Justin11 Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 (edited) I am a big fan of racing games, their is no secret to that. I opened up this thread to keep it engaged with fellow racing game lovers. When it comes to my choice of racing games, I love 'Moto GP series a lot, I consider it my best racing game series of all-time. I take pride also around, 'GT series, NFS series, F1 series and Monster Energy Super-cross racing series. What's your own favourite racing game series?

Shagger Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 (edited) For me, it's Burnout. The games were intense, felt fantastic to control, unique, great soundtracks and massive fun. Apart from Burnout Paradise, that game can suck a smelly toe, but the rest of them are great. Burnout 3 in particular is, in my humble opinion, the best arcade racing game ever made, and given the decline in the genre, will probably be best we will ever see.

I know you mean burnout paradise, which came first time in 2008, I played it. To my bad, I didn't include it in the list of racing game series i cherish. I played it on my PS3, one if the best car racing game ever, resembles Gran Turismo series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 I'm just short of words to describe my own favourite racing games, because I don't play much of them, but I'm going to say, 'GT is my favourite at this moment. Because I got the edition 7 on my PS4, which is the first ever edition launching on PS4. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Family sedan Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 I love Gran Turismo because it's realistic enough for my liking and if you put in enough effort you will win if you have enough skill. Justin11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yaramaki Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 If i speak from nostalgia i have to say super monaco gp one and two on the sega megadrive/genesis. I still try to play trough the second game atleast once a year. Can't really say i have one favourite series but if i have to choose probably going to pick forza motorsport, the 4th being the highlight of the series. Maybe that changes if they release forza 8 this year or the next let's hope it does. I always had a lot of fun with the test drive unlimited series, they were cringy at best and the handling of the care were quite awfull but it did so much things that were new at the time nobody really cared about that. Sure i have nothing agains gran turismo and i had put many hours into the series but i feel like the series has been in a downward spiral after the 4th entry. GT 6 was quite good but nobody played that since by the time it got released, the ps4 was already out and people already moved on. GT7 With the recent micro transaction bullshit i don't know man, going to keep my hands away from that game for quit a while. Justin11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will soon hear from Justin about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I stick with ETS trucking and race for fun. Other then that F1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Tough one because there are some great racing games out there. But it would probably have to be Forza Horizon or F1 for me. It's hard for me to pick one out of the two I have mentioned since they are quite different. But Forza Horizon is amazing for a more arcade-like experience and then if you're in the mood for F1, that has a more realistic approach to racing which is quite fun Justin11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m76 Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I'm not a series loyalist. I don't care what series or brand a racing game belongs in as long as it's great. My favorite racing game is Test Drive Unlimited, but I didn't like the sequel as much, its physics was a bit dumbed down, and hasn't improved on the original in any way. Need For Speed used to be my favorite series, but that ended after the fifth game, Porsche Unleashed. I also enjoyed Gran Turismo up to the 6th game, but I think Sport was an insult to traditional GT fans, and GT7 is a terrible game with an identity crisis. A wannabe sim that fails at being both a sim and an arcade game. So I can't say I unconditionally like any series. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 It would be Gran Turismo for me especially the 6th edition of the game. After that, I'm going to pick Forza Horizon as my next favorite. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The picture is a generic one indeed, but I think it's a GT 2 photo. You can scan it, if you can 😛. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
