Product Description
NASCAR Thunder 2004 takes you into the screaming speed and backroom grudges that make up a professional racing season -- understand what the pros do: that racing is a contact sport! Advanced AI creates more intense rivalries -- if you're rough on your fellow competitors, they'll retaliate!

 Good game, bad company September 25, 2007
Thunder 2004 has a very good game engine, yet it has some serious flaws. Which is why EA won't support it, and is the reason why I will not support EA.
The premise is very good, although behind the times for the "year" it names. The tracks are unbelievably accurate, watch through the Nascar "in-car" on TV, they did such an outstanding job getting the track layout correct.
But... the flaws start with computer programmers deciding which car adjustment does what. Usually, they're opposite from reality. Cautions are so bad that there needs to be a reset button, and the worst is the cold shoulder from EA for any type of support.
Buy at your own risk.
 EA NASCAR Thunder 2004 April 18, 2007
This was my first game. Could not get around the track at the beginning. As I got better, I became addicted. When I got the wheel, the game became my past time. You must build a fast car to compete. That is the best part. A lot of stradegy is needed to build the car of your dream. If you mess up, you will go broke because it takes money, which the game starts you out at 4million, to build the car. Once you have built the dream car, set the AL at 100%. You can stay with them. After a year I brought the Sierra NASCAR 2003 and became spoiled. I sold my EA NASCAR 2004 and I miss it but when you have Sierra 2002 and 2003, you have the best. Donald Lindsey
you need patience with this game August 21, 2006
Ok, I'm not going to talk about computer specs or anything, but im sure everyone's computer is supreme compare to mine, however I can still play the game decently. I'm not a car junkie so I NEVER touched the car settings, I will in the future when I have the time to play with it. This game takes time to develop really. I enjoyed the furious battle for position and the AI is really competitive. The car handles just right for me. I dont know why the bad reviews from others. I'm not even a NASCAR fan but I love the competitive-ness. I recommend this game to whoever loves a good competition. Its also a great way to learn about cars as you fine tune your beast into a champion.
 I agree - NO REALLY, IT SUCKS August 19, 2006
Just want to help anyone out there considering this game - it really sucks. I played it 3 times then uninstalled it and threw the disc in the garbage (I don't throw anything out!!).
I am currently playing a 2001 version of Total Immersion Racing, which blows this game completely away.
DO NOT BUY (Unless you are buying the 2004 5-Pack).
The 2004 5 Pack includes:
NBA Live 2004 - which is a great game.
Madden 2004 - which is a very good game.
Nascar Thunder 2004 - which is unplayable.
NHL Live 2004 - which is unplayable.
Tiger Woods 2004 - which I haven't tried yet.
Good luck!!!
 No, really. It sucks. November 18, 2005
I'm not running a slow computer and it still doesn't compare to NASCAR Racing 2003 Season from Vivendi/Sierra/Papyrus. The graphics are comparable to the Atari racing games I used to play, and not even up to the Indy Car Racing from some years back (also from Papyrus). In short, the graphics are horrid, the vehicle response is terrible. I ran the demo and found the car extremely hard to control. And the demo is Talladega - my track!
One plus is that the rear view mirror is much clearer than in the Papyrus game.
I'm going back to NASCAR Racing 2003 Season.
