I liked Wipeout on the original Playstation.
Am I too old for /v/?

What's the best modern PC racing gaming with arcadey elements? I'm chomping at the bit to play some Forza on PC (assuming they don't fuck it up for us).
I've played some Codemaster sims and they bored the fuck out of me so no simulators please.
This will never be surpassed
>>331453061
Burnout Paradise.
And no, 7 years is not old enough.
Also
>Codemasters
>simulation
They make good arcadey pseudosims, but the never ever did a proper simulation game.
GOAT
>>331453061
>codemasters
>sims
>>331453382
I know they aren't actually simulators, but they straddle the line closer than most so I probably wouldn't care for the more realistic kind of games.
Also, I probably should like Burnout Paradise more than I do, but I don't. I hate that game. I played the shit out of Burnout 3 and Revenge and hated Paradise's open nature. Fast driving is great when the courses are linear, but I kept going crosseyed trying to manage the map and my driving in Paradise. Not to mention taking one wrong turn and fucking over the entire race.
>>331453938
Emulate ridge racer type 4
>>331453938
Midnight Club told me how not to fuck up the no-course races.
'Cause completing them was necessary at some point, and until you git gud, you won't pass.
>>331454143
Is the one on Steam or 3DS any good?
>>331454306
I actually played a shitload of 3 back in the day and enjoyed it. Played Midtown Madness 3 as well. Both of those games didn't have the fucking speed of Burnout and had much better and open roads so fucking up in one turn wasn't as big of an issue.
>>331453938
Don't be worried, Burnout Paradise was a disappointment to us all.
>>331454581
Burnout's cars aren't even that fast, until the last tier, but you're supposed to get used to the speeding by that time.
>>331454975
When you have to micromanage with a shitty map in the corner of the screen they sure are. I don't want to spend half of my attention of a racing game on a crappy minimap. Midnight Club did it right by lighting flares so you could see where you were going without relying on a map all the time.
Shit, I'd be happy if they would have just placed arrow barriers when races started.
>>331455345
Guess I am a special kind of autist, because I actually bothered learning the map.
>>331455345
It's only inconvenient at first, Burnout Paradise only has like five "courses" that you re-do over and over and they're mostly straightforward so you eventually memorize them. And that's only for races, there's other modes where you just drive wherever.
>>331455345
>half of my attention
you learn the track by just playing it, it's only little difficult on start and even then you can just pay notice to blinkers
>>331455345
paradise's main draw was the online, lots of fucking around you could do
thats dead now I'm pretty sure thoug
>>331455495
Perhaps. I got the game in that EA bundle a while back and I just wasn't blown away by it.
I preferred the variety of tracks in the past games. Also Crash mode.
>>331454581
The 3DS one is amazing. Is one of the best arcade racers I played recently
Just got this on the Gamecube - completely missed it the first time round for some reason, despite being a massive fan of "sim" racing games and them being rare as hens teeth on the GC. Enjoying it so far, though the handling feels odd.
>no battle gear 2
;-;
>>331456278
How does it compare to Asphalt 3D, both look fantastic surprisingly.

WE ARE THE LAZY GENERATION
>>331456802
that feel when neither this nor Xtreme Racer games work on OpenPS2Loader
Modern racing games are way better than all the shit you faggots posted.
I remember playing Test Drive 6 on pc like 10 years ago. Anyone knows?
Might replay it for the nostalgia trip.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-Ue7l4Xxuo
The new trackmania is coming out in 3 days
>only 2 people mentioned this ITT
Fuck Burnout Paradise, this is all you need
Every time I play top gear I just can't let go until having done every tournament

