It has its moments, and that map is just fucking gigantic. The sequel looks really good.

Unfortunately I've never played the F-zero series, but many people have made the comparison.

I just loved that Wipeout necessitated a complete and utter mastery of the racetrack before you even think of competing in them. Your timing for airbrake use had to be surgical. Weapons are useful yet not gamebreaking. You can also choose to use your weapon to instead replenish your shield energy, which leaves you with critical decisions down the stretch: If you're second place in the last leg of a race and you've got a missile that'll guarantee a hit on the first place guy, do you decide to fire it and hope to overtake him? Or do you instead convert the weapon into shield health because you're low on power?

What I've been playing lately:
Ride 2: The career mode has that addictive sense where you're always unlocking something new or progressing to that, but there are some real issues with balance and polish. Everything feels just that little bit off.

F1 2017: I think this was the best racing game of the last year. I've put 80 hours into it and there's still so much more I haven't done, single player alone.

WRC 7: I like it, but I worry that there's just not enough of it. Haven't gotten to that point yet, though.

If you like fzero or the n64 podracer game you should check out Redout. It's a mix of both of them, and some of the vehicles look exactly like podracers

And no matter how much I may dislike it, I'll finish it simply because I spent money on it.

But seriously though my only platform right now is PS4 after getting rid of my Xbox forever ago and my PC dying. It's really slim pickings for racing games on PS4. Shit even Gran Turismo was a bust, I'm sure the next one that comes out halfway through the PS5's lifespan will be fun though......

Forza Horizon series is virtually the only racing games I have ever played that I enjoyed. It isn't without trying many, many others. I entirely wrote off the genre until Forza Horizon was free with Gold and I figured why not for free, and got stupidly addicted.

Looking forward to the 4th, but I don't think I can contribute much to this conversation outside of those games.

I finished replaying nfs: most wanted (05) last week and I'm now playing through nfs: carbon.

I haven't been looking forward to anything, because i want a decent arcadey racer, but ea seems unable to make a decent nfs game and rockstar killed off midnight club.
The remaster of burnout:paradise is the only thing that looks promising in the future.

This, Mario Kart 64, and Wave Race 64 were my holy trinity of games as a kid. My dad, brother, and I loved these games so much and would race each other in them all the time. It sucks that Mario Kart seems to be the only one that has survived. I'd buy a new DKR or Wave Race game in a heartbeat.

They peaked with GT4.

The last racing game I really played for more than an hour is Grid, and that was last year cause I got it free, it is good though.

I've enjoyed PS4 Baja- pretty cool racer. I have also just gotten Moto Racer 4 for PS4. Fun little game!

I never beat Carbon because the game throws everything it build up through the whole campaign once it gets to the last three races. Plus, the only class worth using was the exotic one.
