NASCAR '15 Out Now on Steam, PS3 and Xbox 360


NASCAR '15 is out today. So if you are looking to look at Jeff Gordon's beautiful virtual face one last time before he retires, this is your ticket (until he's probably a legend in future versions of the game).

The game is out now on Steam and can be downloaded for $19.99. It is not out yet on the Xbox 360 or PS3 marketplaces, but there were rumors it may be a digital download weeks back so we will update this post if it shows up in those stores.

If you have picked up the game, feel free to post any impressions below.
Platform: PC / PS3 / Xbox 360

I am downloading it now on Xbox360. I don't expect much, if any, difference from last year but I'll let folks know if anything stands out.

Don't expect much. It's the exactly the same as '14 just with updated rosters and rules for the Chase. They did say that so you can't be too upset. Glad it was only $20

This is where I wish PS4 and XBOX One was backwards compatible so I could just play it on the PS4.

I'll wait a few days to see the reviews but don't expect much. But if I get the itch I may download.

Re: NASCAR '15 Out Now on Steam, PS3 and Xbox 360

Traded in NASCAR 14 and surprisingly got $12.50 credit for it with my GameStop rewards card so only paid $8.89 for 15. Can't beat that.
___________

As expected, the game is pretty much the same as 14. One issue I'm having though is that every time I start a career, Sam Hornish Jr. is one of the 3 drivers that are left out. I've restarted numerous times and the 3 drivers left out have been 1 of 4 combinations

Sam Hornish Jr., Erik Jones, Regan Smith (9 times)
Sam Hornish Jr., Erik Jones, J.J. Yeley. (10 time)
Ty Dillon, Sam Hornish Jr., Erik Jones (3 times)
Justin Allgaier, Sam Hornish Jr., Erik Jones (8 times)

Re: NASCAR '15 Out Now on Steam, PS3 and Xbox 360

Anyone got recommended settings?

Controls, AI, Assists, anything and everything would be welcome. I'm using an XBox 360 controller and not a wheel so I'm sure I need to tweak some things.

Never played one of the NASCAR games on 360 before, so for $20 I said "why the hell not?"

Hmm...found this review via Google. It's not pretty.

http://pretendracecars.net/2015/05/2...-need-to-read/

Looks like the reviews on Steam aren't all that great either; laced with sarcasm, no doubt but a little indicative of what to expect.

No doubt; for $20 and a last gen title, I suppose we shouldn't expect much. I doubt that this game will even get a patch, if it's needed.

In all honesty, I did enjoy NTG:IL quite a bit, but it's sad to see that the bugs and glitches of that game are still prevalent 2-3 years later. If I was 100% certain I was getting a PS4 or XBOne this Xmas, I think I'd just wait to see what Dmi can do from the ground up with 2016.

I guess I'll see if I can find this for $10 or less on Amazon or eBay some time next month.

Oh, and what's up with 5 Hour energy's absence? Licensing issue? Something else? I understand the alcohol sponsors, but an energy drink?

I think I'll wait and see if Steam puts it on sale and then look into purchasing it.
