	Micro Machines - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Micro Machines: The Original Scale Miniatures (called either "Micro Machines" or simply "Micros") were a line of toys originally made by Galoob (now part of Hasbro) in the mid 1980s and throughout the 1990s.
		Micro Machines were literally that - tiny scale component style "playsets" and vehicles that were slightly larger than "N scale" at an average length of 1.5 inches.
		Although Micro Machines have not been sold in the United States in some years, newer models are available in the UK and Europe.

	Micro Machines V3 for PlayStation Review - PlayStation Micro Machines V3 Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		It's right there in the name, just as it should be: Codemasters' Micro Machines V3, an experience that strays from the path of the current pack of racing games by utilizing tiny little vehicles in a tiny little world.
		All in all, Micro Machines V3 is a nice diversion from the first- or third-person racers that seem to crowd the field these days.
		Micro Machines returns for a fourth iteration, this time at the hands of Supersonic Software.

	Micro Machines V4 (ps2: 2006): Reviews
		Micro Machines V4’s only genuine problem is its overbearing similarity to "Mashed," a game that can be bought for a third of the price.
		Micro Machines V4 is a worthy part of a traditionally sublime racing series, but its appeal mostly lies with the party gamer set.
		Micro Machines v4 doesn't stray one bit from its own gene pool and certainly doesn't impress on any level other than mindless, guilty arcade racing, but sometimes that's vastly preferable to all the stat-heavy, mod-crazy options out there.

	GameSpy: Micro Machines V4 Review
		The gimmick behind these toys was that Micro Machines were even smaller than regular matchbox cars, while still featuring all the fine details of the larger models.
		Micro Machines V4 continues a long standing tradition of Micro Machines video games that have put fun before realism.
		With hundreds and hundreds of Micro Machine cars available, in such classes as sports cars, utility vehicles, lowriders, and concept cars, you've got a lot of work ahead of you if you're the type to want to unlock and find every last secret.

	CNN.com - Review: 'Micro Machines' swaps quality for quantity - Jul 28, 2006
		By licensing the "Micro Machines" brand from Hasbro, this latest console and PC racer puts you in control of teeny cars that whiz around the house in places such as the pool table, garden, bathtub rim and messy kitchen.
		Along with traditional three-lap races, game types in "Micro Machines V4" include a battle race, in which you earn points by pulling ahead of the pack, and checkpoint races, in which you earn more time once you pass through a checkpoint.
		While not a complete waste of time, "Micro Machines V4" is probably an ideal pick for less-demanding, younger racing game fans and for gamers who'll enjoy the car-collecting component.

	Micro Machines V4 - review - play.tm (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Micro Machines V4 is the most expansive and comprehensive Micro Machines title yet, providing everything and more that you'd expect from the gathering of mini motors.
		Micro Machines V4's main game consists of a variety of exhibitions that will test your skill (and patience) to the limits.
		Micro Machines V4's biggest mistakes, then, are in the aesthetic department, since otherwise a few iffy track designs and needless weapon inclusions are all that stop it from becoming a potentially classic little racer.

	Micro Machines v4 Review - PlayStation 2 Review - Australia's PAL Gaming Network
		If you're a Micro Machines fan then there's plenty to keep you occupied, but the multiplayer is going to be where the main appeal of the game lies once you get bored of the singleplayer.
		Micro Machines v4 isn't the game we were hoping for, and succeeds in being average in every sense of the word.
		Micro Machines v4 isn't the triumphant return to glory that we were hoping for, but a generic top-down racing game that's probably only going to appeal to retro fans who have been craving anything Micro Machines-related for a while now.

	Micro Machines v4: Review -- Strategy Informer
		A realized picture of the small cars we used to play in the 80s, these micro machines are meaner, better and faster.
		Micro Machine fanatics will squeal in fervor as nostalgia will be seen.
		Of course, Micro Machines wouldn’t be claiming its game fame without the game weapon arsenal and power-ups to hoard and use on your opponents to gain that unfair edge during the race.

	Micro Machines V4 (Playstation 2) Review at RewiredMind.com
		Micro Machines has been the ultimate party game since the days of the NES, and given that the last decent version was released the best part of ten years ago (Micro Machines V3), we were due a new edition to liven up these summer months.
		Micro Machines are a brand of toy car that are absolutely tiny, and hundreds of these little blighters have been recreated for you to race around with on your PS2, along with the kinds of locations that you’d probably race them around in real life — if you were eight years old.
		Micro Machines V4 is somewhat deeper than the previous iterations of the franchise.

