NASCAR Thunder 2002

For Xbox NASCAR action, it?s a choice between Thunder and Heat, and EA Sports? ride is running strongly.

NASCAR Thunder 2002 is also revving up for its Xbox debut, and like NHL, it?s pretty tough to tell the difference between the Xbox and PS2 versions?which isn?t a bad thing at all. The preview version sported slightly better graphics that were particularly eye-catching for their richer colors and crisper lighting. Otherwise, your choice of whether to buy the PS2 or Xbox version will probably boil down to which hardware you own or prefer.

Under its hood, Thunder was running smoothly with a 43-car pack on the track, a large selection of Winston and Busch drivers, and all the real-life NASCAR tracks. While you?ll be able to assume the role of your favorite driver and race a full season, Thunder?s real charm is its Career mode, which lets you start out as a no-name scrub, earn the attention of sponsors, and try to win the championship over a 20-year period. If you?re into stock cars and Xboxes, NASCAR Thunder 2002 is shaping up to be a sweet ride?as long as it can handle the pressure from Infogrames? equally promising NASCAR Heat 2002.
