Racing on Xbox

I've got Project Gotham Racing, Rallisport Challenge, and Sega GT 2002. Wondering what you guys recommend next? I'm not a big fan of NASCAR, but I'm considering NASCAR Heat. Is it pretty good?

Have you played the PC version of Heat? It's pretty much the same, but with updated cars and improved graphics. Still the same annoying AI though. Still the same wide viewing angle that makes it difficult to see your markers approaching. But also still the same friendly physics, and I definitely think it is better than it's only real competitor, NASCAR Thunder for the Xbox. In some ways I actually like the Xbox version of Heat better than the PC version, because the PC version has never really felt right with my wheel. I guess if you haven't tried the PC version I would recommend renting it first to make sure you like it, because it's no NR2002 but it's still basically a very good game.

Wait for NASCAR Thunder 2003. It's using the F1 2002 physics engine and is being developed by an different EA team (Tiburon - dev. of Madden football). EA is trying to bring NASCAR to the same level of quality as F1 2002. They're even taking on Papy with a PC version. While I don't expect NT 2003 to be better than Papy's latest sim it will probably be superior to the now dated NASCAR Heat (Ed Martin from NASCAR Heat is now heading up the NASCAR Thunder 2003 team). -- Joe Marques "Fastfwd" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I've got Project Gotham Racing, Rallisport Challenge, and Sega GT 2002. > Wondering what you guys recommend next?

Why is there no F1 2002 for the Xbox? "Joe Marques" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:epVf9.473405$[email hidden]... > Wait for NASCAR Thunder 2003.

It was released in Europe but not in the US. Solid reviews from simulation fans. 2001 probably didn't sell well in the US so I don't know if we'll see it. -- Joe Marques "Fastfwd" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Why is there no F1 2002 for the Xbox? > > "Joe Marques" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:epVf9.473405$[email hidden]... > > Wait for NASCAR Thunder 2003.
