What They Say:
Check out these quotes from reviews & previews
"The game is months from completion, and it already sports 60 frames per second, high resolution, thousands of colors, and photo-realistic racing action."
"NASCAR Heat 2002 chooses to err on the side of simulation racing and, for the most part, comes off as a highly realistic replica of stock-car racing."
"With really nice graphics, solid sound, and easy controls, this game should have held my attention for longer. But, since it missed the boat regarding that special something (fun for extended lengths of time) and it really can be “too much” in the options department, I honestly must say this is for the real race fans -- not the casual gamer."
"If you're worried about difficulty (and if you've played a realistic NASCAR sim, you should be), you'll be able to wuss out in Normal mode, AKA "bumping into that car won't send me flying into the stands" mode..."
"...the game doesn't deliver enough of a broad experience to give less than sim racers the road experience they're probably looking for."
