    If you are in need of an extremely enjoyable racing game that you can play anywhere on your DS, I recommend that you pick up “Cartoon Network Racing.” Even if you aren’t a fan of Cartoon Network in particular, you should still get the same sense of enjoyment out of this game as any cartoon fanatic would.

    There’s no such thing as a kid who doesn’t watch or at least know of Cartoon Network. Cartoon Network has given host to a wide variety of cartoons – Cow & Chicken, Dexter’s Laboratory, Power Puff Girls, Ed, Edd ‘n Eddy, etc. Cartoon Network Racing uses a variety of these franchises, combining them with the best genre of games to put a franchise into – kart racing.

    If you stick with Cartoon Network Racing long enough and push past the frustrations, the fun factor does eventually increase. There are only 16 courses here, but there are plenty of unlockable extra speed settings and hidden characters. The game even capitalizes on its television affiliation by including three full cartoon episodes, each of which is presented with applaudable clarity – much better than what we saw from the Game Boy Advance Video format a few years ago....

    In November 2005, the Internet age finally came to Nintendo with the release of Mario Kart DS. In a few months, Diddy Kong Racing will continue the kart racing tradition on the DS. But what is the fan of kart racing who has played his fill of Mario Kart DS supposed to do until then? Game Factory has sought to answer that question by releasing Cartoon Network Racing. But is Cartoon Network Racing a worthy successor to Mario Kart DS, or does it belong on the junk heap... Read more

    As we mentioned earlier, every racer or kart title is likely to be compared to the mighty Mario Kart and while this is one of the better ones, it's not without its problems. For starters some of the levels are very difficult especially as you progress through the game, meaning you'll probably play some levels far more than you want to. This is generally a result of having a less powerful car than you need. Better models can be unlocked but this does take considerable... Read more

    Racing games are some of my favorite video games to play, especially for handheld systems like the Nintendo DS. I do not like to drive in real life, but I do like the thrill of driving in video games and the fact that it is a game and it is okay if you ... Read more
