Cheap NASCAR: Unleashed

Customer Ratings:

The only thing this game has in common with NASCAR is a licensing deal that lends it driver names, car paint schemes, and the NASCAR brand name.

NASCAR: Unleashed is an arcade style racer where any semblance of realism is completely tossed out the window. With the exception of the Daytona Oval track, all races are done through city streets and winding roads (some even dirt) strewn with obstacles and ramps to launch off of. The controls are also quite twitchy which often turns the game into little more than a glorified demolition derby as you careen off cars and walls.

The campaign game mode is rather short, being easy enough to beat in a few days, but the time trials can be frustrating if you try to earn gold trophies on each track. That all said, the game is fun for a short time, but the repetitive nature and AI rubber-banding quickly wear that away.

Read description and thought it might be fun. Little difficult to figure out all options. But was a good choice

Honest reviews on NASCAR: Unleashed

This game looked a bit more fun than the NASCAR simulation games. I am a fan of racing, including Nascar, but I find myself fast forwarding races instead of watching the full events these days. Simulation games are just as boring to me. Similar to golf, it would be more exciting if I was there in person or participating myself. That said, this looked like a goofy racing game.

It IS a goofy racing game, but it's also riddled with problems. The controls are simple, but the AI is annoying at best. It's built in for AI to catch up if left behind and it's more and more difficult to stay in the lead as the computer players tend of fly up behind you and smash you into barrel rolls or obstacles. The game is relatively easy, as are most of the achievements. Most you will achieve just by finishing races. There are not that many races and this game should be an easy 1000 GS to anyone playing it.

Racing game fans will not enjoy it, however. The physics are not great, even for an arcade game. I guess I just expect a lot out of games these days, but it's really not a good game. I will finish it and not hate myself for doing so, but many people would not finish it. I would say this is better left to the achievement hunters and let the racing fans move on to Forza, Project Gotham Racing, or even Need for Speed (even that those games are terrible too).

This game is not realistic NASCAR driving but it's a lot of fun. I bought this for my son for Christmas and I think I am having more fun playing it. This game is good for anyone even the grandparents come over and play.
