Bad

Huge Disappointment

The graphics are amazing and audio is much improved. The music selection is slim but you can always add your own tracks. The control is awful. It is near impossible to do anything on easy. half the time all you do is spin out. Now I understand this on harder levels but on the easiest level it had my son almost in tears as he had been waiting for this and couldn't complete 1 task or even compete in a race. I was able to complete a couple tasks but after several hours of swearing and getting frustrated. The easy level should be exactly what it means easy control. The draft is an interesting feature but impairs your vision so bad you hit the wall. There are just too many things going on. I have tried to change the controls but it all feels so sluggish. Maybe better with a steering wheel perhaps. I actually prefer 05 much better than to this monstrosity. Hopefully Madden will get my mind off of Nascar in a couple weeks...

The game has a good look to it, but the reason that i gave it a lower rating was because it didn't have enough to keep me interested. i played it for about an hour and decided to send it back. the controls are extremely sensitive which makes it difficult. if u like nascar games, maybe u should give it a try. u might find it more appealing then i did.
