NASCAR 25 impressions from the videos I've watched:
• The ambient sound and wall reverb is chef's kiss
•AI has good awareness and actually move their line around
•I noticed some AI conga lines in a Texas video. Didn't like that
•The AI takes unrealistic lines at certain tracks. Hopefully they can adjust that in the final version
•Cut scenes look good, I do wish it was more to the pre race. I want commentators talking about you and your competition. Basically I want thunder 2004 or f1 games type of pre race
•Love the sound of the rumble stripes
•Driving physics look fine. They don't look wonky.
•Best graphically looking NASCAR game ever on consoles
•60FPS is huge! The game looks so smooth
•Every gameplay video everyone seem like they were running between 97-98 AI difficulty. Some tracks they looked easy and some they looked difficult. Gotta factor in that everyone skill level is different.
•I love the roof cam
•You can see what lap times the leader is running
•You can save up to 5 custom cars and select between them
•Still wanna see how the AI pit intelligence is
•Like how you can hear the difference in engine sound in each series
•The menus look very clean
•Wall contact is much better than the heat games

NASCAR 25 Pre Order information.
I don't pre order games anymore even if they do look promising. If I was to though I don't want a head start in career mode. I wanna actually grind. Giving players extra money and etc just makes it less of a grind. Maybe some people don't mind that but not me. It's tempting to pre order because you get early access but im gonna be watching a lot of videos and reading reviews to see if the game is worth buying. Fingers crossed that this game delivers!
