NASCAR 09 PS2 Games

"NASCAR 09"

• EA Sports released "NASCAR 09" for the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 and Microsoft's Xbox 360 in June 2010. Developed by EA Games, "NASCAR 09" is rated suitable for video game players of all ages. NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon, who is sponsored by Dupont, is featured on the game's cover. Other NASCAR drivers who raced in the 2008 NASCAR Sprint Chase for the Cup are also available for players to use in races. Players can race alone against computer players or against friends in head-to-head races. To play a whole season, players can try the Chase for the Cup Mode, and Career Mode allows gamers the chance to play multiple seasons as the same driver.

Sponsor

• NASCAR drivers compete with the assistance of sponsors, which are companies that pay a driver's expenses in exchange for the driver advertising for the company. Sponsor company names typically appear on the car of a NASCAR driver during races. In "NASCAR 09" for the PlayStation 2, players can get Walmart to become their sponsor. To gain Walmart's sponsorship, players must play in Chase for the Sprint Cup Mode, which is a series of races. When creating a driver to compete in these events, players must enter the driver's name as "WalMart Everyday". The new driver's car will then be sponsored by the company.

Cars and Drivers

• The stock cars used in "NASCAR 09" can be chosen out of preloaded options in the game or created by users. Gamers have control over what type of car they drive, the car's specifications, and the logos and appearance of the car. Drivers are also up to the player, as each driver's appearance and driving style can be manipulated to a gamer's specifications.
