zerojatrix's Full Review: NASCAR 2001 for PlayStation 2
First - I rated this a 3 and recommended it based on the ability to play demolition derby!!!
Ok, here is the low down on this game. For what the game was designed to do...it is HORRID. If you want to play it because you LIKE nascar and all that, buy a different game. However, if you want to SLAM Nascar's BEST into walls and each other, PLAY ON!
The graphics on this game are horrid, no question. In fact, even the "replay" at the end of the race is the worst I have ever seen. If you are planning on actually playing the game and turn the "speed boost" off when you are lagging behind the other cars...wow...very dull game. But, if you turn the speed boost on and race backwards....it is a GREAT game.
What you do is get a friend, play two player, and play TAG!!! That's right, racing's best are out playing tag! You go one way around the track and your friend goes the other and you play tag....it is actually kind of hard if you are going really fast. But when you hit...WOW!
Second, both of you go around the track backwards but one of you stay a decent way back so you can watch your partner take out a massive line of cars just in time for you to plow into them yourself.
