It’s widely considered the best nascar game everin terms of physics simulation. A lot of that game’s devs, along with a significant portion of it’s physics code would later make their way into iRacing

This is the only NASCAR game the world needs. The new one doesn’t really look any more complicated or sophisticated because... well, it’s still NASCAR
I’ll stick with Nascar Racing 2003 Season and use the MENCS2019 mod (based on the current generation of cars) until I see more, thank you.
An article I read elsewhere said the dispatcher was alerted and the NTSB will be looking into why that wasn’t relayed. My guess is the conductor was asleep at the wheel, the track was a straight line, he should have seen the truck from a distance

Shilling, you luddite, socialist, capitalist baiting yout! You conveniently left out Shatner’s crowning achievement as an actor. He was T.J. Hooker !
That Hot Wheels Unleashed game is actually pretty good, too. Captures some of the whimsy and nostalgia of Mario Kart without being a clone. And the fact that it’s quite possible to just yeet yourself off the track if you go too fast really sells the authentic Hot Wheels experience.
*We* called it R/C Pro Am.
If everything is amortized and each car built is gravy it would be dopey not to. But we know the real reason comes down to this...
I get these as rentals regularly. I don’t see that they really need a refresh. They are unique on the market at this point, the tooling is long paid for, they are very reasonably priced and pretty nice to drive with a reasonable level of modern conveniences. Just leave well enough alone.
Oh I know. We have them here. Read more
The Wii U is not sold in stores anymore, and as far as I know, is no longer being manufactured. That puts five titles out of availability to just go purchase. Just because you can go purchase them second hand does not make them commercially available.
Emulation has a massive performance overhead. The ratio of “system you can perfectly simulate” to “system it runs on” is pretty wide, and graphics accelerator hardware (as I understand it) is pretty useless because old consoles ran on completely different math than what GPUs are designed to do, so you have to get the… Read more
Anyone who doesn’t need to a pirate a new brain could tell that the pro-piracy comments were in reference to the notoriously difficult to attain backlog Nintendo keeps buried in dead systems.
That’s been my problem with FH since the beginning. I played the first, and enjoyed it because you start off with lower tier equipment. Since FH2, it’s been serious sports cars from the outset. It’s just not that much fun. Read more
Okay thank you for perfectly describing the handling of NFS: Hot Pursuit. I bought the remaster and I still love the game but my god that shit has always bugged me. Like it doesn’t keep the game from being good, it doesn’t stop me from enjoying it, but it’s never not noticeable. I tell my friends it’s like driving a… Read more
All your concerns are mine too, so I find them valid. The game should have you start with a crappy car and make your way up, but that ship has sailed.
I had a Street Fighter 2 Arcade 1Up cabinet, and it was pretty underwhelming. Yes, you get all the nostalgia of arcade controls in a package that takes up far less space than the real thing, but a lot gets lost in the low-cost flat pack Arcade 1Ups. The joysticks and buttons aren’t stellar, the wiring is fragile, and… Read more
Wow this brings back memories! As an employee of Videologic in the late 90's I now realize I could well have been playing on the rare Rave Racer demo cabinet, once the Dreamcasts had taken over the demo room (along with epic Crazy Taxi sessions) the proper sit down arcade cabinet was relegated to the corridor outside… Read more
