EA Puts Brakes on NASCAR Games, No NASCAR 10 This Year

Quote:
"Sources inside EA Sports have confirmed that NASCAR Kart Racing for the Wii is the only NASCAR video game they will be releasing calendar year 2009.

That means no NASCAR 10 for the 360 or PlayStation 3.

And with EA's NASCAR license expiring after this year, it looks like the state of NASCAR gaming could be in for a major change.

When asked for an official quote, an EA Sports spokesperson confirmed the rumors, but would only go on record to say: "We are continuing our conversations with NASCAR, but nothing has been announced regarding the license or future projects and we don't have any further announcements at this time."
Come on Papyrus!!!

Seems like a lot of people dig Race Pro that just came out. Not as pretty as Forza, but lots of people are saying it's a better driving experience.

It would be cool if somebody would release a Nascar game of Gran Turismo 5 quality. I've got my G25 logitech steering wheel / pedals and shifter ready.

Bad news for me i love 09. you guys that don't think the game is good' it's probably because you didn't play the game enough........setups is a big part of it and finding friends to race with. I race every fri & sat nite and have a blast.

EA NASCAR games are horrible compared to Papyrus. It was a true simulation racing game when they had it. EA makes an arcade verison...

Also EA killed to HUGE online following that Papyrus had. Custom cars, tracks, etc...

Who cares? I'm still playing my PC game with Nascar 3 and Nascar 2k3. That's the best there is.

EA's Nascar sims have been nothing more than a huge joke.
