Well I got NASCAR 08 last night and played a bit today. I have to say that up until now I'm not really that impressed. The graphics are not any where near "next generation" in fact they don't look very much different than when I was playing on my XboX 3-4 years ago. The game starts off with you picking a color scheme for your own car and after several hours of playing, I haven't yet been able to race that car. In addition, the handling of the cars is horrible, the car constantly wants to drift left, maybe that has something to do with the cambre of the tires?!?!?! Havn't figured out yet how or if I can adjust that setup. Overall, up until this point, I'm pretty pissed that I spent $63.00 for a game that pretty much sucks. Called GameStop this afternoon and they are willing to give me a whopping $25.00 for the game as a trade in...awesome!!!! I guess I'll give it a bit more time and hopefully it will grow on me. Right now, I really wish I had picked up Dirt instead.
