Are there any good rally/racing games? - General

[QUOTE=The mouse;33348210]DiRT 1 is horribly optimised and borderline unplayable. DiRT 2 is very well opimised but can get really repetative Grid has a wide variation of tracks and events but lacks much else ToCA race driver 3 pretty much works on any modern computer, many many tracks and events, long campaign mode.[/QUOTE] I never checked out the TOCA series. I think I should. It is hardcore simulation or pure arcade? [QUOTE=Dlaor-guy;33355365]Need for Speed: Underground 2.[/QUOTE] Played and finished. The truly superior NFS imho. [QUOTE=Torjuz;33347947]Rage Racer for the PSX. It's damn awesome but very rare...[/QUOTE] I think there are... "other ways" to obtain it, if you get what I'm saying... Anyway, is it like Ridge Racer? If so, oh god I loved that game

There's the WRC FIA World Rally Championship game. I played it and liked it, but I haven't heard anyone talk about it. There's also the DiRT series, as mentioned. I've played the Richard Burns Rally game, and it's physics are pretty bad. There's also the Cross Racing Championship game. I've played it and it's fairly fun, but it didn't really hook me. There is MOTORM4X, but it's more of a hardcore offroad game with some rally mixed in. If you want an older game with a large amount of mods, check out 4x4 Evolution 2. It's a free game released in 2001. I do rally in real life, and so far I haven't found a game that accurately simulates it.

WRC FIA seems cool. Is it for PC? I once checked out Richard Burns on PS2, and I didn't like it at all Man, I got far more answers than I would've expected.

FlatOut 2, as already mentioned. Wide variety of cars, opponents with differing AI and barrelrolls from hitting a traffic cone.

Dirt 2 was great, it didn't really focus on rally much though

[QUOTE=FordLord;33356449]I've played the Richard Burns Rally game, and it's physics are pretty bad.[/QUOTE] hahahaha yeah sure whatever

[QUOTE=NitronikALT;33356288]Anyway, is it like Ridge Racer? If so, oh god I loved that game[/QUOTE] It's a part of Ridge Racer. [editline]23rd November 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=NitronikALT;33370001]Heard good stuff about it.[/QUOTE] Licensed cars with a Mario Kart twist. It's awesome.

[QUOTE=Kalkka;33370038]hahahaha yeah sure whatever[/QUOTE] I'm just basing it on my real-life rally experience. So far no one has really managed to make a realistic rally game.
