It's simply fantastic. If you're looking for a great racing game, arcade more likely, Hot Wheels Turbo Racing is a terrific game to play. Its races fantastic, great options and lot more than you think.
The stunts are the best thing in the game. All vehicles can do stunt, but some more than others. When you try to choose a vehicle the game shows you next to the vehicle, its speed, durability, stability and stunt. Speed how fast a car is and the greater the speed the greater the acceleration. Durability is how strong the vehicle is. If the car is very strong, it won't be destroyed easily in battle or when it crashes or collides with an other vehicle. Stability is mostly how stable the car is. Stunts, if the green bar is full you can perform stunts with ease, if lower the harder it will be, normally cars with high durability the stunt meter is normally low like the Thunder Roller. There are many stunts to perform like Barrel Roll, Somersault, and Back and Front flips and tons others. When you do stunts the game displays the game of the stunt you have just performed. There is the turbo meter which by every stunt it increases. You can perform turbos for acceleration.
The only shame is that the game is far too short. There are only 3 cups, which you can unlock some cars. In most tracks there are always hidden cars to find and ones you find them, they become playable. Races are normally up to 6 players. Only one of the cups is 3 players only. Graphics are super and soundtrack is awesome. Music is basically soundtrack, except for the menu. You can also use codes to unlock some cars.
Hot Wheels Turbo Racing is definitely worth playing mostly because of its crazy stunts and blowing speed. These might be toy cars, but the awesome sense of speed and action are surprising. Too bad it's short but there is enough variety in the game to keep you busy for a long time.
