VGW's Daniel Wise: When our editor approached me to pen this review for “NASCAR: The Game 2011″, I actually wanted to dive right in. Ever since I nestled my way into that little haven between Maryland and Virginia, I suddenly feel this strange feeling of Southern appeal. Perhaps there’s just a different feeling one gets when they travel below the Mason-Dixon line. Even as I sit here with my laptop, outside, and a steak on the grill; as pasta cooks inside and a that gentle southern air whisks across my face. I could almost see myself at nearby Martinsville, Richmond, Pocono or Dover. I could have almost envisioned myself last week as I watched the race at Martinsville on the tele that I could have been in those stands; holding my breath as Dale Earnhardt Jr. had a close win snuffed out by the masterful maneuvering and throttle of Kevin Harvick’s #29 Impala
Dead Pixel Live interviewed the VP of Eutechnyx, Ed Martin, about developing Activision's NASCAR The Game 2011. Topics covered in the nearly hour long talk include Ed's early days at Papyrus and Electronic Arts, the evolution of NASCAR as a sport, and where NASCAR The Game is headed in the future. We also find out how Kinect and PSMove may figure into future games, the difficulties of getting 43 cars on screen at once, and even how a paint job can effect the development of a racing game.
TheGamingExperience says: "As for single player though, this game does truly shine. If you have ever played the previous installments of the Nascar franchise, you would remember that they lacked depth and realism. Well Eutechnyx has put both of them into it with the ROBUST create-a-car / drive feature; as for realism, well let’s just say if you’re not first, you’re last. If you really want that competitiveness that is Nascar"
Neocrisis: Nascar The Game 2011 is a Nascar Simulation game for the fans! The graphics in this game a very good, almost life life. The controls are also good and do what they are supposed to. Music in this game really set the mood of Nascar. Gameplay is as good as a sim sports game can be. This is not a perfect sports sim though!
this game sucks.