>>331458339French actually
RIDGER ACER 7 WAS GOAT
FUCK NAMCO FOR KILLING THE GAME AFTER 7.
Apparently those mobile phone Asphalt games can be played through the Windows 10 store. Might give it a go and see if it's any good.
What's a good open world racing game with manual transmission?
>>331458680
Forgot video.
https://youtu.be/lThHWhbqmAM?t=143
This game was fucking gold
The soundtrack was pretty nice too
>>331458250
This t︂b︂︂h f︂︂a︂m, the only thing I don't really like is the soundtrack.
The open world didn't add anything good to Paradise. And just to nitpick, the pc version of Paradise has a 60fps lock, which i can usually live with but Burnout would really benefit from 144.
>>331449752
Okay. This is the bestand by that I mean my personal favouriteracing game.
The first racing game with a track editor, and it's a pretty good game too.
WHOA
BRAKE FOR THE SNAKE!
LETS GO AWAY
HOUSE REAL BIG
CARS REAL BIG
>>331458896
try out The Crew. its the spiritual successor to TDU.
Super Monaco GP for Sega Genesis/Mega Drive
Possibly the best racing game i ever played in my life, challenging opponents and winning their cars was amazing, gonna replay it soon.
>>331458896
>TEST DSUIVE
?
Rock this. R-r-ock rock this.
>>331459323
play OutRun and Hang-On if you haven't already, both good racers from Sega
>>331449752
Did anyone else used to play Big Red Racing? I still listen to some of the tunes from the soundtrack from time to time. The musics for England and Chile is fucking great and brings back good memories.
England
https://youtu.be/RSSlDeKKYjU?t=229
Chile
https://youtu.be/RSSlDeKKYjU?t=1163
>>331459464
I played a bit of OutRun back in the day, Hang-On i remember owning it but i NEVER touched it.
Gonna give them botch a chance for sure, after i replay Super Monaco. I'm currently trying to beat Top Gear on my SNES emulator in professional difficult with the red car and god damn, is it FUCKING HARD.
>>331459610

Didn't die it kind of languishes, games get shat out every now and then with no soul. 2007 was definitely the last year the seminal series was on any kind of radar.
Posting some of that master class R4 acid jazz soundtrack though.

Here's some gameplay, hope you enjoy it.
Has anyone here played Nascar Rumble?
>>331453938
I totally agree with you on paradise
>>331449752
Anyone play Powerslide? The music did it's job yet wasn't anything notable but the AI, sound and graphics all amazing back then. Such a same the company never got off the ground, and couldn't even ship a good number of CDs outside of Australia.
Still runs great if you get a wrapper for it. Although the video doesn't show it because I cannot find a good video of it.

>>331458958
What game?
i cant be the only one whos played this
Why do people always praise Burnout 3 and shit on Burnout Paradise only because it was open world but totally neglect Burnout: Revenge which was a refined Burnout 3 with better everything.
>>331459996
I'm going to marry Reiko Nagase!
>>331460023
>cel shading that doesn't make me want to vomit
gonna give the game props on that alone
>>331458896
I don't know if it was a combination of the soundtrack + location, but that game game a unique feeling
>>331460096
That game was the shit, One of the only ps1 games i still have
>>331460515
Stunts. Also called 4D Sports Driving sometimes. It was pretty advanced for it's time.
>>331460327
Probably a better video, but so fucking short. Not even a lap.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy8y_F8AWGo
>>331460637
What do you mean?
Man the difficulty of this game. It felt so good to finally achieve bronze licence, then a few days later you get all of them gold.
I want a fun new racing game on PC, should I buy Need for Speed (2016) for 36 euros ?
>>331460617
because the addition of traffic checking in burnout revenge completely ruined it
>le only old games are good maymay
ebin
>>331460617
I don't know, maybe cause it came in between generations. I didn't like it as much as 3 tho
>>331461229
this also
>>331458209
I never got the drifting right in this game. Is it even possible to properly drift arround a turn without loosing almost all of your speed?
Yakuza 5 was a better Initial D game than the actual Initial D game
>>331457625
I prefer pic related honestly. The first one had better car handling, but this one has a much better sense of speed.
Scramble is just straight up bullshit doe.
>>331460919
Thanks
>>331461229
>>331461341
There was traffic checking in Burnout 3.
I haven't owned a racing game since Gran Turismo 4 on ps2, I have a PS4 now and am looking to get back into it. Until the new Gran Turismo comes out, which is better between Driveclub and Project Cars? I'm not super concerned about absolute simulation, but more just overall enjoyment, graphics, different modes, etc
>>331460617
>>331460617
A ton of people didn't like traffic checking. I thought it was fun as shit. Also, the game looked gorgeous on release.

