THE BUZZ: Activision has given us the first look at its new racer, NASCAR Unleashed.

Perfect for those who don’t like driving in circles for hours, NASCAR Unleashed lets players escape the racetrack onto the pavements, beaches and off-road areas surrounding some of the most beloved NASCAR locales. If you enjoy this trailer, look for the game to hit on November 1.

EGM’s TAKE: We like the premise of taking these cars where they aren’t meant to go, and we’re looking forward to seeing if the game plays as good as it looks.
