Good game, hard to play with controller. Works much better with the steering wheel and pedals.
This game will give you an all new respect for the real drivers. This is not a game for the average driver. Even the beginner setting are more then a handful for me. I have both the 08 and 09 games and I do like the lay out and the caracteristics of the 08 game just a little better.
but it is fun to to turn of traction control and ABS and spin at daytona. this game is fun on superspeedways but the rest stink.for one thing the new career mode is lkame the old fight to the top career mode was way better. also the breaking help even on high barely works. another problem is there is no make and model on trucks or COTS. do not buy this game and get 09 because it has the old career mode where u start in truck and wsork your way up to cup.let me imply again the 08 career mode is reely bad.EA all ur sports games r good accept 4 this one.very bad game
They all pretty much look like chevy's top me so when your driving for lets say Roush Racing it looks like your driving a Chevy. Overall the game is really good. I am a big NASCAR fan and I was really excited to get this game. Another thing that I would have liked was the addition of some of the Busch specific tracks, i.e. There are, however, a few minor things that I would have liked better. First off I the biggest thing for me was the fact that all of the COT cars look EXACTLY the same. Nashville, Indianapolis Raceway Park, and others that they have actually included in previous games. All in all this game is fun and unless you are a diehard fan like I am these little things shouldn't bother you.
The COT versions all have the same headlights/grille, just different paint/graphics. These cars are HARD to drive, driving assists don't do much, help VERY little. Not many drivers available in Truck or Busch/National series, lots of drivers missing in Cup (Carl Edwards)., and the cars don't look very realistic. NO 2 player, NO team control, NO shared draft, NO intimidator. I have several of the NASCAR X Box games, and I got a new XBOX360 just to play this game, with the COT and the new drivers/lineup. I've adjusted the car all the way to the "Tight" side and still had it act loose. Not much for alternate paint schemes, very few. The trucks all look the same, regardless of manufacturer.
Rules are very strict.just a little contact (due to the difficult handling) and you get black flagged and put to the back. There on the old car. This is NOTHING like the 02-07 NASCAR games, it's completely different. No 2 player option makes it hard to enjoy. All the COTs have a huge BLANK spot on the rear bumper.I guess it's too hard for EA to add the proper "DODGE" and "FORD" to the rear bumper of the COT. The old cars look like their rear counterparts, the COTs look nothing like the real COTs. If you spin out, you're automatically put to the back (rough driving). I'm starting to wish that I had waited for the 09 game, now.maybe I'll just play the 07 game for another year.