It doesn't have what makes Trackmania, Trackmania: custom fucking servers
If you're hyped for that Trackmania console edition you're brain dead
>>331458250
The definitive version.
>>331461725
Nope.
If you hit a car, you're dead.
>>331461725
It's been a while since i played 3, but i cant remember you being able to smash into the back of cars and send them flying into other racers like you could in Revenge.
>>331461947
Shit, really?
Damn, thanks for saving me 40 bucks

There was this one racing game I played on the dreamcast that was amazing when I was young. The only two things I remember about it was there was a level with a tornado(?) and another level where you went through a lave filled cave.
such a fun game
>we will never see a remake of this
>>331461725
you can only check other racers in 3, colliding with same direction traffic is a crash
>>331461947
I'm actually hyped anyway, but I'm waiting to see how it pans out. The online community for 2 is incredibly tiny after those expansions split the user base three ways. If the PC Version isn't overly gimped at least you can have all of the environments for 40 bucks.
>>331462542

>>331463010
That cover reminds me a lot of Speed Busters which was a lot of fun too

>mfw i had a 3dfx card and i could max out this game.
Those lights were dope as fuck back then.
Shame the 3dfx version had no cockpit and have to switch to software.
>>331458896
Is TDU 2 any good?
>>331460617
Nostalgia goggles.
For me, this one was clearly the best.
>no annoying radio dj

>GTA V has been the closest I've gotten to reliving the comfy driving experience of Outrun 2006
>There will never be another Outrun game with long roads and funky music where the entire point is just to go fast for as long as possible
Why am I not allowed to be happy?
>>331463425
The Steam version has weird DRM that gets shutdown with their flaky servers from time to time. Also I could never get it to run properly on modern hardware.
>>331463556
what nostalgia retard, they are from the same gen
>>331463425
it's ok, not as good as the first one for me
>>331463556
I did miss the DJ from 3. Gave the world something extra for me. Other than that Revenge is a better game.
>>331463403
>3dfx version had no cockpit
pretty sure there was a patch for that
Who /Miata/ here?

Why did music in NFS games go to shit over time?
Was it because dudebros and niggers?
>>331463556
>Nostalgia
There is only a year between the games, it's hardly enough for nostalgia.
>>331463681
>>331464020
Most people only played Burnout 3, and they ignore Revenge thinking that was just a rehash like Dominator.
>>331463920
No idea.
im also in the quest of a iso of "need for speed 2" but not the SE... just the regular one.
>>331464009
trends killed NFS, supercar fest was ok, until on 4 they introduced upgrades, then the promise of "motor city" (hot rod 3) and the detailed parts as porsche 2000, then FnF... and you know the rest.
>>331458958
I loved this game so much when kid, it was like a predecessor to the trackmania franchise.
The game in the picture tried to 'pay a homage' to Stunts, but it kinda failed, commercially speaking. It was pretty fun game too.
https://youtu.be/ZlBxonr5CQE
Grand Tourismo 2 is a masterpiece, but Midnight Club II is the funnest time I've ever had racing in singleplayer.
>>331462009
Eh I think 3 had better tracks and the traffic check and crashbreakers in races made it way too easy.
Revenge had the best crash mode of the series though.

don't forget about nfs5

You need to play 3 friend. It's a fantastic sequel with a ton of content.
i just recently bought pgr4 as my brother loved 2 so much and went in very reluctant. Fuck bikes.
Turned out, holy shit bikes are way more fun than cars to drive. Really didn't expect this.
>>331465149

No, not at all.
I distinctly remember coming off the road in my first race, clipping through a fence and a building, then driving up the river upside down. It might just have been a shitty console port, but I doubt it, the whole thing just felt... off. How they managed to bring such a poor quality game out after they did so well with the first one I have no idea.

>>331467979
Pretty much all 3D games from that era had awful framerates. Example of a similar game: https://youtu.be/7hpdj4mAxxM?t=5m01s
Look at that silky smooth sub 10 FPS. You can literally count the frames.
>that track
One more, from the Initial D PSP game
>>331468603
That game was a technical marvel on the C64. Just the physics were built around the low framerate, you were kinda magnetically attached to the surface and you nudged the car left/right rather than straight up turning.
The last racing game I really enjoyed was Grid, mainly for the drifting. Autosport was alright as well. Any other PC games that could sate my lust for hektik skidz? I feel like I'm limited to sims if I want something more substantial than just tapping brake during a turn.
Anyone else with Windows 10 willing to try this game out? It runs like shit on my machine but looks like it could be fun.

