NASCAR 08 on PS2 is kinda the Chaotic Neutral of NASCAR games, its hilariously bad but at the same time it has some really good moments in it
Honestly as bad as this game is I have a lot of fond memories with it playing it as a teenager.
All they had to do with this game was literally just reskin NASCAR 07, instead they somehow completely broke the physics and stripped the game to bare bones.
@@coatedtrout4833 i mean if you’re definitely looking for the chaotic element this is the perfect game to unleash chaos
So essentially NFS Undercover PS2?
I can’t believe other people actually played this. I put so many hours into this game when I was in middle school.
If you hail melon for several laps in a row all of the computer cars will start doing it too
The stupidity of there being two 21 cars as filler gains another layer when you remember that 2007 had almost 50 full-time teams. They left full-time cars from irl out while there's 2 of the same car out there. Idk if there were rights issues with some of the backmarker teams or what
It amused me doing a season on this game, because Greg Biffle wasn't allowed to race. Yet Jon Wood and Ken Schrader both ran.
It's weird that they did this when you consider that past games managed to handle drivers sharing cars by only running one of the two cars (most notably the KHI 33 two games prior).
IIRC this wasn't an issue in the 7th Gen versions, which makes this even more puzzling.
@@K9RacingAndStuff A better way to have Ken Schrader and Jon Wood in the field together would've been to put one of them in the 47 car, which was in an alliance with the Wood Brothers at the time. I think Schrader ran the 47 at Las Vegas and Wood DNQ'd it at Kansas
@@seekerblackout You're talking about the game that forgot the Haas 70 existed; that'd make too much sense.
The one thing I absolutely LOVE about this game is the post race graph you can view on the race results page. That's what got me into my obsession with graphs as a child and it's an obsession I still carry with me to this day.
The rubberbanding is disgusting on 08 & 09 and the arcadey driving/tire wear can be a migraine at times. It's just so dang mediocre really. Burger King car is gorgeous, though.
Playing this game right now, one time at Talladega, there was a AI bot that refused to repair his damage and so we got a caution every lap because of the car's debris, 20 seconds after the green flag, from after the one pit stop to the end of the race. Gotta love NASCAR 08
19:20 missed opportunity for a "Rocketman Ryan Newman" joke
I unironically love this game lol, it may not be perfect, but the new additions such as the ticker, 360 cam, HD graphics, something about it made me love it more. Still doesn't beat the classics now don't get me wrong, but this is such a goofy game I love it 😭
I love this game and you know that one time I had the whole field with dnf at Bristol except my car which I ended up winning the race as the lone car survivor
When I was growing up NASCAR 08 was the only racing game I had for the ps3, since I had nothing to compare it to I never knew it was bad (I was also just 8 years old) I had a blast!
I once was playing nascar 09 at Bristol with flags off and there was a pileup so bad that there was a wall of cars blocking the track for about 10 laps 😂😂😂😂
The last half of this video is just childhood me, causing blowovers and parking sideways on the track , I actually managed to blow a motor once at Talladega while messing around with my brother because we were so far back the rubber band let me get up to like 211MPH and probably faster if I had more gear and wasn't blowing intake welds at 9,500RPM
When do people cry when Chastain wrecks someone? Pretty sure the fanbase loves it because he was wrecking Denny.
NASCAR 08 I got with my PS2 for Christmas and was the first video game I played. Put hundreds of hours into 08. The career mode is meme worthy but actually decent u should give it a try.
This game had a weird thing for back markers running up front
NASCAR 08 on PS2 is the only NASCAR game I'd played until Heat 4 so I have nothing to compare it to but I played it for hours and loved it when I was a kid, and the soundtrack is still an absolute banger
I found your channel yesterday and I've been binging your videos, thank you so much for the content and amazing commentary. This goes to show that great content doesn't need an amazing mic on a 4K camera in a studio. This is what youtube was always about! Thanks SpeedStation, can't wait to see what's coming from you in the future!
8:48 Holy crap the cars in this version of 08 and as well as 09 are so freaking light it's like they are toy cars.
Wait, no, even toy diecast cars have weight to them.
Martinsville on the ps3 version, I couldn't come off turn 2 or 4 without the car going on 2 wheels and flipping over lol
david stremme always starts last in these lol
Nascar 08 on PS2 is a great game... I used to love that game!
I used to run into the back of the ais at martinsville in the corners so the ai flips
21:40
2002 Busch series race at talladega lmao
The cars in earn your stripes are ridiculous when fully upgraded..
5:10 Hey tbf Mikey did get a top 10 at Charlotte in 2007 irl, so fair enough for that. Doesn’t excuse how in my last playthrough of my career Jon Wood won the fecking Cup championship.
Please make more of these videos I beg you
I just found your channel the other day, I don't even like NASCAR but your content and presentation are great. Subbed my dude!
Just found your channel yesterday. Really enjoyable content, keep it up!

What happened there Sterling?
