Since I'm now on my arc of just enjoying what I'm interested in, it may be strange that I'm reviewing NASCAR Thunder 2004.
I mostly got curious about this game as I am currently in my rewatching old EmpLemon videos mood that I get once a year and his NASCAR videos in particular always interest me. This game was specifically mentioned in one of his videos about the decline of video games as the last good NASCAR title.
And yeah I'd have to agree this is just good old fashioned entertainment. The game allows you to customize your car, cause massive pileups, forge friendships and rivalries on the track and have your engine destroyed six ways from Sunday.
The fact that there are mechanics where debris can fall off from the cars and cause tire damage makes this game so fucking interesting to me, but I've also not played many racers so I can't speak on if this is a unique feature or not, but it's very engaging.
My favorite track is Martinsville, as it easily results in some of the most chaotic racing you can possibly see, massive pileups that take up an entire segment of the track, turning it into a burning hell of steel.
Really isn't much more to say other than that it's making me interested in watching NASCAR at some point. Give it a shot, you'll probably enjoy yourself.
