I was getting comfy with gran turismo like a chad
>snoygger
>chad
gran turismo is the greatest racing franchise of all time
By what metric?
all of them. best gameplay, best music, best style, most realistic driving
You have shit taste, ridge racer is just better
>implying UG2 wasn't played on a console as well.
How else are you going to get cozy with a blanket unless you're a consoleshitter.
I was getting comfy with both, AND Midnight Club AND Burnout
test
The ricer fad was for idiots so I was still playing NFS Porsche Unleashed in 2004
The Doors featuring Snoop Dog is peak early 2000s dude bro.
Not just that but it's actually an Infected Mushroom song, as far as I'm aware
I just want a new Ridge Racer game.
Had good memories of the game, so I replayed it a few months ago - still holds up. This game made me regard 350Z as the best car ever. Haven't played any racing games since then though, maybe I'll charge my Vita and finish WipEout 2048 proper
I never liked the 350Z and all its variants.
It looked fat and slow. like a hippo.
>Black person dog
NICE CAR, gay
Only UG2 track I care about
The music from the intro trailer mogs it
>not even the best U1 song
I hate U2 gays with passion. U1 was so much better in every aspect. Open world element is absolutely pointless waste of time and adds nothing to gameplay. Playing U1 is just pure undiluted fun in comparison.

>pointless waste of time and adds nothing to gameplay
Sometimes you just want to cruise while listening to music without being in a race, homosexual.
Most Wanted is literally unplayable without this mod
that isn't the extra options mod
Glad to see it nerfed but wow the R34 was a castrated shitbox in U2
You could tune up all cars to a point where they could hold their own, even the tofu shitbox.
>tfw didn't know anything about this shitbox at the time so I never picked it in any of the NFS games and was always confused why this have this not be the starter car.
I want to go back.
Why do all modern racing games have such incredibly shit music.
Old games had multiple bangers from multple genres so you're guaranteed to like at least half.
Modern stuff is just all 100% shit, be it NFS, Forza, the crew, whatever.
Like rock music is almost non existent anymore.
unironically because rock/metal isn't as good anymore
aside from a few bands everything sounds the same and generic
bands like disturbed, avenged sevenfold, etc got old, so the only real option is to just use old music
why did arcade racing games die?
They haven't they are more popular than ever.
Unless you don't consider Forza and the Crew "arcade" because muh simcade.
I don't, worrying about breaking points makes it not arcade in my book
Also people turn off the music while racing in those games. The ost is one of the thing that made NFS:U and Burnout 3 iconic
I don't know, I feel like iRacing changed everything
Consumers only want to buy simulators and Gran Turismo clones these days
I'd like to buy a Gran Turismo clone but no one is making them. Even Polyphony can't get GT right at this point.
The issue is nobody is making GT clones with proper career modes where you climb the ladder.
It's all instant gratification straight into S1 class 5 minutes after booting the game now.
that and all that fricking moronic forced social media integration and character customization with emotes to show off in front of other morons.
I think arcade racers killed themselves, and it started with Burnout Revenge.
It was completely pussified compared to 3, you could now at any point simply retreat into your safety net by taking the right lane, since crashing into cars would just send them flying before you.
Look at arcade racers today. Trees, bollards, fences, random cars just get plowed through, roads are insanely wide in all games and it all leads to everything feeling slow and weak. Racing in GTA has a better feeling of white knuckle racing.
Even if its an arcade racer need that feeling of tension, that one frick up could lead you to crash and burn.
And it's on the writing too, in NFSMW you get fricked over, Razor makes you his b***h in the eyes of the city, you get pissed on and have to claw your way to the top.
Modern NFS is afraid of even presenting you stakes.
>Trees, bollards, fences, random cars just get plowed through, roads are insanely wide
That and the introduction of rewind to fix any mistake
That said GRID was still good despite of that.
Because they lost the sense of speed and danger.
Nobody wants to play a game that neutered.
1 was better. City roaming was a gimmick that wasted your time
The 90s were better, but the 2000s were probably the last comfy decade we will ever have
No, 00s were the best because it was the transitional period of "no internet" to "everything is the internet".
It was the peak hybrid analog/digital era.
Now everything is digital.
