No, I'm talking about Sonic Riders
Free Riders was a shitfest
GTAO
>>332469717
That stuff is lame as hell.
The races are always "just end it already" instead of having fun.
Sonic R
>>332470470
My man, even though I'm sure you're joking.
Sonic Riders as well
>>332470873
I need to get into Sonic R.
Is Sonic Rivals any good, on the subject of Sonic Racing games ?
>>332469810
Clearly you haven't played a race with weapons on.
>>332471458
Sonic R is a mess. They tried to fuse collect a thon platforming with racing, and the result is atrocious
>>332470873
well I was half joking

>>332466783
Try the Initial D series. There's one on PSP for you to emulate if you don't have a PS3.
>>332471458
I've never played Sonic Rival's so I can't really comment.
and despite >>332471705, I still find the game incredibly fun, albeit I'm a bit biased since I played that a ton as a kid.
Although I still wouldn't say it's as bad as he described.
It's a bit wonky, but still fun to play through. It's pretty short and easy, so it's not like you'll spend forever trying to get through it if you don't like it.
There will never be a redline racing game
:(
>>332466783
Initial D feels fast as fuck despite being on a smaller "scale" than F-Zero and the like.
Also, how did Fast Racing Neo turn out? Did it ever get any post-release patches?
SPLIT/SECOND was fun if i remember correctly.
The "blow the scenery up" gimmick is pretty cool too. Few tracks though.

Any fun, fast games that I could reasonably emulate or play on PC? All the best racing games seem to be stuck on the PS2.
>>332472995
Most NFS games.
>>332473152
I bought Hot Pursuit years ago, but it wasn't nearly as good as HPS2. Plus, I've apparently downloaded it too many times, so I'm locked out of ever saving the game again.
>>332472526
Holy shit
>>332472995
If you want cozy/good maps, try out need for speed the run. (The game isn't perfect though, so take keep that in mind)

It's not buggy. It's annoying, with lack of options in the menu, unskippable cutscenes and small shit like that.
But the tracks are just too enjoyable.

That's the difference between you and me.
Unskippable cutscenes are a game breaking deal breaker.

doesn't it require Steam or something?
>>332478624
like 90% of games on PC, it does
Steam is free so if you don't have one no problem
I think it's also on console so go there if you want I dunno

Sounds like a good game, otherwise
>>332479014

>>332479206
not really, I just don't like that social network nonsense. I'd prefer if my online game shop leaves me the hell alone after I bought a game
>>332479379
You could just like..buy a game you want and only use the library feature?
Out of curiosity do you pirate a lot? Just pirate the game if anything
>>332478304
I hope they can make something substantial out of Grip. So far the Rollcage formula is there, but the content is yet to come, as well as the multiplayer.
>>332479515
>You could just like..buy a game you want and only use the library feature?
Not that I'm aware of. Steam's running in the background, tracking what games are launched, played how long. It has privacy settings I'd have to turn down first and re-check periodically. It's as if I got a gamestop dude sitting next to me while I'm playing, taking notes. I'd rather just buy the game and then have nothing to do with them any longer.
In the case of sonic, I even remember looking at a physical copy, to hopefully bypass steam. Seems to be hardwired into it though, which sucks.
>do you pirate a lot?
tricky question. I rarely pirate new games, too much hassle. playing a lot of old stuff on emulators though

why am I not surprised about that angle? Just because I pick my poison I have to accept it all? Anyway, no Steam, no Sonic, no big deal. Plenty other games to play
>>332480386

Probably because it's a very reasonable thing to say unlike your entire post I was responding to originally.
>>332480267

>>332480514
>Probably because it's a very reasonable thing to say

>>332480026
The camera doesn't zoom in, it moves closer to the car, notice how the rest of the worldstays the same.
I usually look at the road/corner while driving, so I never notice this shit while playing.
>>332480267
what game, nigga?
>>332480386
You sound like an old man that doesn't understand computers is what's up, dude. It's not like Steam is actively trying to harvest your organs and sell you pre-orders unless you visit the store-page (protip, all store pages for anything ever do this). As for privacy settings, if you have nobody as a friend then what's to check? Nobody will give a shit about a random with no profile or picture amongst the ocean of them.
When you were younger did your parents think your computer games were giving the system a virus?

Steam runs in the background without the store having to be open. Usage information is collected and returned. This can not be opted out of.

>>332481257
Can't believe I'm getting pulled into this, but I think that anon means the difference between the in-game camera tracking an object at close range and simply zooming in on it.
I guess zoom vs close in works but most people will just default to zoom. so bla bla bla autism bla bla.

Technically they are different. You guys are talking about one and the same thing calling it different names, creating an argument out of thin air.

Fucking shill. So any reasonable person who doesn't want to use steam/windows for any reason is a paranoid idiot? And anyone who defends them is a manchild? Honestly what kind of person would believe this -- and say behave like you do? What do you care so much about what OS and digital distribution services he does or doesn't use? Why would you, unless you had some kind of vested interest in the matter? And who in the fuck would, except some asshole businessman of some sort? Fuck off.
>>332485340
Why don't you suck his dick while you're at it? He is using Windows, and I was suggesting installing Linux, because that's the only way to go is you care about privacy.

