Speed Racer game demo and guide

Speed Racer is a racing video game developed by Sidhe Interactive for the PlayStation 2 and Wii consoles and by Virtuos Games for the Nintendo DS console, and published in-house by a new division of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, WB Games.

It is a tie-in to the 2008 film adaptation of the same name. The actors from the movie reprise their role their video game counterpart. The Wii and Nintendo DS versions of the game were released May 6 2008. The PlayStation 2 version was released September 16, 2008, alongside the DVD release. The music for the Wii, Nintendo DS and PlayStation 2 versions of the Speed Racer video game was composed by Winifred Phillips and produced by Winnie Waldron.

Gameplay

The game is a racing game in the vein of the F-Zero series, including tracks full of odd twists, turns and loops impossible by realistic standards, set in five vibrant, exotic locations. The goal of the game is not only to win first place in each race, but also to have the most points by the end of the cup to win the competition.

Points can be earned by placing high during races, but also by performing stunts and, most commonly, bashing into and destroying other racers with the use of car acrobatics, called "car-fu" in the game. Driving well (i.e., not hitting walls, avoiding other drivers) rewards the player with a boost. Four boosts may be collected this way, and if all four boosts are used at once, the car enters a "speed zone" in which the players travels more than twice as fast as their regular top speed, and any cars hit by players in this state are significantly damaged and/or destroyed. Boosts may alternatively be used to repair the car by refilling the health meter.

A full boost will repair half of the health meter, while a partially-filled boost meter will only repair a smaller amount of the meter.

Each version of the game has its own unique control method. The PS2 version uses a standard control setup, where the buttons are used for driving and attacking, while the DS uses the stylus in conjunction with the touchscreen.

The Wii version can be controlled by holding the Wii Remote sideways, and also with the Wii Wheel peripheral, and is controlled by a combination of button input and motion controlls, such as waving the Wii Remote to the left or right to make the vehicle quickly slide in that direction.

There are a total of 19 selectable characters in the game, each with their own unique vehicle.
