Alright so im seeing a large number of new racing games comin out lately. And the common trend ive seen so far is totall customization of your car & online play. So which do you recomend and which dont you. Im lookin at renting forza motorsport. I also saw one recently where you can race for slips.

I like GT3 more then GT4. I like midnight club 2 more then midnight club 3. Midnight club 3 is a better by then need for speed underground 2. I like the comic way Nfsu tells the story. So if you want story play nfsu2. Ridge racer was a temporary rush I like wipeout games so I'm going to pick up pure. Forza is good I hear, I might try it. Bad sentence structure but I don't mind.

now for racing.. do you want simulation, or arcade??

Forza and GT is simulation meaning.. you wont be able to pull off your 120mph turn is cake anymore (come on real racing...)

Try Burnout 3 and Forza and then go from there.

anyone use to play Roll Cage on the PSone?? that shti was hot, mix of wipeout, but with better weapons and the racing was soo fast that driving on the ground is sooo 90s... (that was their ad, the cars can race upside down.)

wow... there is actually somebody who plays the game other then me lol. Best feature is that there is no reverse in the game, just press O and the car spins to the direction of 'forward" on the track.

I could never get into simulation racing, I much prefered the arcade style game play of racers like Ridge Racer. I think a majority of racers coming soon or are out now have shifted too much into car customization that the gameplay has taken a huge hit. Just my humble opinion though...

NFSU2 is alright... even tho its just a rip off of Midnight Club.

I'll stick to my INitial D version 3...

so you can go race in your toyota eight-six tureno?? jk jk

manga is cool and such, but the racing gaming just plain sucks IMO. Everyone remeber those good old Racing USA?? that was the coolest racing game of all time in the arcade, i mean i can play that game for hours off of one dollar. Man i need to go find an arcade that as Racing USA.

mario kart 64... i dono but it still takes the cake for racing on consoles for me.

Never really was a fan of racing games all that much, I was just never good enough.

I gave GT3 a chance and bought it but i sold it soon after cause i realized that arcade racers are my style not simulation racers.

That happens with a lot of people. You only get the hardcore fans for simulation racers.

The only racing game I've really enjoyed playing is Daytona. I generally don't like racing games, heh.

Daytona is sweet, played it quite a bit on Saturn. Too bad I suck at it though.

Need for Speed underground 1 & 2 were good. I played some online, but there were too many cheaters.
GT is fun too, although I suck at getting my driver's license.

GT4 really appeals to the people who's really into cars and such (myself included). Nothing even comes close GT4 imo. But I can understand why people find it boring. So it's just my opinion and nothing else.

I like that response, I REALLY tried to get into GT3, but I just love arcade racing style so much more. So once again, it is just my humble opinion when I say I prefer Ridge Racer and Daytona more than GT and other stuff. I can't give a real good response to which simulation racer is better.
