Cars 2

This thrilling game, based on the smash-hit Disney film, narrowly missed out on a podium place. Cars 2 doesn’t have real-world cars, and the animated tracks are fictional. But you can play as lead character Lightning McQueen or choose from friends such as Tow Mater and Finn McMissile.

One for kids, and there’s no online play, yet adults won’t tire of joining in using the split-screen multiplayer mode. Powersliding, blowing up rivals, driving backwards and performing tricks is great fun.
