Project Cars (game) out tomorrow!!!
-
Wasn't planning on buying another console ever, but it's tempting. I'd love to get into some organized, semi-competitive sim racing. Scheduled races, points standings and all that. I got into GT5 kind of late, and it was always hard to find a decent race online
Don't feel like wasting my time playing with a bunch of whiners/kids/trolls/asshats/etc -
Back to back races with a good group of online competitors are amazing. I had a session in gt5 once where myself and another guy were at each others throats for 1st each race. It was some good clean racing and a good adrenaline rush.
Then there were other online sessions where i just rammed people while laying on the horn with the Jay Leno Tank Car. That wasnt nearly as entertaining

I have been a huge fan of the GT series since GT2 and I have owned everyone since then. Forza's game play never grabbed me and I have never cared enough to own multiple systems (unless you count the N64 I still have). I have been following Project Cars and it looks awesome but at this point I don't even know if I want to buy a PS4, until GT7 comes out at least.

Oh Earl, what would I do without you in my life!

I am down for some PC racing, cross platform for racing games would be nice. No one has an advantage vs. FPS cross platform.

Looks tight, but will probably not be buying one of these consoles. However, I would love having a set-up like this to play these newer racing games on

The sad reality is driving physics will never be made realistic in a video game. The amount of skill needed to drive them on the console would turn away too many players=/ I mean they could have a setting that gives you very realistic physics and then have a setting for the novice players.

iRacing? rFactor? RaceRoom Racing Experience? I haven't tried any of them yet, but there are definitely some hardcore racing games out there. I think they're all PC-only though.

I shall download Assetto Corsa and see what she looks like, my keyboard skills are serious

This game isnt fun for tooling around and drifting like forza/GT but for those times when you want to have some make-believe track time or improve your driving technique in the quest to shave another tenth off your lap time, then this is the real deal!
The suspension model is impressive in that a semi-trailing arm equipped car squats and moves very true to life.
A steering wheel is a must. In the virtual world, the communication from the forces and physical sensations of grip do not exist and a compliant/forgiving car can be handled with a controller just fine. Turn up the power, remove compliance, and add the lower predictability of racing tires and the limited control with the controller is just not enough
