What's great about it:?better graphics than NASCAR 08 What's not so great:?barely any real Nationwide or Truck drivers "NASCAR 09 might be the worst NASCAR game ever made by EA Sports. This game has so few real drivers to choose from in the Nationwide Series and only 4 real drivers in the Craftsman Truck Series. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Hands down the most realistic racing sim I've ever played What's not so great:?lack of rewards for a season "I want a video of a banquet or at least holding up the championship trophy after I spend so much time to win the cup! That being said, that is the only thing I don't love about this years game so far. I'm a former NASCAR pit crew member as well as a race car driver, and I've even tested Cup cars on Kansas, Talladega, Richmond and Darlington, and I can tell you that this game plays remarkably like the real cars drive. The clutch effect could use some help so that it doesn't drop at 6000 rpm, but everything else feels dead on. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?The Racing Is Awsome What's not so great:?NO Manufactures and Multiplayer "To me the game has the best racing from any nascar game, I love the fact you can set the car up any way you want. I my self play on expert with no assists what so ever. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?There are alot of different sponsors and contracts to choose from What's not so great:?you cant make you own team, no team control, only three series. "In my cons i listed that there is no way to make your own team, i refer to nascar 05-06, you could earn money and purchase your own team and hire drivers as such. Second i listed no team control, tyhere is almost no way to tell who your team mates are(unless you are on hendrick, RCR ect.)Then lastly they only have Craftsman trucks, Nationwide sewreis, and Sprint cup series. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?CoT available What's not so great:?Game play glitches, engine sound is off "I've been playing '09 for awhile and have experienced numerous games glitchs. However, there have been several updates/patches that are slowing improving the game play. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?great graphics, fun if your a mechanical engineer What's not so great:?besides being made by EA? car setups can be a pain. game freezing up "i was excited to get this game after the mess that was nascar 08. game play is good. from Bestbuy.com First - I love racing games. I love all kinds of racing games. But NASCAR has been a terrible game since it first came out years ago. Now here we are with NASCAR 09 and the graphic engine is horrid. from Amazon.com Most of the bugs online have been fixed, but EA decided rather than hosting all the custom paintschemes so that all playes could see each others cars, you must be a friend of a player to see his/her customized ride. Major bummer. My suggestion: if you LOVE NASCAR, and absolutely positively need the most up to date edition, go for it. However, if you are just looking for a fun racing game, I suggest you look elsewhere (Grid and Burnout, while they are arcade racers, are a heck of a lot of fun online). from Amazon.com I made a mistake. Having owned an earlier game in EA's NASCAR series for the PS2, I bought NASCAR 09 for my son's new Xbox360 without looking at the box and learning that it's a 1-Player game. You see, we used to have a lot of fun racing against each other. from Amazon.com The game play is much improved over last year. The 09 version has many more driver assists, so a new player can start racing without continuously crashing into walls and other cars. So this year I'm actually enjoying playing the game. from Amazon.com
