This is the first real racing game I've played in 15+ years (I do not count Trackmania). I have never really liked racing games but I wanted to try one out to see if anything had changed. Still not really my genre. But the game was free on PS+ a few years ago so it was risk-free to try it out.

I am bad at racing games. After this plat, I think I am slightly less bad. The single player campaign was interesting and very challenging for me, and it forced me to improve. As someone who doesn't really know how to play these games, it does not really give you much of a tutorial, but I figured things out.

The platinum required me to play around 50 online races. That sucked. The online for this game is pretty dead (game is 5 years old) and mostly dominated by players who have tens of thousands of races. There also are a lot of glitches that made the experience more tedious than it should have been. But my number one complaint about the online is the players. They love to ram and cause pile-ups and it makes the racing suck. I recently played Trackmania Turbo and I think that is as far into the racing/driving genre as I care to go. The time trials are fun but I do not enjoy racing against other cars.

As to why I got the platinum if I do not like racing games, well it was an easy one except for the online grinding. Once I got close, I just stuck it out.
