Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing - PlayStation 3

Such a fun game my five-year-old likes playing this game now. It's easy to play.

When it comes to reviewing a game, I prefer to make a long story short, and the truth is that this review could be told in just one single phrase: It's a really good game.About the game? Well, you already know it: A Mario Kart-style game with the Sega family of mascots using weapons, drifting and turbo boosts to reach the finish line.Among the many positive aspects: Nice and colorful graphics that still hold up perfectly 3 years after release. Good soundtrack and sound effects. Great course design, based on classic Sega franchises. A lot of characters and tracks to choose from, many of them unlockables, which gives the game a high replay value. Many multiplayer modes, including online, which works pretty well, and you can find a considerable amount of gamers still playing it now on 2013 (be sure to be friendly and add them to your buddy list if you want to get the online trophies). The learning curve is very tight, ranging from beginner single player modes to a (very, I mean it) hard difficulty setting and a mission mode to improve your skills. Your achievements and mileage will give you points to exchange them for unlockable characters and tracks.Is there anything bad? Well, some minor low frame rate moments and the announcer's voice, which can be a little too much euphoric at times.At $15, you won't get a better investment than this game. If you like kart racing games to play alone, with friends or the family, add it to your cart now and be happy like me!

I bought this game because I missed playing the old school Sega Genesis. This game is the best works very well with the PS3. My kids and I have fun.

Fast delivery, fun game

I hate seeing good products go unappreciated, and that's why I'm writing this review.I have no doubt in my mind that if the words "Sonic" and "Sega" were replaced by "Mario" and "Nintendo" in the title, this game would have already sold a million copies day one. Apparently brand name is that important to the casual gamer...and that's a shame, because this is a fun, well made game that deserves a chance.It's not as if the characters are unfamiliar. Sonic, Shadow, Amy Rose, Tails, Knuckles, Dr. Robotnik, Jacky and Akira from Virtua Fighter. Characters from million selling hit games. Just like Mario Kart.It's not as if the game isn't exciting. It's racing! The controls are responsive and fast. The tracks are anywhere from simple to quirky to challenging. Just like Mario Kart.It's not as if the game is ugly. Sleek presentation. Very colorful racers and environments. Cute/funny/ridiculous animations. Just like Mario Kart.It's not as if the game is tough on the ears. The sound effects compliment the action nicely, while you're treated to classic themes that you might recognize from previous games. And, plenty of exaggerated voice samples that range from hilarious to cheesy. Just like Mario Kart.The game has received solid reviews from gaming websites, casual players around the web, other Amazon reviewers, and now little ol' me. What more does it take to get people to open their minds? Hey, if you squint, Sonic sorta looks a little like Mario...they're both red and blue. Will that do it for you? Will pretending that it's a Mario game actually allow people to forget blind brand loyalty and try something that they will probably enjoy just as much?Well, whatever you have to do, do it. As long as it lets you let yourself enjoy a good game.

Perfect game for the junior racers and fun for the more experienced as well.

Buen juego
