''Speed Racer: The Videogame'' is a racing video game developed by Sidhe Interactive for the PlayStation 2 and Wii consoles and by Virtuos for the Nintendo DS, and published by WB Games. It is a tie-in to the 2008 film adaptation of the same name.〔(Speed Racer for WII - Speed Racer Wii - Speed Racer WII Game )〕 The actors from the movie reprise their role on the video game counterpart. The Wii and Nintendo DS versions of the game were released on May 6, 2008,〔〔 while the PlayStation 2 version was released on September 16, 2008,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Speed Racer (ps2: 2008): Reviews )〕 alongside the DVD release. ==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. The player can distinguish the vehicle's health by the gauge, but also the colour of the jet at the rear of the vehicle: if it is bluish-white, the car is fine; if it is red and smoking, it is severely damaged; if the camera suddenly starts to zoom out, the car is going to explode. If this happens, the player must quickly repair their car, or else it will explode. If the player's car explodes, the player will re-spawn nearby; however, the brief delay between the car exploding and re-spawning allows other racers to pass the player. 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 controls, 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 20 selectable characters from the film in the game, each with their own unique vehicle. Each character also has a specific rival, whom, should the player destroy or finish the race before, award bonus points. For example, Speed Racer's rival is Jack "Cannonball" Taylor. In certain gameplay modes, players can enter alliances with other racers, who will attempt to interfere with the player's rival. Performing "car-fu" on allies will penalize the player, however. Each character's car has different stats, of which there are 4 in total: *Speed: Speed is the maximum speed their car can reach. A car with high speed can travel very fast; likewise, a car with low speed cannot travel very fast. *Acceleration: Acceleration is how fast a car reaches its top speed. A car with high acceleration can reach its top speed very quickly; likewise, a car with very low acceleration will take longer to reach its top speed. *Handling: Handling is how easy a car is to control, especially at high speeds. A car with high handling can be controlled with little to no difficulty; likewise, a car with low handling will require more effort from the player to control. *Strength: Strength is how much damage a car can inflict on opponents. A car with high strength can inflict high amounts of damage on opponents; likewise, a car with low strength can inflict very little on opponents. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Speed Racer: The Videogame」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
