NASCAR 2000

Driving Game from EA Sports, by Stormfront Studios

Part of this successful series of racing games. It features 33 cars and drivers and 18 tracks authentic tracks from the US NASCAR circuit. With speeds up to 180 mph the racing action is fast and furious. Game options include championship, single race and multi-player modes. There is also an option to race head-to-head with one of NASCAR's best ever drivers, Richard Petty (aka The King). Race length varies from 15 to some 200 laps. In championship mode, practice, qualifying sessions and races are reproduced.

There is a good range of vehicle set-up options and interactive pits where you can adjust your car mid race or qualifying session. The game's interface and control system is effective and the vehicle physics quite realistic.

The graphics have been improved since the last game in the series. Although, you can run into your opponents, crashes are not reproduced realistically. The audio is generally good and a TV-style commentary is incorporated.
