Here’s the thing with the THQ Cars games. The glitches and awkward physics make them even more enjoyable because of how crazy they can get. 😂
This is very true, it is quite funny looking back at it now 😂
Indeed.
As a kid I played Race-O-Rama, and got stuck in the stadium hubworld because I didn't realise you had to drive onto the coloured circles and press A. Years later, I learnt how to play the game, and I'll admit I like it. I prefer the Cars 2 game for it's floatier controls, but Race-O-Rama is a fun original story with some good modes and interesting locations.
I didn't hate my experience with this game overall, I did have fun once it got going but there was just a lot that wound me up
Same it was very fun
Fun fact: This game cannot be 100% achievements on Xbox since the achievement is glitched, and I mean just Xbox because with PlayStation you can get it.
That's so frustrating that they never fixed it either wow
Use a pc xbox 360 profile modder to get it, i did it myself and have 100% completion
@@MarbellaMadeMeG Not everyone owns a PC my dude. But what you said could work for achievement/100% hunters
@@RudoMike21 im sure you have a laptop laying around somewhere or something, it doesn’t need to be powerful, you should check it out if you really want the trophy, there might even be a way to do it with a phone I guess
Well that's unfortunate
Owen Wilson actaully only voiced in the original cars game. Keith Ferguson voiced McQueen in the rest of the games actually. In my opinion the new va did a great job. The same cannot be said for Cars 3's game
For me, Cars Race-O-Rama holds a special place in my heart. It was the first game I ever played on my PS2 and the first game where I beat my dad in a match. For me, the worst is Cars 3: Driven to Win, which, in my opinion, is not a bad game, but it's the same as Cars 2, just with less content.
The ost goes hard tho, i always get goosebumps over the main theme
The soundtrack does go hard
I honestly think this is the best. It may not have the grandest story or music as good as Cars The Video Game, but it has the full Map of Radiator springs with all parts connected, as well as 3 other explorable maps, cool customization, and by far the best track design.
Yes, hindsight has changed my opinion of this game significantly
This ain't the worst Cars game by a longshot. That title belongs to Cars 3 Driven to Win
EDIT: 5:26 Well, I don't mind. I always liked Keith Ferguson better anyway
I shall investigate soon then!
atleast that game actually functions, unlike ror, lmao.
@@SplashCinder Wdym
oh yea, cars 3 is definitely the laziest game out of all of the cars games. its still decently fun, but will never be as fun as cars 2 or any of the thq games.
i feel like mater national might be a contender for being the worst, the story is much lamer and the characters arent as interesting
There was no mention of Stinger in this video, you know, the strong silent type racer?
I have to respectfully disagree. This was probably the best game.
See I've now learnt that Cars 3 driven to win may be the worst so I'm gonna have to play that now
If you think that Race O Rama is the worst Cars game, you obviously haven't played the DS version of Cars 1

@@GravePrower_VTactually the gba version IS way better than the ds version, and you can actually race
@@YuukaKazami241 fair just the controls suck
@@GravePrower_VT not too much, i mean yes, they can be uncomfortable at the begining but the wii version kicked his ass in bad controls
3:48 Tara Strong voices Candace???!!! 🤯 Also if i had a kid like that they be regretting talking like that
This game is truly more enjoyable on Wii, because it's even more buggy (with my experience throughout my growing up with this game on that platform) than the others, making it way more fun.
That's good that you were able to enjoy it more because of that!!! Not for me personally but I get how that would be way more entertaining
Yeah I grew up with this game on Wii and the lag actually made it easier for little kid me to beat the game due to not needing to be as precise. I should probably replay it sometime for nostalgia sake but I still got a massive library of other games I need to finish
@@PeruvianPotato I still play it from time to time. I'll play until the disc with my original save is unreadable, then frame it.
that is the one i had, and my god it was super laggy LOL like especially the races that involved Guido because of the large amounts of smoke particles
ROR is a decent game imo,but i cannot forgive how they massacred the Rustbucket and Monster Truck events, they were really fun to play in the OG Cars game and in MaterNational, but in ROR they’re so hard to play because of the AWFUL physics
This!!! I can't stand Rustbucket races in Race-O-Rama
@@manlikekgabzdon’t get me started on the Monster Truck Races lol. Not using Monster Mcqueen = Automatic Loss
The Guido Kart race there is also frustrating. Can’t even go 5 seconds without Guido wanting to spin out
@@bookishgamer890the walls are literally fucking magnetic, i'll take burning to death over playing guido kart race through ps now (or ps plus i guess) every time
When I was younger I really enjoyed Race O Rama, I used to always drive around and do my own thing. And the Radiater Springs map was quite large for the game. I played on the Wii and still have my copy.
