Next Car Game: Wreckfest

There’s been an update to Next Car Game, an actual Race Track and a slight variant that makes it into a very large Figure-8. There has also been the addition of multiplayer. It’s been awhile since I got behind the wheel of this one and I’m surprised I been away so long. This game is an utter riot to play! The chances of your getting T-Boned or slammed headlong into the barrier wall are so high that it’s more of a surprise when it doesn’t happen! This is not a precision racing experience. First of all the cars are far from the high performance machines or other games. They are big, rusty, rear wheel drive clunkers that just might give you tetanus just by looking at them. They drive like crap and have huge amounts of body roll. If you start to lose grip or the back end starts to fish tail, you’re hitting something or someone. But oh my […]

Time for a Lap in Next Car Game – Sandpit Showdown

Bugbear Entertainment has just released a new update for Next Car Game titled – Sandpit Showdown. There was a very nice sale over the Easter weekend so I hope you got a chance to buy a copy. For this latest update we have two new areas, the Sandpit Demolition Derby Arena and the Sandpit Race Course. I’m not very good at Demolition Derby yet so I clearly more time behind the wheel in that event. But the course is nice and open with dozens of cars slamming into each other with total disregard for safety. Next we have the Sandpit Track with is quite a bit longer and more technical than the other tracks we’ve raced so far. There are some severe turns that not only lead to flying off the track, but also slamming into the  many dirt mounds that line this new course. Not only do we have some heavy duty concrete barriers, but construction equipment lining the […]

Next Car Game on Sale for Easter at Steam

As you expect there are some nice Easter sales going on. One of those is Next Car Game from BugBear Entertainment. The price has dropped 33% to a mere $20.09. Not only has the price dropped, but there has been a new update which includes the Sandpit Shakedown – a brand new course to try out. There are plenty of other improvement such as game physics and vehicle suspension. This looks like a pretty impressive update and as soon as I get the chance I’m getting behind the wheel to try it out. Next Car Game is pretty awesome with that good old fashioned "rubbing is racing" mentality and to hell with the idea of multimillion dollar cars and massive teams for support or even sponsors. Get behind the wheel of a beat up car with nothing but a massie engine and hopefully the right set of tires and see how you make out on the track. The rules are […]

Let’s Check Out The New Update for Next Car Game – February Update

Hello and welcome to the latest update for Next Car Game. Things have been a little quiet, but the lads over at BigBear Entertainment have been busy. This is the February 15th release that includes a new track – the Figure 8, a new car – The American Sedan, some new paint schemes and a quite a few changes to the game itself including ABS, Anti Spin and much more traction control. The car has a much different feel and with the driving aids turned on it’s a lot hard to lose control. They might be dampened a bit too much, but that can always be changed. The game is coming along really nicely and I take a spin across all four tracks including the new Figure 8 to see what sort of damage I can cause as well as avoid. Things are looking and playing well. Log into Steam to get your latest update and let me know what […]

Let’s Take Another Spin Around the Track in Next Car Game

I’ve done some practice, but I’ll be the first to admit it might not be making me any better. Let’s take another spin around the track in the Early Access Preview of Next Car Game. I do my best to come out victorious in the demolition derby arena, I change my tires and go for broke on the gravel track and then set up the car for a full on race around the tarmac course. The opponents are brutal and come after me like I owe them a gambling debt. Take a ride with me as we once again go for a white knuckle drive around the Next Car Game test course. Even though it’s still early days, Next Car Game is already highly entertaining and the 3 available tracks are a challenge in their own right. The demolition derby satisfies the need to use and abuse a high powered muscle car and watch as every corner and panel crushes […]
