/vr/ - Retro Games

MX-5 is best car btw

>>7104905
I was just thinking the same thing. That was the shortest vroom yet.

>>7104905
>>7105286
I think it somehow managed to be forgotten about. Not good in the slightest.

>>7105308
That's the first thought I had ;(

So /vroom/ what's your favorite Trackmania environment?
Mine's Desert. Stadium is cheating. Everyone knows it's objectively the best.

>>7105413
Either the canyons or sunrises landscapes

Train hazards make me moist.

>>7105413
Also speaking of trackmania, idk if this is retro but I'm curious regardless, anyone play crash day?

>>7105413
Island, with Bay as a close second. Sunrise really had the best gimmick to it.

>>7105506
>Bay
Always felt like a worse Snow to me. Island is really the only one from Sunrise I like.

>>7105456
It's a 2006 PC game so yes, it's comfortably retro.
I played it as a kid. It's pretty damn good for being basically an indie game(which usually had Team6 shit type of stuff in that budget bracket). Got a nice soundtrack too.
I used to play tons of Davilex and Team6 shit as a kid and somehow even enjoyed it despite also playing NFS and Midnight Club at the same. They had weirdly good music sometimes.

>>7105626
Yeah I remember very much enjoying it as a young man myself aswell! I'm tempted to buy the "remastered" one to give it another go. Shake that no one probably plays it unfortunately. I remember it being a mix between car combat and trackmania if I remember correctly

If that fits the retro rule then why did people tell at me for posting a psp game from 2005 ;(

>>7105739
*Yell*

>>7105413
Sunrise, Coast, and Stadium

>>7105739
PSP is a seventh-gen console, only 6th gen console games are allowed, PC is a grey area since it doesn't have strictly defined generations

An OK little Sega Rally thread here: >>7103467

not vr but I gave FH4 a go and holy fuck is it shit.
>eventually get through the mindnumbing prologue
>have tonnes of credits and free spins on the lootbox thing
>buy a bunch of shitboxes
>takes an hour because it's so fucking slow
>finally figure out how to get into a multiplayer race
>offroad rush or whatever
>all you do is point your car towards the finish line and hold throttle down
I don't get it. Why are simcades and arcade games so allergic to creating fun and/or competitive racing?
It's like Facebook car groups in game form. Pure carwank for normalfags.

>>7106202
I stopped gaming after the sixth generation but I've seen videos of new games and they just seem completely devoid of any sort of creativity.

>>7104905
What are some good racing games on the PSP? Preferably arcade or sim.

>>7106064
Ahh, makes sense

>>7106189
What's the best way to give Sega Rally a shot? I tried emulating Sega Rally 2 for Dreamcast, but the frame rate drops are pretty distracting.

>>7106781
OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast and Ridge Racer 2 are both fantastic.
Wipeout Pulse, if you don't mind nu-Wipeout.
TOCA Race Driver 3 Challenge
The PSP Gran Turismo is good, but it doesn't have the typical career mode and you can't upgrade cars.

And while it isn't strictly a racing game, give Gripshift a shot. It's a Racing/Platformer/Puzzle game hybrid and it's great fun, with nothing else like it.

>>7106781
Nascar Thunder on the PSP. It has all the features of the console version I think and even has a rewind function before rewind became a staple in some games.

>>7105589
That's fair, I really liked the city setting and the faster speed compared to Snow. Being able to hop from building to building was a lot of fun.

man adding the ps2 made this thread too small

splashdown 2
nascar thunder
atv 2
burnout 3
need for speed
ssx
juiced 2
midnight club
gran turismo i guess (looked boring to me so i never played it)

>>7108030
>man adding the ps2 made this thread too small
What? Surely adding a console would make it bigger?

>>7107168
Outrun 2006 looks fantastic on PS2

>>7104905
What's the best Need for Speed and Burnout, fellas? including non-retro ones [/spoilers]

>>7108048
3 best burnout. 4 is good too, best on 360

>>7108048
nfs: most wanted probably
burnout: 3 or revenge

>>7105308
>>7105286
a lot of people are just making random racing game threads, if you see them guide them to here for next time

is vanishing point as bad as peolpe say it is ?

>>7108208
On PS1 yes, on Dreamcast no.

