dayzs of thunder the game?

[JCal-MX]

whats this madness i stumbled across?

its looks horrible (n)

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Looks better then the Rioux mod. All kidding aside, that is the crappiest nascar game I've seen. I love how they sign up for anyone to make a game. SRD should make a game if they're handing out rights like old men hand out candy at a middle school. I either need to A.) Ask Nascar for their rights B.) Buy a van and candy or C.) All of the above.

At least it's only $9.99, they even have a nitrous boost.

It does look bad,but it also brings back memories. Some of you were not even born when Days of Thunder came out. I was 15 and I thought the movie was the best thing I ever saw. (watching it now it's kinda lame) I was a fan of NASCAR then but after the movie I was a fanatic! NASCAR should try to find a script that has a good story that might bring some fans back.

As for the first Days of Thunder game on Sega, it was epic!!! (at the time) The graphics were better than anything I had ever seen and the fact you could make a pit stop, WOW. It made Bill Elliott's NASCAR Challenge look awful.

If you never have seen that game, google it young pups. That's what I had to play when I was 14 on Commodore 64. Consider yourself lucky.

Yeah, plus a turbo boost.

Why would anyone make a modern day video game out of a movie that was released more than 20 years ago?


Eh, I'm gonna go make a Towering Inferno video game. BRB.

 

[JCal-MX]

the spotter sounds is the crew chief from the movie lol

 

[Harry Nurpplez]

Isn't this from like two years ago?

 

[JCal-MX]

no it ssys its new?

 

[Markfan]

It came out on February 22nd, this year.

 

[Scott Womack]

The spotter sounds are actually from the man who played Rowdy Burns played by Michael Rooker, one of the main characters of the movie.

When I saw this thread I thought it was about the old NES game of torture. It's been 20 years but I can still recall making a pit stop every time I scratched the wall. I don’t think I ever completed a race because my tires would wear down after 2 laps.

 

[B.McKeever]

I liked the pitstops in the NES version. Man, I could get those guys around and change those tires so damn fast.

I guess Nascar Thunder 2004 is going to be the "best" console Nascar game for awhile.

 

[TrevorBayne21]

How can you hate a game when you go 210 MPH at Martinsville!?

 

[celticfang]

And JJKasey/whoever does a McDowell and a simple pitstop can fix it?

I almost want a modern DoT remake by Paramount. I think it'd be so awful it'd be hilarious. I mean, the original was watchable at least, if not accurate

 

[dwp0124]

I still remember watching a night race at Bristol and Cruise showed up in the pits while they were filming for the movie. They kinda made it as 'TopGun comes to Nascar'.

That was well before his couch jumping days.

 

[celticfang]

Don't remind me of those