Uh, I got runover by a bug eyed dummy I guess
I feel like we need a sequel to this video. Perhaps even with NASCAR 09
A few weeks back I finally got all the chase plates for this game on PCSX2 and uh
its not really worth it lol since u gotta have the framelimiter disabled and choose the best vehicle out of all series (basically the walmart sponsored cars)
and have 100% racelength with limited damage and no yellow flags and make sure u qualify top 10 or better and then just cheese the hell out of each lap to get away from the pack
but there are a few tracks like Dockside for instance where u need to change the default setup in order to get a good starting position.
The really crappy part is the medallions, which are 1st place, pass 20 cars, lap 5 cars, and 1st place with no instant rewind. lapping 5 cars and passing 20 cars must be done cleanly and doesn't count when there are cars on pit road. Minimum of 4 races for each of the games tracks to complete that track's medallion tasks and some tracks must be completed to unlock a few others like speedway boulevard, phoenix infield, and daytona infield. The best way for some if not most tracks to get the lap 5 cars medallion is to just cause attrition and wrecks out there but for some you can just cut through the infield portions of the track to get away from the pack behind you and get to the rear of the pack. Some tracks are quick but Indy is really long, easily over 60 laps to do the lap 5 cars medallion at best due to it having next to no infield.
I just discovered your channel and I gotta say you really make funny and entertaining videos, keep it up!
Stewart is on the cover alongside Thunder 2004.
My brothers and I grew up with Thunder 2003 and NASCAR 08 and even then we could tell how much worse 08 was. I only ever played it because it has the more modern drivers at the time.
Love the video. I would love to see you play NASCAR 07
Really enjoying your channel man. Keep it up
John wood and ken schrader same number 21 remind me of the 2020 talladega iracing pro invitational series when william byron and jeff gordon have the same number 24 with a different color number.
8:49 lmfao @ Jr casually getting spun out.
This was my first Nascar game, Lol I played it for hours
Jon Wood kissing the bricks is something I wish happen fr 🙁
I love nascar 08 on PS2 I had close finishes on it and I never had problems with it
My cat loves your videos btw
How dare you wreck Jr. lol
before the hail melon , i did itcouple times when i just qualify in bristol, and loudon in nascar the game 13 LOL
I absolutely love this game 🤣
Ps2 nascar 08 was my only nascar game I only played career mode I think in my best run I was a 4 time modified champ 2 time truck champion and 20 time nationwide champion bc I could never pass the time challenge to get into the cup series
No Fantasy Drivers allowed in NEXTEL Cup Series section of NASCAR 08
This NASCAR franchise is absolute best EA SPORTS franchise along with Arena Football, MVP Baseball, NCAA March Madness & NCAA Football rather best than other EA SPORTS games like Madden NFL, FIFA, NHL, NBA LIVE, UFC
Seen these franchises (NASCAR, Arena Football, MVP Baseball, NCAA March Madness & NCAA Football) have dropped from EA base games website because of Skate, BoulderDash Rocks!, Cricket 2007, Cricket 2005, Cricket 2004 and Harry Potter Quidditch World Cup (were non-EA SPORTS games in the U.S.) have replaced several EA SPORTS games from U.S. region likes of NCAA Football 07, NASCAR 07, MVP 07: NCAA Baseball, Arena Football: Road to Glory, NASCAR 08, NCAA Football 08, NCAA March Madness 08, NASCAR Thunder 2004, NASCAR 2005: Chase for the Cup, NCAA Football 2004, NCAA Football 2005, MVP 06: NCAA Baseball, EA SPORTS Rugby 06, EA SPORTS Rugby 2005, MVP Baseball 2005, MVP Baseball 2004, NCAA March Madness 2004 NCAA March Madness 2005, NCAA March Madness 06 and NCAA March Madness 07 due to have "404: Sorry, the page you were looking for can't be found" on the Official EA Site and 800+ EA Tiburon's employees have dismissed for lay offs (PHK Massal) in Orlando back in 2017

???...
bruh i have the xbox 360 version, i love it
God I remember the disappointment after buying this on PS2. At one point, I got so excited for the release. After 06 it's just been years of disappointment.
Nascar 2005 career mode plz. Love the vids
I much prefer NASCAR 08 & 09 on the PS2 vs the PS3.
have you ever been to a live race?
Unfortunately, no. I live in southeastern Ohio and really haven't been able to justify the travel expenses. Now that broadcasts are becoming worse there is a much bigger appeal to going though. Best I've ever been to is local fair events, but I intend on changing that.
The thing I like about Nascar 08 is Toyota
NASCAR 2008 on My PS2 is Good! 5:23
I wish the crashes in the newer games where like they are in these older games.
NASCAR 09 was way worse than 08
i liked nascar 08, personal attack?
Actually it is pretty fun. This was basically just me screwing around with the PS2 version since most videos that I've seen out there of it are the PS3/360 version.
@@MarkLeiffer i figured out u can do whatever i skipped alot of the track just by cutting the track
i should corrupt this fr
I played it on Xbox360 and I loved it
Why do the gen 4 cars in this game look so flat?
That's how they were at the time. Basically just wedges with wheels.
You should now try the PS3/360 version!
I prefer PS2 versions for 08 and 09 instead of PS3
I'm glad you didn't put up a web cam ugh
Whoa whoa oh no oh no oh my God
Do nascar 09 please
yay im 500th like :D