There's modders like Paynecars that have been improving these games throughout the years and still are. And they even made a mod that merges all three games into one.
Oh damn that's really cool I'll have to look into that
I personally think it's the best one.
Great music
Interesting story
Good looking character models
Good Voice replacements.
My only problem other than it's weird mouth animation is that it's not on PC so it can't be modded.
It actually can be modded
Low-key the soundtrack does go hard
There are parts of this game I also enjoyed and was maybe just being a bit dramatic about for the video .. 😂
I missed the occasional licensed music that the previous games would use.
race o rama is peak
Why do people find ROR shitty, it was the first cars game I’ve ever played and honestly I’ve enjoyed it a lot. After that I’ve played maternational championship and I found it decent.
I actually remember having the Nintendo DS version of this game as a kid and it was part of my childhood lmao, I'd probably find it mediocre if I replayed it but those low poly cars and sounds were part of my childhood
Man, as a kid the DS version was my life, played so many hours of it on boring days. I didnt even know there was other versions of it! But looking at this video, this and the DS version are completely different games
The only thing I remember about Race-O-Rama is the the title screen theme. It's unironically a banger that I listen to on repeat.
Don't know about the hate but I really liked this game. I really wanted it to be part of the backwards compatibility for xbox.
It's a shame it isn't on backwards compatibility
Although from what I understand you can never get every achievement which is dumb
The first movie had all the original voice actors and in mater national and race o rama do not have
Ror does have owen wilson, larry the cable guy, and michael keaton
I think ror definitely had Larry and Michael Keaton but as far as I could tell after some googling around, Owen Wilson is only in the original game :(
@@RealUncleLJ oh my bad
I had the Wii version and I don't remember having any issues with it excluding the Guido sections. I remember commenting that, that part was a bad Mario Kart rip off on some RUclips video (with a different account) about it back then and getting a lot of downvotes on my comment. Apprently some people actually liked that part?
I guess it really is opinion based - it's cool that people like the Wii version, I just don't think it's for me
I miss the piston cup races in the later games. Seriously the oval races where my favourites part of the original game. No one else liked them but they were my favourite part.
They were so good in the first one! I remember loving them when I was younger
Honestly the list for me is as follows:
1ST: CARS (2006)
2ND: CARS RACE O RAMA
3RD: CARS MATERNATIONAL
4TH: CARS 2
Not even worth mentioning cars 3
I will bare that in mind when looking at the other games :)
I remember playing the crap out of this game on my ps2 when i was around 9, even though i have more memories with the cars 1 game, i remember loving the customization and having sick lightning mcqueen designs.
If I played it back then properly then I'd definitely have the same kinda vibes towards it now for sure
I actually feel this game is pretty underrated. Sure the physics are a complete joke, but I really like everything else about the game. To me, it doesn’t feel like cheap shovelware, and the story actually works better for the series than Cars 2 does.
Yes, in hindsight now I agree with you!
@@KLEJGaming Really?
@@trainlover16 I've played a lot of cars games since, and recently played through the original PS2 game and the handheld version of this one and have grown to appreciate it a lot more
@@KLEJGaming Very pleased to hear that.

It's too bad that Cars never developed into a serious racing game series. The first game wasn't perfect and it maybe doesn't age as well as I'd like, but it was still a pretty nice game for its time. It kinda felt like Daytona USA Jr with a little Mario 64 3D jumping/platforming/collection elements mixed in. It stood out a lot from other racing games that I had played because, well, no other racing game I had played starred anthropomorphic forms of transportation.
With the excellent sales of the 1st game (I recall reading that it was the 2nd-best selling game of 2006), Cars could've developed into a serious racing game series. It would've been a nice alternative to the slick racing simulators that dominate the racing game genre these days, and it would've faced barely any competition, considering how rare arcade-style racing games are these days.
