What Gamespot Users have to say about NASCAR 08

  • Rating:7.5

    A lot better than what critics and people who don't know how to play a nascar game give it credit for.

    When I read the reviews that people were giving this, I was a bit cautious of this game. Then I realized a lot of haters don't like games like this that are "too realistic". If you are a PGR, Forza, Grand Turismo fan, yo... Read Full Review

    NASCAR '08 is ALMOST there....

    Nice to see that EA is FINALLY "getting in gear" as far as the NASCAR brand is concerned. However...all is not perfect in "left-turn land". The graphics and playability are smack on...almost to the point of PC si... Read Full Review

    I've played all the nascar race games and I've got to tell you NASCAR 08 Sucks!

    Don't waste your money on NASCAR 08 EA Sports really dropped the ball on this one! Nothing about this game is fun, its very difficult to play if not impossible. Before you can race in the cup series you must pass a seri... Read Full Review

    MAJOR letdown!

    The fact that Tony couldn't even bother to shave for the cover SHOULD have been an indication of how the game was going to look and play...ROUGH! Being a NASCAR fan for over 35 years...I've seen it all. The Petty yea... Read Full Review

    Needs to get better.

    This game wasn't one of the best but its good enough for me to keep playing it. I think this game needs improvement and should go to the fans for help. Ever since NASCAR Thunder 2005 the games haven't been good like NASC... Read Full Review
