Game Review - NASCAR Unleashed for Nintendo 3DS

Overview

Racers will break free from the ovals as they explode onto the pavements, beaches and off-road areas of some of the most beloved NASCAR® sanctioned race tracks. The thrill in re-discovering familiar tracks with a new twist gives NASCAR Unleashed™ a completely unchained stock car experience. See the sights, feel the salty ocean breeze and blast past the lofty skyscrapers; it’s a whole new world of NASCAR racing! Players will fight their way to be the best as NASCAR Unleashed brings the fun and excitement off the track and into your house as this arcade racer makes it way to the Xbox 360®, PlayStation®3, Wii™ and Nintendo 3DS™.

Key Features

• All-Star Pack: Fifteen of NASCAR’s biggest drivers make their appearance in the game! Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Kyle Busch, Joey Logano and many more!
  
• Racetrack Déjà Vu: Players will race on real life NASCAR sanctioned race tracks with a bit of a twist. Players will make their way across familiar parts of the track and burst into brand new areas they wouldn’t expect! Tracks include: Daytona International Speedway, Chicagoland Speedway, Homestead-Miami Speedway, Martinsville Speedway and Talladega Superspeedway.
  
• Bumper to Bumper: Bumping and grinding is the name of the game as players will have to fight their way up to pole position. Opponents won’t make it easy though as they’ll be every bit as ruthless as you on their quest to be the best!
  
• Race to Victory: The key to winning is the mastery of important NASCAR techniques like drafting and sling-shotting past the opposition. Players are awarded for skillful driving with a “boost” power-up that allows them to pull in front of the competition and go for the checkered flag.
  
• Arcade Action: Racing is wild, fast and crazy as players drift around corners and hit massive jumps while trying to avoid being wrecked.
  
• Unlockables Unleashed: After winning events, players will be rewarded with fun and goofy upgrades that can be used to customize their cars into something unique and outrageous.

My Take on the Games
I was lucky enough to be able to try out both the Nintendo 3DS versions of this game and I have to say that I was so impressed. The game itself transports you into the world of NASCAR and you are able to get into the driver seat and take off. The graphics in the game are great and with the fact that they have incorporated some of the best NASCAR drivers into the game itself, if you are a true fan, you will be mesmerized. The game provides hours of fun for the whole family and just realize that if you let others play this you might not get it back in the end as it is addictive and so much fun to play!
