Best Racing Game

[asingh]

Guys,

Which is a good racing game which I should try my hand at. Have always played FPSs now want to try racing..!

1. Not too outdated in terms of graphics and game-mechanics.
2. Good vehicle options and competitive race circuits.
3. Vehicle upgrade options.
4. Can run on my 40" LED via HDMI using HD4890 Crossfire + Q9550 @ 3.8GHz @ 1080pi.
5. Responsive control system with a standard axis controller.

Thanks....!

Well, I liked Burnout Paradise, but the best I'd vote for NFS Most Wanted, as I think this is really the Best Racing Game I played till now(Can't say about Best Racing Game Released till now as I didn't played all Racing Games), according to gameplay, story, and everything.

But Burnout Paradise and Blur is something like Super Natural power games, so according to reality NFS MW is best according to me.

MW ftw !

1st try NSF MW & after you finish it, jump to any other title like Burnout (Crash maybe out till then) or HP. or maybe Dirt2.

Voted for Most Wanted. Although I like burnout paradise too.

But MW got repetitive after a while, especially the escapes from cops.

Just added a last option.

the guy with last option needs some variety

Instead of releasing so many FPS games, developers should spend time on making quality racing games. haven't seen one in quite a while. No, I do not enjoy sims, I love good ol' arcade.

Dirt 2 all the way!!

for first timer?

hmmm, its better if they release a few quality FPS instead of a ton of short & buggy FSP. or pre-scripted ones.

about the racing games i agree. its most 1:5 ratio (1 race against 5-6 RPG/FPS/TPS). maybe RAGE will solve this problem.

Rankings IMO...............

1. NFS MW

2. NFS HP

3. NFS Shift

4. NFS Undercover [story sucks & patches are highly required, as its buggy]

5. Disney Split Second.

6. Grid

7. Dirt 2

8. NFS Carbon

9. FIA-WRC [won't like this, after playing Dirt 2]

Apart from this big list, you can try F1 2010.....awesome with 1080p gaming.

Thanks guys. Keep it coming...!

Ordering a 10' HDMI cable...!

I think NFS HP has very good competitive races bt vehicle upgrades are not provided .. try this .. it may take time to complete rounds bt graphics and control is gr8.

 

[Dangerous Dave]

i like NFS Most wanted and GRID

 

[vamsi_krishna]

I will highly recommend playing each and every one of those games. All of those are real good PC games. Let alone in racing genre.

But, if a certain game must be pointed out.. I will choose Grid in simulation racing.. and Burnout Paradise in arcade racing.

 

[.=Pyro=.]

i don't know about best but my favorite is Burnout Paradise.

 

[topgear]

for me best racing games of all time are NFS Most Wanted and NFS underground 2.

 

[Garbage]

As I already suggested to you, NFS MW FTW!

 

[thetechfreak]

As you havent yet played Most Wanted, I voted for that.
For best track experience play Shift.
For ultimate destruction, insanity, etc play Paradise City.

After you are with these you may want to play Grid.

Actually most wanted will not support 1080p , so i selected DIRT 2 ! Nothing beats most wanted !
