I am a big big big big fan a driving games, I love 'em. But the recent splash of games haven't turn my ignition like they use to. I can't decide if I like arcade or simulation. I didn't like GT3, cos it's driving model is just tedious, I didn't like BurnOut2 because it was easier than Jordan.
But I did like BurnOut because it was challenging, but I don't like F1 games because when you do make it simulation you have to "know" the tracks, and I can only remember about 3 tracks before the first one I memorised gets knocked out, Melbourne, Hockenheim and possibly Suzuka, and when its easy it's easy.
MSR, Project gotham were alright upto a point, but that too got boring, once I "know" the game that seems to be it, and the track design was a little loose. I think the best driving game I have played recently has to be Le-Mans 24 on the Dreamcast, that had everything, 22 cars, lush physics, demanding gameplay, dynamic weather.
SO what are your favourite driving games, or otherwise, I need to get an angle on this. Wheel or no wheel?
