Joshua Farrell Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Are you good at racing games? Has this generation or prior converted you to check them out? Is Sony generally considered to go to console for racers? I have played racing games before, but never competitively against others online. Played them with friends and family, whenever we didn't want to play shooters or sports related games. If I had anything to say about my play level, I probably wouldn't manage to get in first most of the time if I play online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeowsePad Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 The only racing game I've ever played is Gallop Racer 2003: A New Breed, a horse racing game. I guess I'm decent at it. It's a very obscure title that seems to have been more popular in Japan than in the U.S. I only managed to find it because a video rental store near me had it back in the day. I still play it from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I never really played any race games that were lifelike. Unless Excitebike counts as lifelike. But I was always good at Mario Kart and F-Zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeowsePad Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I forgot about Mario Kart. I dabbled in that a bit back in the day. I didn't have it, but my cousin did; we played it when I was at his house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I'm not really good, the only racing game that I keep playing occasionally is Mario Kart, I do own Burnout paradise but the open world always felt barebones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 NFS and few bike specific games were good. But after some time you get pretty much bored with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSteelyardDweller Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 no I am pretty much terrible at them but they are fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron Taylor Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 When I was little, I played games like Mario Kart on the Nintendo 64. I thought I was pretty good at it, but I was always 5-6 years old. A little bit more recently, I played games like Need For Speed: Most Wanted on the PlayStation 2. I have no doubt that I was awesome at that game. As far as any current racing video games, I don't know if I'm good or bad at them. I don't really mess with that niche anymore. In my opinion, every Need For Speed game on the PlayStation 4 has been garbage, so I've stayed away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 I think some racing games can be pretty good in terms of graphics and also fun to play with as well. But at the end you get kind of bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Based on my experience from NFS Hot Pursuit and Most Wanted (2006 version), i can say i'm pretty good at them, but they aren't on the top of the list of my favorite games category Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I wouldn't say I'm great at them, but I can be good at some of them. Just depends on the racing game I suppose. I sadly don't play a lot of racing games, as I king of got tired of them during the PS1/PS2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 From what i remember when playing Hot pursuit 2 and Most wanted (2005), i was pretty good, but i really lost interest as they stopped being fun for me .. 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