I couldn't make sense of it either. I would say that is an excellent theory.
Some bunch of NFS games. I'll make a list.
Mandatory:
Anything before Carbon
Pretty good, but with flaws:
Carbon
Pro Street
Undercover
Most Wanted (2012)
Hot Pursuit (2010)
Shit:
Anything else
I dunno, anyone tried it?:
Nitro
only problem with the mention of NFS all the time is that it's neither high speed nor high intensity. It's fairly standard racing.
>>332485894
>>332489279
yeah but only in the sense it sets the standard for all racing because that's how good it is. like standard oil.
I like Dirt Rally but I dont know if it fast enough
>>332472183
Which Initial D should I play? I've been considering getting into the series.
I'm a huge F-Zero fan, so the most crazy, arcadey, pulse pounding one.
>>332489279
did you played carbon?
>>332489684
Well anything after stage 3 are all mostly the same.
>>332480267
Holy fucking shit this is amazing
I want to get into racing sims (PC)
looking into dirt rally, iracing, and project cars. Which should I get?
do you guys play multiplayer or singleplayer?
>>332490036
The only sim among the ones you mentioned is iracing
>>332489684
I have extreme stage for PS3. It's pretty fun, but even after beating it I still can't quite grasp how you're supposed to take corners on it. Seriously.
>>332480267
It drives me crazy how many games screw up the way the taillights light up on the E30 M3. Forza Motorsport 2 was the laziest of all, they just lit up the whole damn thing when you used the brakes.
Devs replicate all kinds of taillight patterns on newer cars, so how hard can it be to figure out which sections of a fucking rectangle light up when you turn on the headlights or use the brakes?
>>332489691
briefly. Felt like Most Wanted Underground
>>332490228
how much different are they? they all claim to be realistic
>>332489441

You wish. NFS is an arcade racing niche, and not a particularly exciting one. Nowadays it's all GT clones. Even the NFS games are.

That's a valid genre; and besides, that doesn't prohibit it from setting the standard for other sub-genres within racing in terms of overall quality, does it? Why don't you demonstrate your point, if you disagree.
>and not a particularly exciting one.
See above (give reasons).
>Nowadays it's all GT clones. Even the NFS games are.
This contradicts your initial claim that NFS is an arcade style racer. So yeah don't know what the hell is the point of this.
>>332489684
Initial D:Street Stage on the PSP, runs fine on an emulator. It's Japanese only though so you'll have to navigate the menus by trial and error if you cant read runes.

It certainly is, and I enjoy the old style NFS massively. It's just not a good template for high speed high intensity racing, because the purpose of NFS is different. It's a car showcase, it's Top Gear without the fucking around.
>This contradicts your initial claim that NFS is an arcade style racer
NFS used to be its own distinct series. Around NFSU EA was hellbent on following fads. It has lost its own direction ever since, chasing ricer style, gangster, amateur GT racing and burnout in various ways.
>in terms of overall quality
meaningless phrase
>>332491606
is there any good PC racing game where I can drive the ae-86 or a car similar to it, and has online play? I got laid off from my oil field job recently so ive been binge watching Initial D to keep from getting depressed for awhile
>>332491606
>that feel when can't and probably never will be able to beat Bunta
>>332492156
Special Stage on PS2 , Emulate it. or play Street sTage on PSP
Grid as an AE86 too. but only for a handful of races.
>>332492364
thanks anon, ill have to check them out. Grid any good?
>>332492462
Its a decent racing game.
hafl the time you gonna be restarting the races tho.
>>332492623
why?
>>332492052
>It's just not a good template for high speed high intensity racing,
So what? That doesn't prohibit the possibility of some people finding the overall experience of playing the game to be fast and intense
>because the purpose of NFS is different. It's a car showcase, i
>i know what the purpose of NFS is and i can sum up an entire franchise in 4 words.
You don't know the "purpose" of NFS, rest assured. Not that I do either, I haven't played very many NFS games or racers in general. So whatever I'll grant you that EA sucks and as far as I'm concerned all modern games are categorically bad.
>>332492052
>meaningless phrase
Lol, no. It absolutely isn't.
>>332492805
>That doesn't prohibit the possibility of some people finding the overall experience of playing the game to be fast and intense
It does not, but it does not make the games good representatives, or templates, for high intensity racing.
>Lol, no
So now you tell me what "quality" NFS brought to the table, or how it impacts games like wipEout, Rollcage or F-Zero, you know, high speed high intensity racing.
Let's make it easier, tell me what "quality" NFS brought to the genres it later imitated, like closed circuit amateur racing? Gran Turismo and Grid kind of stormed ahead on both.
What is it? The physics models? The licenses? The meshes? The textures? The sounds? None of it. It's a meaningless phrase, because there's no consistency across these games that makes a term of vapor-y as "quality" applicable across the board.
The trackmania series satisfies my need for GOTTA GO FAST. So thats what I recommend.
>>332493071
>but it does not make the games good representatives, or templates, for high intensity racing.
What I've been trying to say is that, that's not necessarily true.
Like I said I'm no racing game expert by any means, so I won't presume to sit here and tell you in fine detail what separates NFS as a franchise from its racing-game peers and other racing franchises. But if you look at NFS:MW for example, objectively it is a solid game all around. It's the full package, it really stands out. Any game in any genre, especially nowadays, would do well to try to imitate that level of overall scope/execution of game design.
So no I don't think it's fairly unremarkable or mediocre or whatever you said before.
