A new study conducted by a company closely linked to the auto industry, Continental Tires, has revealed that those drivers who are also video game players have a higher risk of driving recklessly, with the effects running from a bigger chance of being pulled over by police to an increased chance of not stopping at a red light.
If you were hoping to attend the final preliminary live event in the 2024 Gran Turismo World Series and hadn't yet picked up some tickets, your time has run out.
A special free Gran Turismo demo is set for launch later this year, as Sony gears up to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the PlayStation console.
The demo, going by the name of "My First Gran Turismo", will appear towards the end of the year in an unspecified "holiday" window and be free for all.
Which may explain why you don’t know what you are talking about. GT7 as a massive solo content on part or even better vs old titles, B-spec aside.
The is a ton of car, tracks, challenges, permit, races to deal with without spending a single second playing online.
Unless if you speak about a game that does not require internet connection at all, it that case i,would advise you stick to retrogaming once and for all.
It's been three decades since 'Need for Speed' dropped. Here's why the 1994 version of the game is still awesome and why it changed everything.
"nobody ever really learned how to drive from a racing game."
Jann Mardenborough exists, my guy.
Yeah. Besides that ridiculous statement in the article, I really didn't like the first game at all. Cars controlled like bricks. It was only until N4S 2 was when it started to feel better. N4S 3 was when I really got into the series. Hot Pursuit was the shit for home console racing. I mean, it's on my phone like right now with Duck Station and ePSXe depending on which emulator I want to use. The disc is in a drawer and the PS1 in the closet but I had to reminisce every now and then on how fun it still is.
But then it turned into the Fast and the Furious nonsense of EA copying whatever was popular at the time including the music. Also by then, I was boycotting this shitty company for their industry practices of destroying developers and buying up licenses. I mean look, Criterion was purchased to kill competition, acquire the Renderware Engine and gain the Burnout series, then tasked what's left of Criterion into making N4S. Pure bullshit move.
But I did enjoy the series and EA before they turned evil and greedy.
I was literally about to say this. And GT taught me how to drive literally when Gran Turismo came out, being able to drive my GTR to the movie premier was a whole life 360 moment. Damn near cried, shit was unreal.
If I remember right I started with NFS: Pink Slip, but my favorite was NFS: Hot Pursuit2 on PS2. My friend and I would race for hours, the sound track was banging with Uncle Cracker song Fever For The Flavor.
NFS: HP2 was great. Although I had an Xbox and remember feeling distinctly disappointed once I realised the PS2 store demo of it was a totally different game to the game I had purchased for Xbox.
Yea my co worker had an Xbox and a copy of the game, but racing him was different as the courses looked way better on the Xbox than PS2. Seemed like about three races were different since the Xbox was more powerful so sectioned off parts of some tracks were fully raceable breaking through stone walls to access short cuts.
For me, it was the very 1st "Road & Track Presents: The Need For Speed that got me hooked into semi-realistic racing game! Before that, most of the racing games were all very, well, game-ly, like F-Zero, Outrun, Daytona Racing, etc. The R&T Need for speed was one of the 1st game that tried to use real car spec for a more realistic (relatively speaking) driving experience. I also raced with a friend online, using 56K modem!!!
I did not like the early Need for Speed games at all. The series got me at Underground and I have been a fan since. Unfortunately EA sucks major eggs when it comes to consistent quality.
Carbon, Underground 1 and 2, Most Wanted and Heat are among my top racing games ever.
The Run, Payback, Undercover, Unbound and 2015 were all hot garbage to me.
