I have downloaded the Demo, and I wasn't that impressed... I am not a big NASCAR fan, but I am a racing fan, and loved the old Papyrus Nascar games. I do think the graphics are just ok, but they still look soft, and the shading makes the car look like its floating on the road, rather than driving on it. I have GT5P, and those graphics are GREAT. I liked the way NASCAR09 handles the yellow flag, and I hope yellow flag racing is better online, compared to the older online races. I raced the first race in default mode and won, I changed to Veteran, and turned off all the assists, and came from the rear of the pack and took the lead after 3 laps... I sure hope that those are not the final games setting, because I know I am not that good...

EDITED: After reading GreyFoxx4's comments, I see there is a way to change the opponents difficulty level... I would have thought those settings should have been in the SETTINGS menu...

I like the paint-shop, and could use my photoshop skills to good use making cars... Here is my first attempt.

If you need a car made, let me know...

I enjoy Sim racing (GT5) and not the arcade racing (Dirt/Burnout). I just might get this game, after hearing about '08 dissapointment. Now all I need is a wheel... Happy Birthday to Me, Happy Birthday to Me... YEAH!

Here is your answer... http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/driving/nascar09/show_msgs.php?topic_id=m-1-42096276&pid=945382

Thanks to you both for the reply... I didnt want to spend $200+ for a wheel. I did read that the Driving Force EX worked on both the PC and PS3 (GT5p)... I will research a little more and maybe give that one a try. I might end up with the G25 after all.

Thanks again...

Logitech's Driving Force GT Wheel for the PS3, that was released yesterday (4/28/08)... I see that it has a USB connection to the PS3, does that mean it can also be used on a PC as the G25 Wheel is??? I would like a wheel I could use on both my PS3 and my PC... I currently do not have any racing games for the PC, but with future cames coming out, I want the capability to use the wheel on both... If that is not so, then I will stick with the PS3... if GT5P is any indication of the future of racing games... Nice! :D

Can anyone recommend a Wheel for both the PS3 and PC... I have searched, but all the information I have found is from last year, and I am not sure if those items are still being made, or that they have been updated to work with Windows Vista... (yes, I run windows Vista... :roll:)

Thanks.... ;)
