Each of these regions were chosenīecause of their contribution to NASCAR history. Winding courses that took players through one of severalĪmerican-inspired environments. Rumble was anything but a sim, there were no ovals here but instead The tracks that the cars raced in also got an exaggerated treatment. That grew up on Hot Wheels would dream of. These were the types of rides that NASCAR fans The profile of the car was more aggressive, the stance a little widerĪnd tires more sporty. The hood, the rear wing spoiler would become larger and more stylized. Enormous engine blocks would stick out from These souped-up vehicles owed more than a littleĭebt to hot rod culture.
#NASCAR RUMBLE CARS PRO#
Pro and elite versions not only changed the appearance but the Vehicle had three versions that the player could unlock.
#NASCAR RUMBLE CARS SERIES#
Series vehicles and legendary racers like Richard Petty. Since it was a licensed game the studio was able to put in renders ofĪctual cars from the NASCAR circuit, complete with accurate paint Number of arcade themes and made them work well for the aging console. Titles released for the original Playstation. There is no internal view, only bumper cam so I pretty much stay in one of the various chase views throughout the game.Ġ0:00:00 Elite Championship Followed by Ending FMV (Standard)Ġ1:49:50 Elite EA Championship (Standard)Ġ2:25:30 Elite Random Race Championship (Standard)Ġ2:43:10 3 Bonus Races followed by promo video and credits.Nascar Rumble by EA was one of the last great racing The game does feature replays after races but are not all that memorable so I don't show these more than a few times and even then only for one lap.
The last track I set to Mayhem to show why it would be a bad idea to play championship like that ) Instead I show off the 3 remaining bonus tracks. I did not bother with this as there is no more FMV to unlock at its another 2 hours of same old racing. At this point I could replay the championship in Legend mode where if I win I will unlock the respective Legend car. The other Legends were unlocked by winning the races. I then play the Elite Random Championship which unlocks the ability to race with the final Legend NASCAR driver. You can race the EA championship in Rookie and Pro, but it only unlocks the car for that difficulty so I didn't bother with those. I then play the EA Championship to unlock the EA NASCAR. All the NASCAR are pretty much the same apart from branding but the bonus cars all handle very differently.Īfter clearing Elite Championship I finally unlock the Ending FMV for what it was worth. During all 3 championships I pretty much use the bonus cars exclusively coz. By the time I start Elite, I have all the bonus cars.
It's only in pro mode they all become available so I am able to show the misses bonus cars in this run.
#NASCAR RUMBLE CARS FULL#
I couldn't chance this with Elite championship so switched to Single racer mode so that I was in full control of my score.ĭuring the Rookie championship I unlock some bonus cars, but they can not be all unlocked yet (Which I didn't know when I was looking for them). I could tell during pro that the game was putting my team mate with a distinct disadvantage, sometimes leaving him right at the back of the pack the whole race. I play through Rookie and Pro in Cyberteam mode where I can choose a teammate to race with and we can combine our points at the end of each race. It doesn't take long for the game to feel like its outstaying its welcome. You have to do the entire championship again on pro and again on elite. The game is not yet complete though, oh no. This goes on for 18 races consisting of 4 laps over 6 locals. The game starts off quite promising and fun with all the cars bashing each other about crashing and general mayhem from the powers ups. All tracks are fictional and no actual race tracks are represented in the game. The game Features NASCARs but also karting style power ups and a variety of racing surfaces and environments. The game is very much an arcade racer, a massive departure from the usual NASCAR Simulation game series. NASCAR Rumble released by EA in the year 2000.
