    Outside of career, there’s a quick race mode allowing you to jump into specific races with ease, and an online mode, where numerous playlists allow you to match up with others for some real competition. Aside from that though, there’s very little else to do unless you like creating your own liveries. The new Paint Booth gives you more control than ever over what your car looks like.

    It's hard to recommend NASCAR 21: Ignition in its current state, and it will probably play best a little bit down the road after Motorsports Games gets all of the technical issues worked out. There definitely are some good elements to make for a fun experience, and when the game cooperates enough to allow players to experience them, the driving and overall presentation of a NASCAR race are enjoyable.

    If you're looking for a fun and simple racing that doesn't require a deeper knowledge of the sport or its cars' inner workings then Ignition is perfect. If you're looking for a sports game that is going to occupy the bulk of your gaming time for the next 12 months, then probably not so much.

    The only big common denominator that ever really bothered me is the bare-bones nature of it all. There’s not much customization options, race modifiers, or racing modes. Even for NASCAR, it just feels a bit too simple too often. Couple that with no current gen features or enhancements, and it ends up being a fairly hard sell for its full price of 60 bucks.
