The heat has been shut off on this year’s NASCAR title, and in its place is a fresh start for developer Motorsport Games. So it’s fitting that this year’s title is now called Ignition, but is this a strong enough debut to get things rolling, or does this one fail to turn over? Like all things in life, this one is a little of both.
NASCAR Heat 5 is nearly a carbon copy of last year’s game, especially if you partake in the career mode. As with my review of last year’s NASCAR Heat 4, that year’s previous year’s NASCAR Heat 3 had a good thing going for it and was the same solid game. NASCAR Heat 5 is still that same solid game; it’s unfortunate that we get no significant improvements this year.
NASCAR Heat 4 is this series’ most solid title to date but also the one with the most minimal of changes. NASCAR Heat 3 had a good thing going for it, so kudos to the team for keeping Heat 4 so close to what we got in 3. That’s not to say there aren’t some flaws and things I would like to see improved.
Monster Games is back with their newest NASCAR Heat title. This year they’ve overhauled the Career mode, which is something Iâve been longing for since the EA NASCAR days. NASCAR Heat 3 delivers a fun time but not without some hiccups.
Pull tight those racing gloves because NASCAR Heat returns to bring some white knuckle racing to consoles. Monster Games is back as developer on NASCAR Heat 2 and is published by 704 Games, formerly Dunesberry-Martin Racing. In a lot of ways, Heat 2 is a step forward for the series yet drops the ball hard. So NASCAR fan, should you shell out your hard earned money this year? Read onâŠ
Back in the early 2000âs there were two main forces when it came to Stock Car Auto Racing video games, Papyrusâ NASCAR Racing series and EAâs yearly NASCAR titles. Monster Games lit a fire in the genre with NASCAR Heat and cemented itself as a name to be reckoned with. I remember the original titles leaning more âarcadeyâ than the semi-sim of EAâs titles and the full-sim of Papyrusâ, giving those who just wanted fast cars and lots of passing something they could easily sit down and play. Now Monster Games have returned with Dusenberry Martin Racing to reignite that spark with NASCAR Heat: Evolution.
