Milestone avoids this issue by including a massive number of track designs, challenges, and race types. One of the pitfalls of a title like this can be repetitiveness. Even on easy (the lowest level) there are times when certain AI cars will push you to be almost perfect, and it creates an amazing experience that helps add layers to the experience. Another aspect of what makes Hot Wheels Unleashed so much fun and absolutely addicting is how the AI ramps up as you move up difficulty levels.

Thankfully, Hot Wheels Unleashed delivers in the most excellent of ways when it comes to adrenaline-fueled excitement once you hit the track. While licensed cars and nostalgia are extremely important to a title like this, inevitably it comes down to how it performs on the track and the level of fun that it delivers.
