Description:
NASCAR Racing 2003 Season by Papyrus/Sierra games.
It is doing something very few other videogames have done. It is actually INCREASING in value. At last check, it was at $90 at Amazon, and you can't score a copy on eBay for less than $70.
Why? EA's buying of an exclusive NASCAR licence in 2004, and continuing to put out crap games. Fuck you, EA. |

a year and a half ago, it was going for $15.99 on clearance shelves. Coulda made a lot of money by buying up a bunch of copies and waiting... damn.
Also, this is one of the most fan supported racing games in history. People keep paintschemes/teams/drivers updated VERY well for download. There are also numerous "mods"... TransAm mod, IRL mod, GT Prototype mod, Touring car mod, Sprint racing mod, Craftsman truck mod, ARCA/Busch series mod, Late-model mod, 1988 mod... and custom/updated tracks are everywhere, and it is THE NASCAR game to play online with.
...and no, I don't have a copy of it :(

If it's that valuable, I'll see if I can get some copies in the bargain bins at Staples or other PC stores. Around here Nascar games just collect dust. |

I'm running the GTP mod in two different leagues. It's the best sim racing ever, IMHO, and that's high praise since it finally won out over another Papyrus game, Grand Prix Legends.
It's a shame that the same people who produced these games became a group called First, which is now threatening to sue anybody who does any more mods on the NR2003 executable. They've gone from being the most loved people by the sim racing community to the most despised. |

#7, yeah, but wouldn't the mods extend the life of the game, sell more copies, and get more people aware of the company? |

EA used to be a cutting edge software company in the 80s - great games, great ideas...
now they are the Microsoft of the gaming world |

EA has also developed a pretty bad reputation as a coding sweatshop. They're one company I'd never want to work for.

#16, Prices of Pro controllers stabilized since that last post... picked up another one used for ~$18 at a local game store.
...and holy shit, Hakchi on my SNES Mini has opened up a whole new retro gaming world for me. I know Retro Pis do essentially the same thing, but this way, I don't have to worry about fiddling with the hardware myself...
I even side-loaded a USB stick so I can run some CD-based console games, as well...
...I'm now getting to enjoy Sega Master System and TurboGrafx games I *never* would have played in the past... those two were good damn systems! Shockingly high-quality game libraries, as well. ...I'm also getting to try out the libraries of the Sega 32X and Sega CD... I played those in the past, but only when I *rented* those add-ons from Blockbuster on a rare occasion... the 32X had some extremely polished, high-quality games, the Sega CD... uh... its games library feels a lot like a giant experiment.
Unfortunately, Atari Jaguar and Sega Saturn are apparently extremely difficult to emulate, not just on Hakchi, but in general. ...so no diving into those game libraries, and the Dreamcast requires just a bit too much processing power than the SNES Mini can provide. It appears the N64 is difficult to emulate, as well, but a handful of games run decently enough... and emulated PlayStation games run damn near flawlessly. ...I'm also rediscovering how amazing the library for the Game Boy Advance was. |

#18, Where do you get the ROMs? I messed around with NESticle and SCUMMvm back in the day, and trying to find ROM sites that aren't loaded with malware was always the most frustrating part. |
