Looney Tunes: Space Race is a 2000 kart-racing video game published by Infogrames. It was originally announced as a Nintendo 64 game in 1998,[1][2] under a different developer, but was later moved to the Dreamcast and developed through Infogrames' own Melbourne House studio.[3] It was ported to PlayStation 2 in 2002 (under the name "Space Race") with a new tournament mode.[4]

Reception

Evan Shamoon reviewed the Dreamcast version of the game for Next Generation, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that "Despite one frustrating design decision, this is a beautifully presented and eminently likable game – and easily the best kart racer on Dreamcast."[24]

The Dreamcast version was met with positive reviews upon release while the PlayStation 2 version received mixed reviews. GameRankings and Metacritic gave it a score of 77.77% and 83 out of 100 for the Dreamcast version,[5][7] and 62.63% and 62 out of 100 for the PlayStation 2 version.[6][8]