Unfortunately, Disney/Pixar sold the Cars video gaming license to THQ, which made low-budget titles and thus kept remaking Cars 1 without improving on the flaws of the 1st game. Maybe they couldn't afford to evolve Cars' gameplay and could only afford to remake the same game over and over? They were about to go out of business after all. It would've been pretty rad it if the later games had retained the open-world, Need for Speed-inspired gameplay but they had instead been developed by a video game company that had a track record of producing amazing racing game titles such as Black Rock Studio (Split/Second), Namco Bandai (Ridge Racer, Wangan Midnight), or Sega AM2 (Outrun, Daytona USA). EA, in its golden years with NFS Most Wanted, probably could've done a great Cars game, too.
Oh well.
Playing more of this on Xbox and I've taken more of a liking last I remember.
The physics still aren't perfect but it's not entirely the fault of Incinerator, moreso Rainbow since it was even worse in the first game
The worst moments are still the Guido Kart and Monster Truck races but other than them I've actually been enjoying my time a lot more
Do you not realize that this Cars game turns 15 years old this year? It's a pretty good milestone, actually. But still, why do you think that Cars Race-O-Rama is the worst Cars game? I personally like this game! A RUclips user by the name of minimme thinks that Cars Race-O-Rama might be the best Cars game, and he's right! I only have 3 Cars games; Mater-National Championship (XBOX 360), Race-O-Rama (Wii), and Driven to Win (Cars 3). I also used to have Cars 2: The Video Game (also XBOX 360), but I don't know where it is now. How and why is the dialogue of this game even cursed? We all know Owen Wilson isn't in this game to voice the #95 car himself, but still! Sure, the dialogue may not be perfect, but I don't think it's cursed. The Wii version is the only port of this game that I have. Since you said something about making Lightning McQueen look cursed as possible with the customization, I wonder if you can beat this game as a Ricer? You think these sections in the game are boring? Well, some of them can be hard. We can play as whoever we want in these sections. These sections aren't boring! I think they're just as fun as the main game! How can you even sleep on that? In the Guido races, it is like Mario Kart, but in the Cars world. There are bugs and glitches, but that's just the game being the game itself. I don't care if the character designs are just lazy. Sometimes, the plain white cars are just test cars. I wonder if you might scan them with a barcode? I'm just saying. I don't care if it's boring when I'm racing, and I'm just passing/overtaking the same model of cars over and over again! If the final race isn't that dramatic, maybe I could swap some music like a final boss race to make it action-packed! The Wii version of the game was decent for me. I don't care if it's the worst. I don't care if it's slow, laggy, uncontrollable, rubbish, etc. I don't feel bad for playing this. It's not a game for kids. It's a game for EVERYONE! Kids, teens, and adults who love games can play this at any time! In conclusion, i don't care if Cars Race-O-Rama is the worst Cars game, but hey, it's your opinion! We all have different stories to tell about how good or bad the game looks. I still like this game a lot. In fact, I even beat this game in under 1 hour. How? Well, I won't tell you, but I did get to the final showdown when I started. Yes, I unlocked that instantly using some cheat codes. It wasn't me cheating at this game, I just did this for fun. Maybe I could try playing this game again, but only this time, I could beat it as a Ricer. Don't get me wrong, I still like this game. You have your own opinion. If you like it, you like it. If you don't like it, you don't like it. That's all. We're all good. You might hate me because I yap too much, but hey, i'm just making my own comment. In fact, all I do is yap, yap, yap, no matter what. I got words in my mind. I can never get enough. Anyways, I gotta go. Also, *kachow.*
(You better not delete my comment, RUclips. If you do, you will regret it.)
Thank you for taking the time to write all this, it's genuinely really appreciated and interesting to hear what other people think of this game!! I've seen a bit of minimme's videos but I wasn't aware of his take on this one.
I'm going to play Cars 3 soon and I'll probably learn that race-o-rama is in fact not the worst cars game at all! ❤️
@@KLEJGaming
I'm glad that's settled. 😉
I remember playing Cars (2006), Mater-national and Race-o-rama on the Wii back in the day. Cars '06 was a 10/10, I hated Mater-national with a burning passion and Race-o-rama was a 7/10. It has been years since I played them as a kid, so I'm not sure what I would make of them now. But I'm sure that Cars '06 was the definitive game that will never be topped or matched.
Cars '06 is the definitive for sure
Not so fun fact, this is the last thing that randy savage was in before his death
Oh I mean that is an interesting fact but also really sad
If only he knew about Cars Race-O-Rama on ps2 he wouldn't have ever said that wii versions sucks.
