Driving & Racing: General

[Ergakael]

Hi,

I'm getting sick of F1CE now,  I must have driven 50-60 seasons now and I need something new.

had a game of Forza 3 on my friends xbox and it seems good, is there anything like it for the PS3?

I just want a driving game where you buy better cars etc.  I dont want any silly things like the ones where you crash for points or anything like the poor need for speed games.

a forza clone would be sweet.. anyone?

edit-  Note.. I only play offline

Well, no buying cars but Burnout Paradise is brilliant and Motorstorm is great fun and GT5 is being released in Nov and Forza is A Gran Turismo clone (GT) NOT  The other way around!!

I'll have a look at burnout, I know Motorstorm is not the kind of thing I'm looking for.  I hate arcade racers.  prefer more sim' based.

thanks

If you hate arcade racers, then Burnout isn't for you either.

There are a few sim racers out there that are worth your look. Ferrari and Supercar Challenge are good, but they are very challenging. Gran Turismo 5 is here in November, and that will be all you need once it's here.

May I suggest you head to the Gran Turismo section here on OPC. Currently there is online event taking place on Gran Turismo 5 Prologue; it's a lot of fun, easy going and a great for the new Gran Turismo racer. And if you don't have GT5p, it only costs £10-£15 to buy.

Thank you

If you're not fussed about trophies, try Grid - it's pretty old and you could get it cheap. Also try Dirt2, but that's a bit more arcadey. But it's basically Grid offroad.

I'm heading into town a bit later on today. I'm also looking for a decent sim racing game. I've heard good things about Supercar Challenge so I'm going to try and pick that up. I'll report back later with my thoughts.

Would really appreciate it, thanks

I finally managed to find a copy of SuperCar Challenge but haven't had time to try it yet. I'll definitely give it a go tomorrow and post my thoughts.

Any news?