		Micro Machines aren't nearly as popular now as they once were, but the miniature collectible cars are still racing in Micro Machines v4, yet another top-down racing game from Codemasters.
		As in previous Micro Machines games, the tracks you race on are all set in average, everyday places like a kitchen countertop, a garden, or a workbench.
		The sheer number of cars and tracks in Micro Machines v4 is impressive, but the actual racing just hasn't held up over the years.

	Review - Micro Machines V4 // PlayStation 2 /// Eurogamer
		The pseudo overhead viewpoint is retained, with a panning, zooming camera able to shift dynamically to ensure all the racers are in full view and so that tricky corners can be (in theory) negotiated with unobtrusive ease, and once again the tracks are littered with weapons to aid you on your charming little quest.
		Purely as an observation, the one-off Infogrames version of Micro Machines looked prettier than this, and that was nearly four years ago, but fortunately it really makes no real difference to the 15 year-old gameplay at the core.
		We're certainly not going to moan about the re-emergence of Micro Machines - it's still as fun and addictive as it ever was, and in many ways we'd place it up there with Mario Kart as one of those games you need to have a copy of in your collection for those inevitable post-pub sessions.

	Micro Machines V4 Review for PlayStation 2 - Gaming Age (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Micro Machines V4 Back when I was a young lad, Micro Machines hit the market and was received luke-warmly by children and collectors everywhere.
		The appeal was the fact you could get up to four cars in one package of Micro Machines, which led to kids having several hundred cars to play with.
		Not to say that Micro Machines is a bad game per say, it just does not offer the general public anything new and exciting to merit anything but a rental.

	Micro Machines V4 Review
		Bursting onto the scene at the end of the 1980s and becoming one of the iconic toys of the 1990s, Micro Machines were enjoyed by kids across North America and Europe, and loathed by parents who treaded on them barefoot.
		Back in the hands of the original developer (and publisher) of the very first title fifteen years ago, Micro Machines V4 on PlayStation2, PSP, PC, and DS (due in mid-July) aims to follow in the footsteps of Codies' Sensible Soccer 2006, and reinvigorate this dormant brand.
		As with Micro Machines titles of the past, V4 is more fun to play as a multiplayer game.

		The micro gp is good and you don`t just have to race the very annoying one screen ahead races, but you can if you want, good graphics, O.K controlls, a good game for the price.

	Micro Machines v4 Review for PS2 - Pro-G
		There was a time when you weren't anyone in the school playground unless you had some Micro Machines in your pocket.
		Previous Micro Machines titles had included some nice variety in vehicles, but in V4 you have to make do with four wheels, so no speed boats for us.
		As a harmless game for kids to play together, Micro Machines V4 serves its purpose, but a bit of flair and a larger scope could have made it the ultimate party racing game.

	Micro Machines v4 Review - PC
		Micro Machines v4 is not a bad game; it is just not the type of racing title that one truly expects from a motor-racing game in 2006.
		That said, if you are a fan of micro collectible cars, like the idea of head-to-head competition on the same machine, and enjoy racing around tracks built out of ordinary everyday locations, then you may enjoy this title.
		Micro Machines v4 is a top-down racing title that rounds the track of ordinary racing fare

		Yes, the little cars that you had (or have) as a kid, Micro Machines are the same just under a different name.
		Micro Machines V4 isn’t the best racing game on the market nor does it offer the most features in a racing game.
		However, Micro Machines V4 gives you plenty of fun in the multiplayer mode, which is something missing in some of the other big-name racing games.

		Micro Machines is one of those long-standing franchises that will probably never have a well defined target audience.
		If the idea of collecting the legions of Micro Machines isn't enough to hook your interest, you're likely to find that V4's gameplay isn't going to be what pulls you in.
		Just a heads up, Micro Machines gameplay doesn't have '~10 second sections of track before restarting people at a restart point'.

	Boomtown - PC - Micro Machines V4 review
		Micro Machines is one of the greatest series of all time but its heady days of being one of the best racing games around ended about ten years ago.
		For those of you that don’t know, Micro Machines are little collectable cars (tractors, hot air balloons, X-Wing Fighters etc.) that pretty much every male under thirty owns at least a couple of.
		This is the first official sequel since 1997 (ignoring the dire and entirely unrelated 2003 Micro Machines release) and as with Sensi, it is at best a mixed bag.

	IGN: Micro Machines V4 Review
		The latest installment in the series, Micro Machines V4, is definitely the strongest version to come along since the franchise debuted on the NES almost 20 years ago.
		Of course, the trade-off is that using a weapon slows down the speed of your vehicle considerably (especially the charge-type attacks), and because there are few power-ups found on the courses anyway, the game doesn't really encourage their use unless absolutely necessary.
		As I said, 90% of the time Micro Machines is all about racing (as it should be).