>>7106781
All of the ones already mentioned, plus MidnightClub LA Remix, Motorstorm Artic Edge, FlatOut 2's port and Modnation Racers
It runs PSX games natively, so all of the good PSX games run on it just fine
>>7105286
True that, and that's extra sad since it was my picture in the OP :(

>>7106630
Me too but I occasionally check in on the odd game to feel bad about it. It's just car gacha really. I'm also not fond of this Burnout paradise style of open world where every road is a winding 60mph back road with no character or interested track routes.

>>7108030
huh?
>>7106781
Only play Outrun if you are emulating it. It has terrible frame drops. Sega Rally and the two burnout games are good. No idea how they run on hardware though.

Can anyone recommend a reasonably beginner-friendly rally game?

>>7109149
V-rally 3

>>7109149
Richard Burns Rally

>>7109170
Does the PC version play nice with modern systems or should I just emulate?
>>7109195
>This game is considered by many gamers to be one of the most realistic and difficult racing simulators
Not sure about that one.

>>7109216
pretty sure the RBR anon was joking

>>7109149
CMC. There's only like 1 hard stage. and for whatever reason on this stage the car refuses to slide and you just hold down throttle and go fast, so that's a little bit weird.

Thinking of getting a wheel for PC. How big of a pain in the ass will it be to get it to work with retro games like Gran Turismo 2?

>>7109606
pcsx2 has a wheel plug-in but I never could get it to work. Don't even know if any PS1 emulator has an equivalent.

>>7108208
no the dcast game is amazing but its strong pleb filter.

>>7108208
All I remember is failing early and often

>>7109606
Just leeching of this guy's question, I was thinking of getting a PS2 wheel and pedals. Are they worth it or better to stick with analogue sticks

>>7110890
You probably won't need to play Wipeout Fusion with it for example, but games like Gran Turismo and Colin McRae Rally are incredibly fun with a wheel. Honestly, I love GT4 enough that I'd say that's worth it alone, but you'd have to decide for yourself if there's enough PS2 racing games you'd play to make it worth it.

>>7106781
It has an original story and better crew system

>>7109149
I personally recommend Colin McRae Rally 2005. It's like 4, only better.

>>7109528
Because it's tarmac dumbass.

hai

Finished Project Gotham Racing 2 earlier (or at least the world series on normal and want to move on). I'm thinking about starting Rallisport Challenge, Enthusia or Motor Toon Gran Prix.
Was considering Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 but I've never gotten into NFS at all. Is it a decent place to start?

SNES Mario Kart

>>7111316
Last time I checked, tarmac does not have insane magnetic qualities that remove lateral movement and let you hold down accel forever
>>7109606
If you're getting a wheel don't get anything less than a g27/g29. Anything cheaper is chink tier Christmas present bait. It's usually not hard to get it working with emus or older games but getting FFB that isn't shit is another story.

>>7111668
In Russia, Need For Speed Underground is the most beloved one. It's basically a cult game here. I'd recommend it.

>>7108043
They all look "great" but PS2 is the worst looking home console version

>>7111668
NFS HP2 on PS2 is a perfect place to start because that version was made by Blackbox and is different than the multiplat version, that and HP2 is a straight to the point no bloat racer that excels in arcade driving and all around excitement.

>>7111679
I remember when that came out, renting it and eventually buying it. Still is my favorite Mario Kart.
Wish they made at least two more in that style?

>>7109738
> strong pleb filter.
in what sense ? difficulty ?

>>7111770
what about DFGT?

Never played a PC main/only racing game, retro or not, and never used a wheel. Are there any decent portable(?) wheels with whatever parts that can fit in 12"x12"x6"/30cm-30cm-15cm? I saw some PC Logitech ones listed in the thread as general use, no idea what else people like.

>>7112704
Well mainly wanted to replay Gran Turismo games through emu if it's decent enough, got lost redoing my post. Seems like a wheel for some systems and one for PC is what people had to do due to compatibility reasons.

>>7112312
Uniracer/Unirally was my shit on the SNES

>>7112704
G25/7/9 are all a bit bigger than that.
>Height: 167 mm (6.57 in)
>Width: 428.5 mm (16.87 in)
>Depth: 311 mm (12.24 in)
DFGT I think is even a bit wider since it includes a tiny stick shifter. Also with how convoluted Logitech wheels are with their cables it makes them a bit less portable, or tedious to set up each time.

