0.5MPH is extremely fast, when your vehicle is only big enough to carry an ant! Jockey for first place with your favourite character from the hit motion picture Antz, using vehicles that aren't your typical garden variety. Surf using a leaf, race in a cool drink can - even hop on a wasp for the antenna-raising thrill ride of your life! You may feel tiny, but practise will make you a giant among racers! [Empire Interactive]

The controls give no feel of racing, the graphics are bland at best, and the sound is forgettable. [Dec 2002, p.144]

Official Xbox Magazine
Many courses are so pointlessly complex and poorly laid out it's imossible to tell which way to turn. [Dec 2002, p.92]

No doubt the developers would hide behind the old ‘but it’s for the kids’ line – but believe us Antz Racing would be an insult to the intelligence of a four-year-old. Redeeming features? Not a single one.

If there is an Eskimo in need of ice, surely this huckster will be the one to sell it... To the point, Antz Extreme Racing just plain sucks. [Winter 2002, p.104]

Best game since Kabuki Warriors.

Adam M, I wanna make love to you. I haven't played a better game since BMX XXX. In this game you can go into malls, rob stores and murder the owners, god it's fun. The funniest thing is this total white guy called Diaz, he has a mansion which you eventually take over.

Adam M. gave it a 10:
A true winner, ignore the critics this is a must have.
