, and let me tell you it’s really not that bad. I don’t usually buy driving games for the PC, as I believe consoles handle them much better, however Lego Racers doesn’t require anything spectacular from your PC in specification terms. Essentially it’s the same as most other ‘carting’ type games, probably best compared with Mario Cart but with ‘Lego’ graphics. The basic ...  Read the complete review

One in a range of incedible Lego games. Lego Racers is like your standard off-road racing game but with a few differences; you can build your own car either from pre-designed styles or use your imagination! You can collect power-ups along the track eg: turbo boost and cannonball. These will help you along the way. Try to complete circuits of 4 tracks to get the 1st Prize Cup. Every time you manage this you get new tracks and cars. The best graphics that I've seen in a racing game, the 3d aspect of the game just adds to the brilliance. When you buy this game you will be pleasantly suprised, from the colourful manual to the cool powerups that are collected on ...  Read the complete review

Lego Racers has potential to be a good game, and it's turned out ok. It's a run of the mill racing game, be first to finish after three laps, so it's not covering new ground. You race through 'lego' courses of the usual things like woods, beaches and castles. It sounds quite good fun but it is flawed. The handling is poor. It's way too under responsive. Or to the driving buffs, understeer. Some of the courses are way too tough, and are impossible to win without the aid of the power ups. The power ups are a good idea but the computer uses them on you only, so you'll be forever getting hit. ...  Read the complete review

I wolud have died of embarasment if I had actually bought this game, my baby sister got it. If you have played Crash Bandicoot racer then you know this game except for terrible graphics and sound, very easy tracks, you get a level editor but I do think that this game is designed for a monkey. Ny sister soon lost intrest and is going to trade this game for something else. There are loads of PC reacing games out there Driver for example is much better. ...  Read the complete review
