Nascar The Game 2013 

 

Sometimes I wonder if anyone actually reads my reviews. Hour put into playing a game, then hours on the review, and then Proofing makes changes, and finally the editing. Quite a few man hours put into imparting impressions and opinions. At times I see game after game repeat the same mistakes I called out years ago.

Then a game like Nascar The Game 2013 comes out on the Personal Computer and I know there is at least one company out there listening. There is at least one company paying attention. How do I know this? They implemented improvements that I requested in home console versions of the game.

If you are a PC gamer and love Nascar then Nascar The Game 2013 is the game for you. There are numerous real world racers, tracks, cars, and more in this game. Nascar The Game 2013 looks amazing on the PC too. It should since it is over eight gigs. The crew chief is astounding. He makes it feel real - most of the time.

Nascar The Game 2013 makes it more difficult to turn around and go the opposite direction. When I did I received multiple verbal reprimands. Nothing nasty, more of we do not do that here, and you are better than this. Nascar The Game 2013 made me feel guilty about creating such massive destruction. This is one of the things I like about this game.

I love it when a video game encourages us to good behavior. Nascar The Game 2013 does that in spades. It even recommends we let other racers pass us on the right, left, above, or below. This kind of good sportsmanship is not in every sports game. I appreciate seeing this kind of effort.

If you have played the home console version of Nascar The Game 2013 then there is little new for you. Expect the same solid racing game. The PC version of Nascar The Game 2013 looks better, and includes a bit more. If you are enjoying it on another system it is tough to recommend it on the PC.

The controls feel a little tighter to me on the PC version of Nascar The Game 2013. It may have something to do with the PC game controller we have versus controllers on the home console machines. I found it easier to stay off the walls in this version. Bashing into other cars was another story altogether. That takes some time and skill.
