IGN: "NASCAR The Game 2011 is eight weeks deep into the racing season on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, but the Wii version only now approaches the starting line. While Eutechnyx hit some high points on the other consoles, this Wii outing simply doesn't deliver on graphics, options, and overall experience.
NASCAR The Game 2011 on Wii also lacks online multiplayer. While the other consoles had their fair share of technical glitches in online races, the Wii only supports split-screen action. While it's fun to tinker around a track with a friend, this means the majority of one's competition comes from A.I. alone."
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!
