Mister Random writes: Race Pro is what I class as a serious racing simulation and in terms of games already available is very similar to Forza 2 in terms of game play. In some respects it is even less forgiving that Forza 2 in terms of car control as I have found myself going off track more frequently than in Forza 2. There is a good range of real world tracks provided including several that are rarely simulated, and they avoided the racing sim cliche of doing yet another version of the Nurburgring though they do have Mazda Laguna Seca which is probably almost as bad in terms of being in most racing games. There are also plenty of tuning options if you want to try that out on your cars but it is entirely optional, however in all other respects there is nowhere near the wealth of customization options that Forza 2 provides.
It’s no secret that the Xbox 360’s lifespan is coming to an end, meaning we’ve got an extensive library of games to sort through and possibly trade-in to GameStop or EBGames. Because of this, used Xbox 360 games are incredibly cheap, and a lot of people might be spending this summer adding those last few games to their collections.
Time to round up the best racing titles in a Top 10 run down.
