Family Friendliness:
We love the easy-to-play driving and use of real-life drivers and paint jobs in Nascar Unleashed.  Even though the racing is not necessarily realistic, we think that’s what makes it a fun video game to play, and a great experience for families looking for head-to-head competition.


Highlights:
- We love how the drivers and cars are realistic in Nascar Unleashed, but the gameplay places more of an emphasis on fun than realism.  Cars can handle quite a bit of damage before you need to pull through the pits for repairs.

Lowlights:
- Taking out other drivers is a key part of this game, which may be seen by some as unnecessarily aggressive.

Game Details:

This fun racing game from Activision features real-life Nascar drivers in over-the-top racing environments.

We love Nascar Unleashed as a great competitive game that’s perfect for head-to-head family action.  The controls are very simple and forgiving, with driving consisting of accelerating, steering and drifting in order to take corners quickly.

As you progress through the game in single player mode, you’ll earn new paint jobs for familiar cars such as Kyle Busch’s M&Ms car. There’s also the ability to customize your own paint job and create your own car.

Cars can take some damage during the race, and a big element of Nascar Unleashed is taking out other drivers.  It’s a bit aggressive, but overall nothing that we were too concerned with as far as violence goes.

We love the easy-to-play driving and use of real-life drivers and paint jobs in Nascar Unleashed.  Even though the racing is not necessarily realistic, we think that’s what makes it a fun video game to play, and a great experience for families looking for head-to-head competition.
