Racing Titles

Hatorade · 10-09-2005, 09:12 PM

I don't like making a new thread about one game. But racing games for me are rarely fun for me. One I can't put down however is "Trackmania Sunrise". Loved trackmania so picked this one up. The racing is very arcade if you looking for realistic racing go else where. If you looking for crazy ass tracks with insane stunts and three very different types of cars to race with. One sports car fast and agil. Second SUV type not fast but climbs hills like a champ and can turn on a dime. Third slower type of race car that always fells like driving on ice.

The track editor is the shit you can make and share tracks and race them online. you can even setup different types of cameras for people. Like if they doing a big ass jump or a loop you can make the camera zoom out and make it look like a movie. Track editor is freaking limitless so many different ways to use the same block. each type of car has its own unique blocks. Been playing it for like 4 months straight about once a day. Mainly I log on to make a track or perfect one I already started.

Got any suggedtions of good racing titles?

Super Mario Kart on SNES. All other Karts are inferior.

WipEout 2097.

For some reason, the following episodes never managed to give as good driving sensations as this second opus on PlayStation.

Burnout 3 or Burnout Revenge, hilarious fun with massive crashes and super fast racing.

Gran Turismo 1 or 4.

Second for Wipeout 2097.

I have to agree with this. I'm not into racing games but this one series has kept my attention.

Hatorade · 10-10-2005, 07:47 AM

oo yeah forgot about burnout revenge. That game is also damm fun. Anyone else like or play trackmania?

Forza kicks pretty good ass for a semi-realistic racing game. Wish I had a decent wheel for it, it's only so-so with a control pad. I could shave easily a few seconds off every lap with a decent wheel.

Burnout 3 : Takedown or Burnout Revenge are both excellent. If you enjoy racing, I'd recommend Takedown over Revenge, Revenge is more mindless car-slaughter although it still has some very good racing moments.

Blaezenfury · 10-10-2005, 03:05 PM

any need for speed~
burnouts
grand turismo

and the best racing game ever, obv. Mario kart~

Luthair · 10-10-2005, 06:36 PM

Media Kart is definately the most entertaining, but I'd also recommend the older Need For Speeds (when you don't drive ricers), Porsche on the PC is probably my favourite.

I think the only game I've spent more time playing in all my life was Adventure for the Atari. I'd even wager that Super Mario Kart for the SNES is the greatest video game of all time.

Only other racing game I played nearly as much were offroad and RC Pro AM for the NES.

If you can get ahold of Double Axle and Mame to emulate it the game is pretty fun, monster truck racing, used to play the hell out of the game at the bowling alley when they had the arcade machine there.