>>7111357
Sup, nigga

>>7111851
I played a tiny bit of Underground years ago but I don't remember loving it. I got a copy not too long ago though so I'll try it again at some point.
>>7111881
I think I'll give it a shot then. The PS2 version is the one I have.

>>7112594
>entirely plastic
What do you think? G27/29 are entry level wheels. Anything less is chink shit. I won't repeat myself a 3rd time.

>>7112312
Have you played SRB2K? Has similar art style and all the SMK tracks too.

>>7113168
^ This.

IMO, its really not worth buying just for emulation. If you want to get into more "serious"/modern simracing tho, it's worth every penny, and you can be really fast even with these relatively cheap wheels.

>>7113175
No I have not. Just looked it up though... and I will be playing it. Thanks for the info anon. Can't believe they even have linux version!

>>7113161
Do yourself a favor and do a Single Event because the 911 and Viper are unlocked for quick races from the get go, I'd rather have you have that as your first impression than starting out with a Elise and Opel Speedster. Have fun!

>>7113203
It is worth buying for emulation if you're into arcade games. Since those games were made for good quality wheels with strong force feedback. Something you won't get on a cheap wheel.

>>7112592
yeah is hard so naturally all the "gamurz" think its bad because they're talentless shite, i fucking love it desu fantastic game.

Initial D on PSX. Is that any good?

>>7113269
Daytona without force feedback, gears and an adjustable seat is just not Daytona.

>>7113768
don't bother, PS2 version is the only one that matters

>>7114001
Should I even bother with that?

>>7114085
It's the best Initial D game not called Initial D Arcade Stage v2/v3 that's been made to this point imo so yes

IN YOUR BLOOD I WRITE
I AM NOT AFRAID
THIS IS WHO I AM
AND I WILL NEVER BE LIKE YOU
I DO NOT KNEEL
ALL I'M ASKING
IS NOTHING SACRED ANYMORE?

if what you see at the start of a race is the "directly usable race area", what games would you say make you blast through areas the quickest? just wreck my shit
if there's a similar effect in some games for top down, i'll try those too

>>7113203
>>7113168
thank you, there was just one local really cheap was all, ill hold out for the G27/G29

>>7113284
ill give it a shot anon thanks

>>7113768
dont bother, emulate the naomi arcade ones or play the PS2 version
you can also play the non /vr/ arcade games with teknoparrot if you have a decent pc

Do any top down games actually try to have compatibility with a wheel?

>>7114794
Most don't, you can still configure your wheel to work with pretty much any game by emulating analog axis or digital one in those that don't even support that. You won't get any ffb though, but you can use the spring effect that's build-in in your wheel to at least feel some resistance

they say nascar is a joke of going around in simple circles
i'm going to guess that's probably the same case here

just got an oil change and car wash lads
wish it could be as fast as in GT4

>>7114836
I used to watch NASCAR until they completely ruined it by breaking the race into stages, now its a joke.
stages are for rally.

>>7114867
don't forget the batshit retarded playoffs

>>7114836
NASCAR is(was) pretty technical. I don't keep up with it though. Can't be worse than modern F1.

>>7114876
yeah its so dumb.
>>7114914
I watch IndyCar, IMSA, Super GT, Super Taikyu, Super Formula, WEC, Blancpain, WRC, MotoGP, WSBK, stuff like that. basically anything not NASCAR or F1.

tfw want to play some neo drift out but i dont have my arcade stick, it sucks on pad
is thrash rally worth playing ? never tried it

>>7114924
I'm a casual spectator. Last thing I watched was some oldschool 80s/90s Bathhurst - https://youtu.be/YJrj0LLurhA
I like to try and catch Dakar, Isle of Man TT and Le Mans but I always miss them because I don't really have a way to track motorsport. I also like to watch Formula E even though it's shit. It's got a lot of potential and the racing quality can be pretty good sometimes ignoring the gimmicky shit.
What I really need is a google calendar for events.

>>7114956
There's a schedule in this OP: >>>/sp/104011131

>>7114956
>>7114961
yeah check out motor/sp/ort if you want to watch IRL races they'll hook you up

>>7114961
I appreciate it but I have all my shit auto scheduled on google calendar because i'm a scatterbrained retard.

