Advantages: Good roster of characters, Bright and colourful 3d, Good extra modes such as minigames Disadvantages: Brings nothing new to the racing genre, a pitful frame rate
Some of the gratest cartoon character get in go carts and race for the cartoonnetworkracing title.
CartoonNetworkRacing was released on the Sony Playstation 2 and the Nintendo DS but today we will be looking at the NDS version.
This version in my opinion is the better version becuase with its nice 3d graphics and fairly large roster the game does open up doors for a sequel.
However, with lots of things to unlock and a few minigames to play this game would mostly aim for a younger audience as they will be able to play as their favourite characters.
The nagatives of this game include: stuttering frame rate along with no real original ideas.
Finally, I would reccommend this game for under 10 year olds but for those who wish for a challenge Mario Kart DS is aimed for you. But overall I was very pleased with thios game ...
Advantages: Good controls, variety of weapons and modes Disadvantages: Repetitive, hard

Advantages: Fun and entertaining for children Disadvantages: None
NOTE: I am writing this review on CartoonNetwork's website.
I used to check out CartoonNetwork's website when I was a lot younger. I checked it out again recently and I have to say, it has lost its enjoyment value.
This website would be a great way of entertaining your kids and keeping them entertained for a long time at that. It is full of great, fun games that your kids are bound to enjoy.

Overall, I think that Cartoon ...
