"Racing Games , Which ones are the best ?"

Where have all the good racing games gone . I cn not get Grand Theft Auto 3 because I am only ten and I can not wait so long for the new Need For Speed game to come out .

I think the game will be released around 1st of July, but that's for the PS2 version, I don't know about the PC game. I haven't heard anything about hot persuit 2 for the PC much, but if it's going to be released I would say it would be around the same time as the console version.

Yes but when does Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 come out .

I've got them both too, infact they're the only racing games I have for my PC. There's always F12002 or GP4, if you look around you could probably find a demo of those games, so you can see if you like them or not.

If you are willing to wait, then there is Toca: Race Drive out in a few months, or Need for Speed: Motor city online out somtime later in the year. Both look promising.

I am such i hard core racer on the pc and here is what i think.....Best racing games i have ever played is F12002,NFS 5,F12001 GT cars patch damn what a patch it is. The game to look out for is toca race driver AKA Pro race driver. And the best way to enjoy racing games is to get a good wheel and pedals and i would recomend Force RS www.act-labs.com. If there is a good racing game out there i have prob played it.

Cipro you are right Midtown Madness and Need For Speed are good fun but I have both games .

The good thing about F1 games is that you have to think about it.

You don't just grab the fastest car and bane it around track recklessly bouncing off other cars and mountain sides to the finish line. You have to adjust your car to be ready for the individual circuits, changing tyres, gears, suspension, wing angles, fuel loads etc. You have to plan a refueling strategy and pretty much everything from the real thing.

Plus when you're actually racing, you have to try to avoid hitting your opponents, and anything else, and use SKILL to perfect braking times for each corner of the track before you can seriously hope to win.

F1 games are among the few racing games I enjoy. Other than Super Mario Kart...

I do have Need For Speed Road Challenge, that's a good game. Plenty of cars to race and an equal amount of tracks to race them on, should be on budget now if you want to check it out. There's also midtown madness, which isn't really a proper racing game, but it is bloody fun.

Thanks , but like you F1 isn't excactally my favourite thing to play . I suppose I could give it a shot .

Try Grand Prix 4. I'm not a fan of F1 myself, but the game has been getting alot of good reveiws.
