It's fair to say we were absolutely spoiled with racing games in 2017, in what was a landmark year for the genre. In the space of just one month, we witnessed three contenders from major franchises jostle for position in a spectacular race to the finish line. After a long four year wait, Gran Turismo made its belated debut on PS4 with the release of the online eSports-focused Gran Turismo Sport, but it faced stiff competition from its Xbox rival franchise. Forza Motorsport 7 boasted the most comprehensive car selection of any racing game released this generation, as well as crisp 4K graphics and a new, more engrossing career mode.
Taking on these two racing game goliaths was Slightly Mad Studios’ racing simulation Project CARS 2. As the least established IP, Project CARS 2 was the ambitious underdog with huge potential, promising to be most authentic racing simulation ever made with a diverse variety of racing disciplines, an innovative dynamic weather system, and an unrivalled track selection. Annual licensed games such as MXGP 3, MotoGP 17, WRC 7, and F1 2017 also all saw significant improvements that elevated them above typical incremental updates, while futuristic racing fans were treated to the long-awaited comeback of the WipEout series with the release of WipEout: Omega Collection.
GT: Sport won 3 of the categories but PC2 won the best racing game category. Now I have to try PC2.
I tried the demo to PC2, and the handling I just couldn't get a grasp on lol. I'll try it again to see if I can get into it. GTS I'm loving because the handling is awesome, also I won 1 online race out of like 30-40 😂
I got a GTS racing chair and a thrustmaster T300 Gran Turismo edition wheel just for GT:Sport, and it didn’t disappoint. I just figure if this PC2 takes the title over GT:Sport I might as well give it a try because GT:Sport is great.
Not a big F1 or racing fan, but kudos to this developer for ADDING LAN support...
See Devs....You can make games work OFFLINE for multiplayer....
Now Ubisoft can you do the same with Ghost Recon Wildlands please...?