>>7114974
>>7114961
>have a full yearly calendar in the OP
>it's in a google doc
Fucking hell

>>7114981
this lol
its easy Anon

>>7114985
No you misunderstand. I'm saying fucking hell because it's retarded they went through the effort to write down a full years schedule into a google doc when Google Calendars exist. (or any modern calendars).
I've got one set up for Hockey and Fighting games already.
Seems like this conversation was productive anyway, someone already curates one for motorsport. Pic Related.
It's normally best if you can find one official organizations run since it's normally up to date and accurately will account for schedule changes. 2nd best are news outlets. Fan run ones normally die after a year or fall out of accuracy over the course of a season. I'd full recommend it.

>>7115031
I don't know if https://www.motorsport.com/all/schedule/ is useful enough for you.

Where's the calendar in pic related?

>>7115031
oh. well I guess, but you gotta admire their effort/autism to make that list

>i'm going to guess that's probably the same case here
i meant to say any related games could be similarly dumb, so looks more like it now
didn't mean to bring a side that doesn't involve game inputs here

>>7115119
the only NASCAR game I ever played, all I remember about it was that it had a cheat code where you could shoot paintballs out of your car at the other cars to make them spin out and crash. think it was for PlayStation. it was probably one of the EA Sports ones, can't remember the exact name/year.
anyway, for retro stock car racing games I prefer DAYYYEEETOOONAAAAAAAAAAA

>>7115043
https://toomuchracing.com/2020/01/04/2020-race-schedules-for-google-calendar-ical/
Sadly the curator only tracks dates and not times. I personally have any event notify me 15 minutes before it starts. But it still beats having to check a schedule constantly.
Your link seems to just be a normal schedule like the /sp/ one. Maybe you're misunderstanding what google calendar is useful for? if you subscribe to a Google Calendar it means you don't have to do any leg work. It auto syncs to your personal calendar and then notifies you depending on how you've configured your notifications. I don't ever have to look at a schedule or anything. My pc and phone notify me of upcoming stuff without me checking anything
If you do understand that then sorry I'm not trying to be patronizing.

>>7115152
Considering I have never used Google Calendar or any sort of calendar software, I have no idea what you're on about.

if for whatever reason you end up heading to daytona, supposedly the area around there is dangerous if you aren't white
before this year at least, there seems to be history of people who could be wearing maga hats and giving odd looks if they don't see a white person walking around, to the extent that police have to be wary of situations

>>7115169
don't plan on visiting Florida anytime soon but thanks for the tip Anon.

>>7113768
PS2 and PSP are good but not as good as Arcade Stage 3 and 4
>>7114956
What I don't like about Formula E is the tracks, they're way too tight and if you try to go for the inner line you're gonna get smashed to the wall 100%. The whole 'finishing the race with 0.1%' makes for a good cliffhanger though

>>7115164
>subscribe to event schedule
>syncs to your personal calendar
>can notify you a minute, a day, a week before events if you like. Or not at all.
>never have to look up schedules or calendars ever again
It's pretty simple
>>7115349
Yeah I agree, they are all a bit samey as well.

Anybody know how the different tires effect your car in the first TXR on Dreamcast?

>>7115371
It's probably in the manual

>>7115371
the expensive ones grip more ofc, you dont really need them until you start hitting 180mph so if its early game i wouldn't bother

>>7115169
i remember one of the fighting game tournaments were held in that area, could've been combo breaker but a lot of the players/people attending had shit go bad for them lol

>>7114947
its ok... go try the now emulated world rally 2, kinda neo drift out but harder. I find these kinda games fine on any controller, have you played great 1000 miles rally?

Anybody else like Juiced 2?

>>7116837
sure

>>7115769
>world rally 2
never heard of this
>1000 mile rally
i had the rom on my modded xbox a few years ago but never tried it
gonna try them now anon thanks

>>7115769
same... i LOVE great 1000 miles, 1cce4d it a few times but been trying to go for good times... intense game..

whats the scoop on world rally 2? any tips for play?

>>7118776
do it mate bother are fine fine games although i found world rally 2 a bit tricky.

>>7115365
>Yeah I agree, they are all a bit samey as well.
City courses are nice, but usually they just lay down some kind of generic 'straight then hairpin' track and race in a mall park.