Btw, waiting for Cars TVG (2006) review :D
Oh god okay is the PS2 one bad? 😂 Don't you worry there's going to be a complete series review in the next few weeks
@@KLEJGaming ROR ps2 is absolutely horrendous, probs one of the worst PS2 games across the whole library. It lags a lot, it drops to not 25, not 20, but to 15 FPS in many races/areas. It has a lot of graphical glitches like Kabuto's eyes not showing in Tokyo Mater. + one of the biggest stupidity of a decision I was personally first to ever find was the fact that PS2 version does not have a full open world that includes OV, RS and TF (just like in the first cars game), but if u bypass the "entrance trigger" to a new location u will still be able to drive on the unloaded area of f.e. OV and still find that all the races markers and collusion are still there, there's just no textures applied for the area. U can do that from RS to OV and from OV to RS and all the RS/OV races will be there, available for u to select and play.
+ a lot of cool point-to-point races weren't there in the PS2 version. Like, there's a race which goes from TF to RS without a loading screen on every single console, except PS2, cuz they simply never added it. There're no races in PS2 version that has 2 or more areas to drive through. Which is dumb, cuz even in cars 1 there were 2 races (Sheriff's Chase and OVGP) that went from RS to OV and had no loading screen.
Anyways, really looking forward to this review cuz it's my fav game of all time lmao
I actually think this is ready good as when i drift i don't want it to feel like im driving a brick
That's fair enough
@@KLEJGaming thanks :)
The GBA version of Mater-National would like to have a word with you... Seriously, that one is just way too easy. 90% of the time, I finish like 30 Seconds ahead of everyone else, even on Expert mode... It never feels like a challenge in the slightest, unlike ROR. At least it had good music, but every Cars game has good music (Except the 1st game's GBA port)
Cars on GBA sounds like a video in itself tbh
LMFAO, after playing this shit on the DS for 15 years, and hearing the comparison between the Baja truck’s voice to Muscle Man from RS…..all I think of is Muscle Man everytime I hear that damn Baja truck voice. 🤣🤣🤣
HA I'm sorry I've put that thought in your head 😂
2:34 Horrific crash? Man, he barely even hit the wall. Plus, there was no damage whatsoever. 😑😑😑
I think I played this? I don’t remember.
Okay I definitely played this game.
I think
I like the different customisations that McQueen gets in different areas, especially the one in the city world, having McQueen get a wheelie bar and a blower going full Detroit style when his upcoming rival is a brightly coloured muscle car is just so perfect
As someone who had this on ps2, I absolutely fucking loved this game, and I honestly will likely go back to it in the coming years provided I get the chance/remember. I will admit some moments can be bloody bullshit and on occasion the physics are just utter crap but overrall its up there with Cars 2: The Videogame, I just wish the game was on PC so I could purchase it on Steam. Good video btw!
Yeah in hindsight it's really not bad hahaha, thank you I appreciate it ❤️
For a game made in 2009 despite the hiccups it wasn’t that bad.
I remember playing this a lot when I was younger and had a blast the customization was a very interesting concept. The music is great the voice acting is very (interesting) but aside from that it’s a very underrated game I mean compared to cars 3 this game beats it under the water.
Hot Take: Cars 2 is the best one in the trilogy and the game makes it better.
Off topic but you get what I mean.
Dont know who you are but great video
Thank you!!! ❤️
This is the BEST Cars game actually NOT the WORST
I've been told that Cars 3 may be the worst, video to come on that in the next few weeks!!
@@KLEJGaming it is and the movie is also the worst as well
6:37 That is just cursed💀💀💀
this game was peak as fuck when i was a kid.
I wish I'd properly played it when I was younger
I must admit I had bit better time with RoR then Mater-National Champ. probably because of new features and bit better story structure but not any of those two reach the greatness of the original game that game was just phenomenal for what tried to achieve and was far more focused on story and characters then the rest.
Looking at this and some of your other videos, you definitely deserve to be so much bigger! Quality vids and good commentary!
Thank you so much!!! ❤️
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO WRONG
I'm about to play Cars 3 next week so yeah I'm probably wrong
Cars Race-O-Rama was a game I played on my mama's PS3. And the only knock I had on it is the fact that every time I started the game again I would have to reset the save file before starting the game losing all progress. Other than that, I enjoyed this game and I'm curious to see what he says is wrong with the game.
