 The Best Game I bought for Playstation 1 April 7, 2005
Most of the reviews are really positive.
Some have said they lost interest in this game. Did you try the adventure game? For those of you not familiar with this game. THere is the standard race, a twisted metal combat game and as I mentioned the adventure game.
Let me tell you about this game. You start out with a limited cast of players and cars. Some said that the cars are too hard to control, but if you play the adventure game you can win additional cars. You can win additional characters too. And you can win additional tracks. If you make it thru the adventure game you will have all characters and all the cars available for each character.
What is the adventure game you ask? Well, you have a time limit to drive your muppet characters car around and explore. You pick up objects in that time limit. You get all the stars you get sometime. You find one of the racers not currently available...you then race them and if you win that character is available. I mean honestly I can not get into detail enough to tell you everything on this game. Really I rarely have enough interest in a game to finish, but this game I kept with it and I did.
I just received a Playstation 2 and hope this game plays on my playstation 2. I doubt my memory card will work but I will have to play this game through so I have a fully stocked game.
Honestly, in my opinion this was the best game I purchased for my Playstation 1 system in all the year. If you can find it get it!
 Not what expected July 26, 2004
Having grandkids who love the muppets, I thought this would be a great game. I found they had lost interest in it quickly (unusual for a playstation game.) The reason was you had to keep your eyes on the screen constantly. The Christmas part was cute and fun, but the others ( 25 characters to choose from) became boring. They still love the Muppets, but gave the game to a friend. I was glad since it was only frustrating them.
 Hard to control July 18, 2002

This game is very difficult and the racers are hard to control. I got this for my daughter as a Christmas gift in 2000 and she was 7-1/2 at that time. She tried to play it several times and has found it very difficult and frustrating to play. I've tried playing it myself and found it very difficult to control. It definately is not a Crash Team Racing, which was easier to play. Unless you can get this game at a substantially reduced price or for free I wouldn't waste the money on it as it is a difficult game to play & control.
 A Muppet lover's dream October 18, 2001

This is a wonderful game. Although the controls can be very frustrating at times, there is so much to do on every single board, that it takes hours and hours to complete. There are even hidden bosses. I would highly recommend this game to someone who has a good background knowledge of the Muppets. The movie clips are a lot of fun, and there are many voice clips to make it interesting and fun, too.

My son saved up his allowance for this. He is 7. ... My son actually loved it. It's fast paced, real fast paced. You have to be glued to the screen, literally or you will miss something as you race on by. He laughed a lot, but I am pretty sure he never quite figured out what he was doing. He stuck to one area of the game a lot, and I think it may be due to the fact that the other areas were a bit confusing. Thats makes for a difficult decision then. Most 7 year olds are very adept at playing and figuring out video games..... so should I reccomend this? Yes, for the money and the laughs, it's well worth it. In a world filled with many many violent video games, seeing the Muppets zoom on by was rather refreshing for a change. He does not play it a lot, but when he does, he plays for more than 30 minutes if we let him.
