THE LAST GOOD EA NASCAR GAME       rating
by:       on: 03-Feb 2010

SERIES



Modifieds: The best thing about this game,wish they'd include some dirt tracks for modifieds
Trucks: Trucks are fun,just wish they'd include a few more truck only tracks(Myrtle Beach)instead of driving on so many fantasy tracks
Busch Series: Nascar JR You race in cars that are pretty much identical to Cup cars, except they have less powerful engines.Still again a few more Busch only tracks should have been included instead of fantasy tracks.
Cup Series: This is it. The Cup Series. The most horsepower of anything in the game. The most adrenaline. The most everything.



The only problem with this game, once you pick the settings in the Fight for the Top mode, you're stuck with them (unless you want to start new game). That's a problem because, as you progress, you'll need less and less "driver assist" and will want to compete agains better AI competitors (rookies, veterans, legends) and change other settings related to tire wear, refueling, damage, etc.That being said with EA's Nascar contract up,this looks like the last really good EA Nascar game.Anything after this just doesn't controll worth a crap(06 thru 09).With this one you get both,full on assist mode where your gameplay is more arcade style.Or you can take take off all assists and it's more like a simulation,where you have to fine tune cars to keep them on the track.No matter which system you own,PS2/PS3-Gamecude/Wii- Xbox get this game.As of this interview,it's not playable on Xbox 360.Two years since last 360 emulator update,doesn't looke like another is forthcoming.

Purchased this game for 5 year old grandson, who is an avid NasCar fan. He had had his parents rent the game multiple times and I bought it for him to save a little money over time. He really enjoys it and is quite a race car driver. I want to buy him a steering wheel controller for his game cube for his 6th birthday in July.
