Just for a bit of a laugh, I thought I would list ten of my favourite racing circuits in gaming. Some are real, most are not. Be interested to see what tracks others enjoy the most.
I thought about it when playing Ridge Racer DS and lapping the classic Ridge City track for what must of been well over 1000 laps worth.
Greenfield/Bayside Line.
Classic track from Ridge Racer and the alternate version in Ridge V. Easily my favourite racing circuit of all time having raced it over and over since 1993 and still not bored of it.
Ghost House 1.
Super fast, super shiny and a magnificent circuit from Super Mario Kart.
Suzuka Circuit.
The legendard racing circuit is a track I always loved but on Ferrari F355 Challenge it just feels perfect.
Brands Hatch.
Another classic real life track that is sublime to race in Need for Speed Shift and Toca 3.
C1 Ring.
Another circuit I have raced over and over. So many curves and plenty of places to open out. Inner and Outer both present very different challenges too. Best version is Shutokou Battle 0.
Forest Stage.
Second stage of Sega Rally presents a great challenge and some magnificent turns to encourage you to slide the car to the max.
Port Town 2.
The music helps but the twists and turns make this course hard to master. On master level, this F-Zero classic is still gruelling 22 years after it came out.
Deep Forest.
Brilliant Gran Turismo original track but the GT3 version gets my specific vote. It just has the nicest scenery and the best use of colour.
Motorplex.
My favourite track from Destruction Derby 2. Fast, dangerous and varied to keep it interesting.
Korodera.
Wonderfu, long and difficult. Pity this Wipeout track has never been used in another version of the game.
Anyone else care to list?