>tfw hearing the japanese version of the intro for the first time

Was there any reason for them to use the different music from each other? I remember the american version had a vocal version instead of a slow piano wind up and electric guitars.
>>331469859
Have previous Windows 10 only games had a framerate lock? And I agree, triple digit framerates just feel so smooth that going back to sub 60 framerates is just annoying.

Just imagine this with VR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5e-82_bnYg
Okay anons I'm a bit late but here is something I would like to share with all of you racing gamers.
I'm extremely sad that racing games with crazy physics are dead now.
Ridge Racer 7,
Burnout 3,
need for speed most wanted.
I lived that crazy shit but now the ps4 is only full of crap.
I recently got this f-zero WiiU game which is alright.
It's on the newer side of things, but fuck I miss Motorstorm as a series.
Drifting, smashing, boost mechanic with engine heat, split-screen multi w/ AI racers. It had everything.
>>331465394
>n NFS 2 you have description / showcase like this for every car
NFS 3 and 4, too, although NFS2 is the only one with those awesome car-specific music tracks.
Old NFS was just as much about the cars themselves as it was the racing and I miss that.
>>331467582
Rush 2049's tracks had so many shortcuts too. Some of which are difficult to do flawlessly but were required to beat the AI sometimes. God I loved that game.
>>331469446
You're asking me to spoonfeed you the disadvantages of an Universal Windows Platform game in /v/ ?
Do you actually play gameson PC and use the strengths of the platformor are just a console player ?

>>331466753
>>331452930
>Wipeout
My neagra. The only thing I remember aside from clocking in at 500+ kilometer an hour in the races was that OST that cemented my love for the genre. Took about 8 or so years before I realized exactly what it was that I was listening too. Weeks would be spent racing around the tracks hyper speed while those tracks play in the background.

>The utter and almost instant death of the PS3 Twisted Metal reboot
Fuck, I remember being hyped for that game before release. Then it got delayed, then I don't think I even noticed when it did come out. It sank completely without trace, just like you said.
>Blur
I did play and enjoy Blur. Local multiplayer was great.
Worst of all, Wipeout is dead. RIP Psygnosis, RIP Studio Liverpool.

Bizzare was one of my favorite game company's. I just played blur last week. Only 10 people online :( also am currently playing pgr3 for the memory's. For got how fucking great the soundtrack was

>>331469902
who knows, the gt1 and gt2 japanese soundtrack was pretty much completely composed by the guitarrist of a japanese band called T-Square. And it's fucking awesome

They said they are building the car models to be interchangeable between the series and the whole rebuild from F5 on was so they could take them to 4K quality (AKA "Forzavista"). I don't think Horizon 3 would have as many problems as Horizon 2 when they were still waiting on Turn 10 to finish the cars. There's something like 500 Forzavista class cars for them to pick from now. Though to Turn 10's credit they have the majority of weeb meme cars and legend cars in so you wonder what they could put in in Japanese car history (Maybe put back in the Tommy Kaira? Or the Castrol TOMS Celica?)
We're not getting full fat F6 as Greenwalt said they didn't want to do a full F6 port because they want to go into FM7 fully PC ready and wanted to do F6 Apex as a tech demo to get a feel for what PC players want (WHEEL SUPPORT).
I'd imagine they are going to finally do some dynamic TOD and weather for the next one. Especially as we might have that upgraded xbone by the time FM7 comes out.
>>331470835
The grind was real.
Seriously.
>>331470832
Not really a UWP issue though. Even the XBone port had framerate issues.
The greatest Racing game didn't have any wheels.

Yeah it was awful, P2W and grind up the ass.
Trackmania Turbo is releasing in 4 days, did any of you play the beta?
>>331459095
ROLLING STAAAAAAAAAART!
>>331471193
Yes, in a "spiritual successor" sort of way.
And one of the original devs has versions of Rollcage 1 and 2 reworked to run at widescreen and modern Windows.

