Quick 3D Review: Cars 2 for the PS3

Game: (4 out of 5)

Cars 2 for the PS3 is a great game with a ton of replay value. I've already spent several hours playing it (almost non-stop) and I still feel like there's a lot more to see and do. There's a ton of additional games modes, tracks, cars, etc that can be unlocked as you get further into the game.
Of course there are your standard race modes with your standard power-ups. And there is a large variety of weapons that are a lot of fun to use as you blast your opponents to bits and pieces.

The multiplayer mode is a blast. you can play up to 4-players on a split screen, and there are additional game modes like Arena that are multiplayer only.Arena mode feels a lot like the old Playstation classic, Twisted Metal, but with better graphics. As well you have the choice to play in teams or every man for himself.

3D Effect: (4 out of 5)

Cars 2 has just become my all-time favorite 3D game for the PS3. There's not a lot of "in your face" moments, but the 3D depth is impressive. And what's even more impressive is just how beautiful this game looks in 3D on my Sony 3DTV. The colors, the brightness, and the clarity of the picture are all stunning. And it's all achieved with minimal ghosting and no noticeable hit to the framerate.

If you're looking for a fun game with great graphics and great 3D this one should be at the top of your Christmas list.
