From the screenshots it looks like RRPSP with some minor visual upgrades. Hopefully it’ll have all the old-school courses and music like RRPSP did.
ridge racer is nice and all, but i need daytona 1 & 2 in new graphics and scud racer in hd.
That F1 looks kind of hot. I might have to scoop that. I used to be a pretty big GT 1-3 fan, but since I’m not on PS3 these days, Forza seems to be the next best thing, which I found to be kind of boring compared to GT. But F1 2010 looks like it might be worth a shot…
It’s been years since we’ve had a proper F1 game. I’m so excited. But like NFS Hot Pursuit, I don’t know what system I’m gonna get it for…
Yeah I’ve been thinking about Daytona a lot lately myself…
New car pack is out for Forza 3. While it’s’ nice to get so many new cars I’d like for them to go back and get some older stuff the flesh out the game some more. Ford Cosworth anyone? SVT Lightning? Delorean lol.
I want a Thunderbird SC in Forza lol… Yeah some older stuff would be cool. Like a lot of those secretly decent little-known cars like Dodge Spirit R/T and such. At least the RS200 made it in.
It is odd that there isn’t a Lightning.
I hated MCLA cuz the city was boring. Give me an awesome fun fictional city built for racing…not a real world boring ass one not made for racing at all. MC2 is still my favorite Midnight Club.
There was supposed to be that Jalopnik Car Pack with the 190E Evo and the Escort Cosworth, but maybe it was delayed?
Well I think there was a Jalopnik Car Pack but it didn’t have the Cosworth.
The first one that’s already out was chosen by the staff of Jalopnik. That was all new cars.
Then there was the one that was voted on by the Jalopnik readers (and by proxy, FM.net’s community of drooling 15-year-olds) that’s not out yet. The one that had a ton of last-chance votes because a SAAB didn’t get in, and after the voting was done, all the Drift Lounge idiots were still mad because their S13 Silvia hatchback wasn’t in.
Honestly, I bring up Ridge Racer 4 because it was completely unlike any other RR. The amount of cars, the spokesmodel (Reiko Nagase) the “storyline,” the Namco homages… and don’t forget what is arguably the best soundtrack for any racing game ever. (all music made for the game, not licensed stuff.)
Man, they need to drop that as a PS1 classic for the PS3.
If you have Gold, and play on a pad then 360. Obviously more people play on Live, and secondly with default controllers, you can modulate throttle and brakes much with RT/LT than R2/L2.
Unless, you just plan to hav it on both, like I do with Test Drive Unlimited 2.
I just got Forza again. I got fed with Fallout’s glitchiness, and some dude off Craigslist gave me Forza+cash for it. I’d say it was an equal deal, Forza is 40 and Fallout GOTY is still 60.
The new Power A PS3 controller might be better for some racing games than the DualShock 3, I’ve got plans to buy one and test it out for myself.
I’ll still play RR7 and Wipeout HD with the DualShock 3 but as you mentioned it’ll be great for a game like F1 2010 which almost requires you to have concave triggers like the 360 and DC have. This is, of course, assuming you don’t already have a Logitech wheel + stand.
Well, if anyone feels like doin some Forza sometime send me a request, I’m pretty much down for anything in that game, even if it’s just messin around on Benchmark layout A for a few.
Got first place in all of episode 1 of Split/ Second. Took me a good number of tries, too. Fortunately, I’ve been really into Trials HD lately, so I’ve been going through some good frustration training. Something tells me it will have come in handy for the races ahead.
Pumped for the new Hydro Thunder, too.
I didn’t know that The Station No. 2 in Huntsville had H2Overdrive.
So I finally played it, and yep, it pretty much feels like Hydro Thunder, but with all the boat names changed. Not a bad thing at all. Hydro Thunder Hurricane better be mind-blowing.
Just ran across this modified Sega driving cab that can run PS3 and Model 2 racing games. Get a look at this shit IMMEDIATELY.
I want 8 of these.
Hot, but he needs to use a Sega Ferrari 355 deluxe cab. LOL.
I give this title to Tokyo Xtreme Racer 1. There isn’t a single other racing game I can play to it’s own music, other than Rad Racer 1 and 2.

There are some remixes of TXR1 music in TXR Zero, but they’re kind of faggoty.
An original song from TXR:

Most racing games seem to opt for licensed stuff. I do wish more racing games had original soundtracks.
This game is going to shit on F1 CE for PS3.

Cannot fucking wait for this game. HYPE!
