Y'all, don't get me wrong, okay? Modern racing games are fun.
But I'd STILL take games like Burnout 3 Takedown or Daytona USA over them any day.
I think we already hit peak in the racing genre years ago! 😉

NFS Underground 1 and 2
NFS Most Wanted (2005)
There where some others but I keep going back to these every couple years lol
I honestly can't tell any of the current racing games apart, they all just look the same. No particular style to them...
I think I had to purposely destroy my car to end a mission once cause I was that focused on it haha
Road Rash (PC)
Test Drive Off Road (PC)
Midnight Club 2 (PS2)
That's it. That's the list.
Modern sports games are so boring in comparison.
I've tried a few times to get into the WWE 2K series, and I can't get into them. I just don't find them fun. They seem more interested in selling you the DLC.
What a bummer.
I feel bad for the kids whose only sports options these days are Madden, NBA2K, and not-FIFA. They have no idea what was lost in this overly monetized era of annualized sports game slop.
Burnout is still so good and fun.
Or hell, even a spaceship racing game! 🤔
It's not one I play a lot so I can't claim a lot of knowledge, but I love arcade-y shit, despite my... Absolute obsession with GT3 back in the day lol
PS2 Racing games were peak
San Francisco Rush. If not just for the crazy jumps, but for the dude who wants to know your name when you enter a high score table.
