Activision have given us yet more ammunition to dislike them. They’ve announced Dreamworks Super Star Kartz [sic]. Delightfully it’ll feature all your favourite animated Dreamworks characters.
Though if you’re anything like us, you’ll struggle to name one of them besides Shrek. In fact you’d probably have more luck naming the incidental characters in the Shrek series than you would the other Dreamworks IPs in the game.
For the record they include the titular Monsters vs Aliens, characters from How To Train Your Dragon and a myriad selection of Madagascar characters. At least the latter are charming, if forgettable. Even the zebra voiced by Chris Rock.
It’s due out on all major formats in time to be ignored by everyone with half a brain and subsequently given as presents to poor unsuspecting children (although you’ll be whoring them for the achievements – Ed). For once we feel sorry for them. Ian