>>7116837
S'alright

Somehow came across this, just wanted to share this to set the mood.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1DZKWbBxIk

>>7115137
probably Nascar heat or dirt to daytona

Still unmatched by any other NFS game
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QchyxIwjARg

>>7119658
it must have been Heat then because there were no dirt tracks

>>7106781
I was going to recommend MC3 but console versions are superior, play LA Remix

>>7114947
Is that Martin Sheen?

>>7120825
its so sad that MC2 got pc treatment but 3 didnt, it could really use it to solve those horrid frame rates

i like how in the later stages in neo drift out you have to pay attention the codriver a bit more because you have to drive through the barrels on some sections, on the ice stage theres a fork that looks like its the turn to take but it will make the car spin out

pic semi related, my favorite car photo of all time

>>7121412
what a photo that is

>>7121038
3 runs absolutely fine on Xbox and PCSX2

>>7105456
I played it recently and thought it was kind of boring and annoying at times
Played the original though not whatever remaster/rerelease/whatever came out.

today I have been playing prostreet
thanks for reading my blog

also is 18 wheels of steel /vroom/

>>7122520
anything you drive in is /vroom/, brother
welcome

>>7121038
I also would have liked Los Angeles on PC but alas...

>>7115137
I don't know about paintballs but maybe Nascar Rumble?

What's a comfy ps1 game to fuck around in and drive shitty cars in nice settings

>>7122510
What did you find annoying?

Also I have to play prostreet. Never really gave it a fair shot

>>7123134
>play prostreet
just remember to install the patches that fixes the gamebreaking continue bug

>>7123081
OP pic related could work

>>7107168
I second all of these. Gripshift is really solid, one of the best parts about it is the lighting fast loadtimes, so if you fuck up and fly off of the course (you will do this) you're back at the start in no time.

>>7112594
A DFGT is a great wheel to get if you can score one for $50 to see if you like wheels. A lot of people think they want a wheel, then they spend $300 on one and use it for a week and then it gets reboxed and sits in their closet forevermore.

Realtalk though, a G29 is probably the best wheel on the market in terms of price/performance though.

>>7108380
that's funny because it's totally the same game
i guess not much good racing on dc
>>7109227
still not that difficult game, rally sims are distinct from circuit sims in that cars are so much easier to control. it's perfectly playable on a keyboard while for circuit sims wheel or mouse is a must have.
>>7106202
damn posts like this make this board look bad

Is this worth playing if I started with 3? Also how is Revenge?

>>7109606
fun fact: most ps1 racing games support wheels, thanks to negcon standard. on later generations only hardcore sims do, regardless of platform. you can't shoehorn a wheel to any racing game because it would feel awful without full-range steering.

>>7122409
the latter has a lot of input lag and i dont have the pc to run it and xbox? dont have one, i'll check it out on youtube though cus framerate in ps2 is ass.

>>7121412
after a whilst you just memorise everything on cues anyway, havent played in a whilst but my best time for 1cc was 7.15 which is not bad, i think wr is like 7.08

>>7123081
define fucking around
runabout series (!), driver series, destruction derby raw, the italian job?

>>7123417
Ah lol, that doesn't sound like a good time. Thanks for the tip

>>7123557
>the latter has a lot of input lag
no it doesn't, i completed mc3 on it

>>7123548
burnout 2 very good game the better out of the first two. If you liked takedown you'll like revenge.

>a racing game where the main attractions are the non-racing modes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJINBJryOV8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15AL7EXROYo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gl6xwF_0Yjo
How did they do it?

>>7123580
>a racing game where the main attractions are the non-racing modes
burnouts 1 and 2 for me
later ones fucked up the crash mode
>>7123548

>>7123591
also whatever the proper name for this mode that trackmania calls platform in grip 2

>>7123591
>later ones fucked up the crash mode
Wait, for real? I thought 3 was famous for having the best crash mode? Unless I'm mistaken.

>>7123601
i mean rollcage 2 of course

>>7123602
dunno, 3 feels too artificial to me, and too much control of a flying car, it doesn't look like a car crash anymore

>>7123569
mate good for you but pcsx2 has a lot of input lag, just cus you dont notice it doesnt mean it isnt there, it was around 7 frames.

>>7123591
2 is peak, great time attack gfame

>>7123608
In 3, nothing feel like a car. The following episodes are even worse about that.

