Anyone playing the Xbox 360 Version?

I picked it up and the graphics are beautiful but the gameplay is pretty
tough. Maybe I have been playing Forza too much?

Anyone have thoughts on it?

It's no NR2003.

It awful actually.  No control of car under pitting, all cautions are
cutscenes as soon as they happen, no control under cautions, online is a
warpfest, no forcefeedback settings for wheel its full on 100% force all
time.  The graphics are bad, at least on Infineon, was a bleak jagfest.

Basically it is what you would expect from EA in a NASCAR sim title.

No PC version until at least Q1 2008. Maybe none at all. This comes from
a popular software outlet, so I cannot confirm it.

The demo was complete garbage. Everything about it sucked. The
responsiveness was not there. It's like there's a huge deadzone where the
car just doesn't respond and then when it does, it goes all over the place.
I kept trying thinking it was just me, but it just never felt any better.

Horrible game. It's gonna take a lot of fixing before i ever buy another EA
NASCAR game. I have NASCAR '04 for the XBox, and it's pretty fun. Maybe not
the most realistic, but it WAS fun. '08 is complete crap.