Well I got the PS2 Version so I don't know what's the difference between PS3 from PS2. Maybe I will return to it. Even if it not great controls but it was fun in my opinion.
Yeah my opinion of this game has got better overtime!
You should try Cars 2 if you haven’t before and then decide which one is truly the worst 😭
I'm on a mission to play them all now to truly reach this conclusion
Finally found someone who realizes how bad it really gets. I'm just amazed that Incinerator made the physics WORSE after they had experience in 2 other games (the Wii ports of Cars 1 and Mater-National)
Their standalone outing feels horrendous in comparison. I've played both Wii and Xbox 360 versions, i didn't think much of the Wii version, weirdly. I beat the campaign, but then after replaying it on the Xbox... how did I not realize the glitchiness. I also had both versions on me crash a few times, mostly on Xbox. The Mater's Tall Tales minigames and Guido Kart races suck too
If there's anything good I can say it's that graphically all versions look pretty good, and the new hub worlds are nice.
Yeah graphically it's actually pretty cool but the rest is a mess
not the worst game, and it is a good game in its own right
Yeah my opinion of Race-O-Rama has become a lot more positive in the couple of months since posting this
I always had mixed thoughts about this game compared to the first 2 that were released. I still like this game alot, but there were alot of flaws in this one that i would like to write down. (Sorry if this is a long comment.)
The characters were pretty unbalanced and undriveable. (Bubba, Monster Mater and Sully, Guido Kart characters except for Luigi and Trophy Girl.)
The new cities were nice, but they felt really small and didn't have much detail. I personally liked how on the DS and PSP version of Motoropolis having a nice highway to race on along with a huge lake you can see. Motoropolis on the console versions feel a little plain.
One of the areas from the first Cars video game was blocked off. It was an offroad path that leads you to the top of the rocks you can jump on and collect postcards. (I was able to glitch through it with a trick on the PS3 version.)
Rustbucket race layouts felt plain in this game. I liked Mater National's alot.
Alot of areas in Radiator Springs, Ornament Valley, and Tailfin Pass felt like they weren't used for races much, and there was also some unfinished textures around the Wheel Well area too.
Alot of minigames felt like they were forgotten and not much noticed during this game's release. (There was only 1 Luigi's Tire Find, Sheriff's Chase, Tractor "Tipping" which was turned into Stampede instead.)
This one could be a huge disagreement to others, but i always wondered if this game had it's own Online mode where people can free roam around with Lightning and race players with their own customized Lightnings.
Other then that, this game is still fun. Mater National was my favorite out of the first 3 Cars games because of the International racers, and some additional areas added to Radiator Springs, Ornament Valley, Tailfin Pass, and the Stadium races, and i can understand why some of the detailed areas in that game weren't brought over in this game (Except for the Museum that was built at the end of Mater National brought over to Race-O-Rama.) I always did wish this game had a sequel that took it's time and it probably could've been a perfect Cars game.
This could be the perfect base for a perfect cars game and now with the power of the modern systems, but they left it to rot, a shame.
THIS WAS MY CHILDHOOD AMD PRIDE AND JOY HOW DARE YOU
I'M SORRY 😭😭 I've changed my mind now I've played some more
I like all the cars games, my least favorite has to be the cars3 one, but I still consider this one being pretty solid 👍
I've changed my opinion on Race-O-Rama in the couple months since I made this video, it's actually pretty solid compared to other games I've now played
This game is much better then Mater-National. But it certainly isn't as bad as Cars 3 Driven to Win, Lightning's new voice is way more terrible in that game. But I'll say the Cons of this game to me is by far the Guido Kart racing, you spin out way to easy and is the most frustrating event in all of the game
I have just started playing Driven To Win and honestly it's one of the worst games I think I've played in recent memory - video next week I think

the story of this game, even for cars' standars makes absolutely no fucking sense, the game is held together by ducktape, has so many bugs, looks kinda shitty when compared to the 360 version of cars 1, the gameplay becomes very VERY repetitive after a while, the new characters are extremly boring and uninteresting, yet it turns out to be the one with the best controls out of the 3 original thq cars games, as well as being by far the most fun to speedrun DUE to its shitton of bugs, i love this game, it was a huge part of my childhood and ill always hold the memories it gave me dear to my heart, however, yeah, this games' kinda shitty, ngl.
