I liked Auto Modelista for some bizarre reason. Cell shaded cars look saw awsome and the effects were pretty neat. The cars' drivability was eh when accidently doing donuts on a hill with a Fairlady Z lol.

My Favorite arcade game though has to be a tie between Initial D and Maximum tune cause of the origionality of saving your game threw a magnetic card and choosing your upgrades. Best car in Initial D that I use is my RX-7. In Maximum tune it is the Subaru WRX STi. Insanity I tell you.

Need For Speed series :P

Most Wanted is my absolute favorite! Underground 2 is a close second, probably only because of the drifting ;)

Need for Speed 5: Porsche Unleashed for PC is one of my favorites.

Car damage, money management, dashboard view and factory driver mode.
All features that new NFS games (and most others) do not have... now shouldn't sequels have more features than its predecessor??

Fia GT Racing (GTR). Best simulator I have tried.
Need for Speed sucks! Alla arcade games sucks!
Live for Speed is also cool.

Nothing beats Top Gear 8)


I used to play initial D. It's horribly unrealistic and there are always cocky 14 year olds hogging the machines, but it's entertaining.
Lately tho I've been playing Battle Gear instead. It's like initial D, but realistic (in terms of physics, but you don't take damage). Breaking/accelerating effects your traction, drifting actually takes practice (and tends to slow you down), and the everything looks realistic.
At home I play Burnout 3. Racing and blowing things up never looked better.

Gran Turismo 4

Hundreds of hours....such a good learning too, as well

I went from knowing nothing about cars at all, to having a fairly good idea at what all the different tunings can do