>>331459356

>>331470913
>WHEEL SUPPORT
Even the console versions support wheel, don't they?
I would rather see mouse steering and multiple throttle levels on separate buttons on the keyboard.
>>331471686
Stuntman was pretty good, but unfortunately it was all memorization requiring you to do the levels over 1000 times
These are the best looking cars on PS3.
Might even be the best graphics on PS3. You guys probably already know this.
Driveclub is pretty good but I'm sorta bummed you can't tune cars and pulling the handbrake is vital to get a good drift
>>331471686
If that game has an instant restart of the current stage without the 30s reload time it'd have been received much, much better.
>>331464891
Man, NFS5 was the shit. Too bad it's unlikely we'll ever see anything on the same level.

Take the CR system from GT and 38 Jets with heavy customization and 14 tracks with Day and Night with Arcade and a career mode over 5 different leagues and great multiplayer that's tough as shit with a top tier soundtrack.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYk3VsDJKeY
>>331466167
The game didn't actually feature the 917. There were multiple mods for it, but no official one, which is a damn shame. Similarly shameful is the lack of the ridiculously successful 956/962 duo.
Great game tho
>>331472376
Yeah I played Blue Storm, but something about it just felt off compared to the first.
>>331472392
I played 5 and it was great. Frankly 6 should have been a launch title for the PS4. My PS3 got the ylod and now I want to play GT so bad but the next GT comes out later this year and isn't even a full installment
>>331462658
We need a remake of that. But alas, you're right.
Guys, I don't know what to do. Last racing game I truly loved was Gran Turismo 2 A Spec. All I have is a PC and a PS4. What are my options??
Who here rally king?

>>331472835
What kind of racing are you into? In any case, give Dirt Rally a shot, even with all its drawbacks it's easily the most fun I've had with virtual cars in a long time

>>331470835
I played for a little while before it closed. The grind was real, as >>331470927 said, and the physics were very simple but not at all bad- very Trackmaniaesque, to coin a word. More importantly, no constant-regen nitrous and easymode one-button-handbrake-drifting like in most other modern NFS games, all the ebrake did was grind you to a halt and make you lose.
It was shit but also easy to win at because no one could drive for shit.
For all its faults, it was also pretty cool seeing the Most Wanted and Carbon maps with modern graphics and seeing how they reworked them to change a few streets and get rid of the old Autozone, Motorola, etc tie-in buildings and ads.

>Implying the first one was bad when it plays exactly like the sequel except without gimmick and has different vehicules, all stars, good weapons and better narator
>>331473287
Gran Turismo 3 is the most perfect game I have ever played, I don't care what anyone says. The music, the tracks, the cars, the atmosphere, everything was perfect. 'Tis a shame my computer is too slow to emulate it.
While I like Transformed, I think it lost some of its charm between sequels, alot of the supers just seem so much less fun.
>>331473464
Haven't played the X Expansion Kit yet. Hoping to get to it soon.
Unlocked the AX tracks in GX a while back and bought the actual machine a couple weeks ago.
>>331474017
Well, I guess that explains why it looked similar.
If I'd knew it existed on Dreamcast back in the day I would have bought it

No showroom for buying however you do get your own garages you can walk around in an arrange your cars the way you like, you even get an arcade machine to play geometry wars.

And that was the point where I upgraded my PC and focused more on racing games for it instead.

>>331458680
Kek downloaded it here on my laptop and the game doesn't recognize my Nvidia GPU, had to run the game using the iGPU.
Even with the iGPU the game runs smoothly, but no directx overlays like MSI Afterburner. The visual of the game is pretty and the controls are extremely arcade and simple.
It's nice do kill some time once in a while.

>>331475640
This game was so fun. It was practically full-arcade but I don't think I've enjoyed a racing game quite as much as it outside of older NFS games and PGR2. Damn.
Not entirely racing, but this was 10/10. The game based on the remake I remember enjoying too.

I wish the older Burnout games prior to Paradise had gotten a PC version. Guess there's emulation at least.

>>331480885
Play the PC versions, they blow the PS1 versions out of the water.
Except graphically, where the PC ports mess up some of the lighting in NFS3.
You niggas have to play DIRT Showdown if you didn't. Game received so much flak because it wasn't like the old ones, but holy shit it's fun as fuck.

>>331481440

I don't think there was ever a better racing game.
This game is in my Top 5 games of all time, and I don't even like racing games that much, more of an RPG time.
In a way Most Wanted is an RPG though.