>>7123609
it is good for me cause I'm not shitting my pants over something i would never notice if i wasn't searching for it. configure the audio plugin or get an xbox if you're so picky

>>7123609
like that matters in a racing game

>>7123643
you've obviously never played anythng at a good level, its not AS important but it still is important unless you're just casually playing through, try playing wipoeut3 foe example with lag, its impossible to get any good times.

>>7123640
Yeah not everyones sensitive or bothered by it but im just pointing out the facts, you claim pcsx2 doesnt have input lag but it does.

>>7123557
still cant 1cc it yet, once i get to the ice stage i have to use a coin or two, and still need to beat the great britain stage
having a lot of fun though

>>7115169
I used to live in one of those areas when I was working in Daytona.

I had no issues, though (it was kinda quiet).

>>7115402
CEO.

hey drift out anon, are you braking or just lifting off?
what are the general tips to neo drift out

>>7123567
nah it's a perfectly easy fix which just eliminates a potential softlock you may encounter in the game. otherwise it's still a perfectly playable game, even with today's standards

>>7124000
commit fully to the drift at the start and carry it all the way through

Now, where has it been?
I mean the good old wild days
Became a bit too lame

>>7109149
Colin McRae Rally 2

The PC version is easier to get running than CMR1
Pace notes are much simpler (and thus less overwhelming) than CMR3/4/5

Mobil 1 Rally Championship is easy to play but the stages are very long (15-20 minutes) which might demotivate you from finishing

>>7121412

who /topcop/ in 2 laps?

Anyone want to play SRB2Kart? I can teach newbies in empty servers handling and strats, though it's better to learn with Time Trials first.

>>7123081
Driver, depending on your tolerance for view distances and the colour grey

>>7123534
>damn posts like this make this board look bad
and being a passive aggressive bitch doesn't?

>>7124010
While braking? Or Takumi style? He asked you anon.

>>7113819
Playing the emulated rom made me better at the real arcade cabinet, i'm not even joking.

>>7124273
is that a diablo?
i remember seeing thed ad for hot pursuit in pc gamer when i was a kid and thought it was the coolest shit
it was a diablo police car split down the middle with a regular diablo
i cant find the image on google

>>7104905
What? A "Vroom"-Thread and nobody mentioned the game Vroom yet?

>>7124851
Atari ST? Edge Lords.

>>7124918
nice

>>7125460
You're welcome.

>>7125480
Those "rally" stages in GT2 were always so odd

Tahiti Maze 4 lyf

>>7125483
>odd
In what way?

>>7125490
well they were a new thing coming off GT

i love prostreet, don't know why i avoided it for so long, best NFS game imo although i do hate those events where you're forced to use their cars rather than your perfectly tuned murdermachines
my copy has some kind of bug that gives me the collector's edition cars every time i start the game, which i'm not complaining about since it's free money
no other NFS has managed to be as white-knuckle as the speed challenges, i miss drag racing too

Best nascar game.

this is a typical opening gambit so you're on the right track. Next up add in the correct paths, basically take every short cut in every stage BAR stage 2 where you ignore them.

yeah i've already got almost 10 seconds off that, ive just been savescumming to practise on the last two stages where im having trouble

>>7127123
stage 5 is defo the big one, so you wanna take the first short cut then a right and then u want to hit the brake before that arsehole jump so u can take the next corner without hitting wall, wr uses same strat.

Lotus esprit turbo challenge on an Amiga 500 is very good retro multiplayer car racing. The simultaneous split screen allowing two cars to race against each other was the talk of the gaming community decades ago. There was also a Jaguar car game as well which was quite exotic.

Good morning, how are you today?

>>7133271
It is barely by a stroke winnable but not by much. Look at that, 3:11 we're coming in at. My gut feeling was right, some cars handle better so they always catch up. The Lotus is a lot of fun but it is a bath tub. Wouldn't stand a chance against these cars. That's why it was racing against a Mini. I was the Alfa on this grid, can't get into first place by the first bend. Predictable story, Duncan.

Fiat Coupe was a good choice.

I don't see what was "cunty" about it at all. I was just concerned that those posters had driven (ironic) everyone else away. As I said, I wasn't trying to piss on anyone's fire.

>console racing game. I have to shift down a gear to get up the hill.

