Great racing sim for the hrdcore racers out there. Real racing for hardcore Racers. Follows on from GTR2 and GT Ledgends

User Rating: 8.4 | RACE: The WTCC Game PC
I am an avid PC racer, I have played almost all of the important PC race sims over the years, and I have found that Simbin is the best of the lot for developing the serious racing sims. This latest installment is no exception. The real physics are upheld, without the massive V12 cars found in GTR2, and as a result, it is a bit easier to play. Dont get me wrong, the physics are still top notch, you need to know the braking points of the tracks and the limitations of the car that you are driving. You cant through it into corners, Pro Street style, which is what makes this game great. You have to THINK about the next corner and each little mistake can translate into seconds lost each lap. Move over Grn Turismo, these games are the REAL driving simulators. The selection of cars is a bit smaller this year, although the open wheelers and formula 3000 make an impression. The online element of the game is very strong. Joining a online session of 30+ players really makes you concentrate, because if you stuff up, you have 29 other hardcore racers giving you a hard time about the stupid pass or that little nudge. Overall, it is one of the best Hardcore racers out there. It is no Pro Street, thats for sure, but aims to fullfill the proper racing fans. Bring on a F1 Simbin game!
