Disney Presents a PIXAR Film: Cars, Electronic Games

Start your engines and hold on tight 'cos it's Piston Cup season again. Lightning McQueen soon discovers that the new season brings the return of an old nemesis, Chick Hicks. In Cars for the DS, you have to help guide Lightning and his radiator Springs friends through a series of high octane mini-games to ultimately compete in the Piston Cup. You can play as Lightning and defeat Chick in four different Cup races to win once and for all. Each subsequent Piston Cup race features additional laps and pit stops for the ultimate in competitiveness. New races are unlocked after the completion of three consecutive mini-games, such as Casa Luigi's Casa Della Tyres, in which you have to watch out for the wind as you stack a column of tyres; World's Best Backwards Driver, where you literally reach for the stars; and Tractor Tippin', a variation on the peculiar pastime of cow-tipping. There is a whole load of mini-games to get involved in as well as the Story and Arcade modes. Suffice to say, it doesn't get old, and that's because the game has been made with such a lot of affection for its characters. Cars for the DS is just as much of a feel-good game as its bigger console brethren, the advantage with this version being that you can take it with you. So start the car!

Iron Aces 1942
It's true that flight simulators are mainly PC-based products. This is largely because of fewer controls on a console's controller. Many simulators of this kind require an extensive control system that make use of at least twenty or so key functions. But because the Dreamcast has mouse and keyboard compatibility, Xicat took it upon themselves to create the first World War II-based game for the con...

Blues Brothers 2000
The Blues Brothers first made its appearance a long, long time ago - 1980, in fact. The eighties were a decade where the likes of Ghostbusters and Back To The Future were considered to be the best films around. The Blues Brothers fits into this category quite nicely. Amazingly, after more than fifteen years, the non-cool film of the eighties, Blues Brothers, made another appearance on the big scre...
MDK 2
Ladies and gentlemen, Kurt has returned, web-like parachute intact, and 'Hectic' action is guaranteed. The first version of MDK was a massive success, a quirky and original shooter, played initially from a third person perspective, and always as the aforementioned, fearless and unusually-attired Kurt Hectic. MDK 2 is the dazzling sequel in which Kurt is called upon once again to save the planet fr...
NHL 2K
Watch out, there's a ruddy-cheeked, toothless Canadian about! NHL 2000 is the absolute flipside to the dour realism of classic ice hockey movie 'Slapshot', in that rather than laugh yourself silly at the reckless antics of a bunch of ageing alcoholic no-hopers, every player in this title looks as fit as a butcher's dog. And yes, that includes the clumsily swaying mass of loud colours and padding t...