So caring about the general is somehow "concern for myself and no one else"? Wow, sorry for actually giving a fuck. Didn't realise people were so sensitive here now. Maybe I should do exactly as you suggest and not contribute any longer.

>>7133791
>didnt realise people were sensitive!
>gets emotional

The fact you even brought it up when no one else cared says it all. You only give a fuck about you no one else, stop lying. Now either let it go and carry on or get involved, you are free to do as you please.

>>7133876
>The fact you even brought it up when no one else cared says it all.
I genuinely thought people were being put off by it considering it was just a string of posts with almost no contributions from anyone else. If I've misinterpreted what was happening then fair enough.

>You only give a fuck about you no one else, stop lying.
Not lying whatsoever, that was my actual reason.

>Now either let it go and carry on or get involved, you are free to do as you please.
Don't worry, it's done.

theres some trick u gotta learn to be competitive in daytona, it involves the manual gears and changing from 4th to 2nd or 1st? in a certain way that stops you losing any speed. can't recall the deets you'll have to have a poke around

>but for the love of god cant figure out where the WR is getting the extra second over me


same, i almost broke 10 secs on the trial stage though so thats pretty damn close but yeah his times are mental, im thinking of switching to stick because i can see why that tapping control is important and harder with a pad.

how the FUCK is Neo Drift Out so underrated?

>>7141364
because people always miss the depth, you have the "wahhhh arcades are coin eaters" group so they dont even try and you have the other side who see its top down and think "lol retro" and it's an easy 1cc so people think thats it job done, but time attacking it is a whole new level that really shows you how well made it is.

Great 1000 miles is mega underated to but to be fair that game fucked up in not having a total time at the end, only stage times....

>>7141681

fuckkkkk
at least i know now

i think its because the fighters on neo geo overshadow a lot of the rest of the system, as well as the majority of 2d racing games sucking

on that note, i just remembered how fun the GT advance games are , i really enjoy the drifting mechanics in it

>>7141905

>no love for snow from OG trackmania

>>7141364
It's a 2D racing game released exclusively for arcades in the west and for NEO GEO CD in Japan AHAAHAH in 1996.

Imagine you are a little boy in 1997.
Your momma gave you a few dollars to play Street Fighter with you friends and after intense rounds of how-you-do-kens and sure-you-cans you are left with a single quarter, so you decide to try a racing game.
The arcade has Ridge Racer, that cool PS1 game everyone was talking about a few years ago; Daytona USA, a cool not-NASCAR game with neat drifts and funny Engrish man singing about nonsense; SCUD Race, a game with fucking Porsches and Ferraris and graphics that blow your mind and finally...something that kinda looks like Micro Machines but with rally cars.

Honestly, what would you pick?

>have stressful day at work
>come home
>put some relaxing ambient trance on in background
>play NFS porsche
I am reaching levels of comfy enabled by the game I thought only existed in books or ancient monasteries.

>>7142732

>>7142868
tell me more about this game, is it challenging?

>>7142959
>is it challenging?
Eh not really but none of the old school NFS are actually that hard besides the original. It is the interesting tracks and exotic cars with that petrolhead vibe underpinning them that makes the games good.

i have little interest in any ea games with porsche in them because due to a deal for like 17 years other devs couldn't use porsche and had to find alternatives

all these nu-retro 2D racing games over-do the drifting. actual retro games didn't have that much sideways action

Lotus 3 looks alright and so does Double Axle and Super Hang On, but isn't there anything with great backgrounds and more environment sprites? The locations really set the mood in these games.

>>7108208

I like it a lot - just make sure to set steering speed to low and emulate the dreamcast version. The standard steering speed is waaaaay too sensitive for the physics model.

I always think back that Driving Emotion and Enthusia are kind of ass, but R:Racing I don't feel that it sucks. Makes me want to give it another shot. Gran Turismo really did ruin racing games.

>>7147857
Gran Turismo (we are talking about 4 obviously) is very bland and boring, there is very little sense of speed, audio is poor, it's not very fun to play. Half the time I can't wait for the race to end just to see what car I won or to see that % number go up. It's grind and it's quite understated. Actual driving is so much more fun in GT1 and GT2, there is more sense of grip and acceleration, cars have more weight to them.
GT4 has that sense of progression, presentation, very, very polished feel and music, actual driving is of tertiary importance at best.
