Aside from the standard racing mechanics, the game also has a good drift system and the right analog stick is mapped to four basic tricks in the air (front flip, back flip, spin and barrel roll) while on the ground it allows you to switch to backwards driving mode or puts you up on two wheels. The controls are deeper than you might imagine for what appears to be a kids’ game. These different types of events all offer different twists to the gameplay and none of them are unenjoyable thanks to the decent on-track action. Here you can take part in regular races, battle races (which are races with weapons), stunt events, best lap time trials and takedown battles (which see you rampaging through a packed field of drone cars). The main structure of the game is based around the ‘Events’ part of the menu. You can pretty much forget about the story and just focus on the content and thankfully Cars 3: Driven to Win has plenty. There are key races from the film that you can have but you can play these as any car, not just Lightning McQueen the film’s main character, and still advance the story. The game ties in with the new movie, Cars 3, but gives the story the minimum of attention and instead focuses more on giving you a Mario Kart style racer instead. So when Cars 3: Driven to Win showed up in my review pile, I wasn’t expecting much from it. The games are usually good for an easy trophy/achievement set and not much more. Computer animation always feels too cold and clinical to me and anyway all these films have the same plot and I’m not ten years old. I’ve never really bought into the whole Pixar thing.