Assetto Corsa is fun, extremely easy to modify (add many new cars and tracks), and plays pretty arcadey if you play with assists. It also looks pretty damn beautiful.
Can get the game and all DLC for like 60 USD right now i think.
Alternatively, check out shift 2 and project cars, although for some reason i didn't have as much fun with those. Even though they both feel more polished than AC, i like the way AC drives.
Be sure to alter your steering sensitivity if using a controller (just google Assetto corsa controller settings, it's easy).
>>331474656
My nigga.
If that is easily emulatable i really need to get back on that.
Such a simple, but extremely fun game.
>>331482250
Thanks senpai, I'll have to check it out. Is it a bit like Forza? For some reason that's what vibe it gives me.
Shift 2 seemed interesting as well, but seems to have some pretty bad Steam reviews, something about shutting down the servers it seems.
Also, have AMD so Project Cars is out of the question.

>PS1 NFS3 & 4 > PC NFS 3 & 4
How can you say that at all, seriously? PS1 and PC NFS3 are pretty on par with each other, but PC NFS4 has way more features than PS1, doesn't run like shit, includes all the tracks from NFS3, is open to modding, still has working online play, damage modeling, and much better physics.
>>331482785
It does not use money or prize winnings of any kind, so it's not like forza or GT. You have access to all cars and tracks instantly and you can practice, race, take part in special challenges, or work your way up the career mode.
It is not as polished as a big game like forza or GT, but it can easily be modded and the driving is top notch. To add cars and tracks that others have made you literally extract to .../assettocorsa/cars(or tracks) and it shows up in game perfectly.
http://assettocorsa.club/en/
I had fun as a kid just exploring the map and making entertaining crashes.
>>331452140
I really don't miss Micro-Machines style of racing games where you're forced to memorize track layouts due to not being able to see 15 feet ahead of your vehicle.
>>331483375

not the guy, and i've played the psx version only like 3 times through epsxe, but still found it a bit better in some regards than the pc version
it felt a bit like the pc version of nfs:porsche, especially the handling/physics, the 3-wide tracks, and the pointless but cool turn/hazard lights
most car models look better in the psx version (Z3), though some are worse (Diablo)
it's got a few more soundtracks ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUA_MhxLAgg )
overall found it more difficult but slightly more fun (maybe it's a novelty factor), especially the hot pursuit mode looked more interesting and dynamic

In terms of mods, I have not downloaded a single car from that site that wasn't at least well done, and most of them are very well done.The 300 SEL merc, the honda NSX, and the lotus esprit v8 are three mod cars i've been using lately that i really enjoy. They are so easy to add to the game that sometimes i'll go through and just add a bunch of them and then i forget which ones are modded in and which are vanilla by the time i sit down to play.
The tracks that are based on real life tracks tend to be better than tracks that people just come up with on their own, probably because the real life tracks are ripped from other games and converted.
There is also a sweetfx mod that makes the game look more pretty.

Sold!
In all honesty, I'd love to do some F1 and open wheel racing in this. Looks like the game has a nice sense of speed.

Also, to add, the game is brutally realistic without assists on, but the traction control and stability control are controllable in 1% increments, so you can really dial in just how difficult you want the game to be.
Also the AI difficulty can be scaled from 100% (pretty hard but not impossible) to like 80% (easier than beating up a small child)

That mod is fucking bonkers. You can max it out on that top speed track (mod). I got it up to 350mph on the nurburgring but the bumpiness caused a horrific crash. lol

Can I tune it to be a bit more arcadey so I can play with a controller?
>>331484887
I run speed sensitivity 15%, steering speed 8% (in advanced), gamma 2.5 (advanced), filter .75 (advanced) and dead zone .02 (advanced) and it handles very well. It's much easier than the stock xbone controller settings.
It is possible to understeer (by turning the steering wheel too far) with my settings, but you can still go like 80%-90% left or right with the stick before you start to slide off the track.
I'm sure you could eliminate the ability to turn the wheel too far somehow, but i kinda like having to control my steering somewhat.

Let me guess, you don't consider racing sims to be actual racing games.

Mah nig.
Top fucking tier of racing right there. Perhaps not the best but it's among them.

Kinda sad that a lot of the "best looking cars on PS3" use the same models from GT4
