Hey all...just thought this might be an interesting thread on RS's nerd forum ;)

My absolute favourite is Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition...hate the loading times, but aside from that, it's insane how much you can mod your cars, love the 3 city setup and the way you play through the game.

My close second is Midnight Club: LA Remix. Way faster load times are awesome, just wish there were more cars/more body mods available. Also, being limited to one city for most of the game gets a little boring and I'm not a HUGE fan of the way the game is structured (vs. MC3 DE). Still, amazing game and a ton of fun.

#3: NFS Carbon...fun game, loads fast, some cool concepts for wingmen, etc...but a LOT less realistic than MC. I like that you can customize cars, but not even close to the degree of MC.

#4: NFS Most Wanted...just bought it, haven't played it yet lol

Your turn.

when i had a psp, i liked playing initial d.

[albert116]

sold my PSP ages ago.

But when i had it, i had fun playing ridge racer. Don't remember too much about it thogh, as it's been way too long since i played it. But i recall that game had a great sense of speed, very exciting

Is the Initial D game a Japanese-only release?

is Ridge Racer realistic? real cars? can you customize the cars?

[Raid3n]

as far as i know ID is japanese only.. at least i haven't come across any english ones. the one i have is in japanese.

[underscore]

Ridge Racer has imaginary cars, no customizing but its a shitload of fun, madddd drifting around corners.

I love the Burnout series

I love the Burnout series

cool...how come?

I'm REALLY not enjoying NFS after playing MC and want something new...

Ridge Racer is a treat for the eyes and the ears, and the arcade-style drifting is very easy to learn, but hard to master.

Wipeout Pure, and its sequel Wipeout Pulse, are both solid futuristic racing games but I take it you're not too keen on that genre. Wipeout Pulse has a very deep campaign mode.

The Burnout series is awesome, if only because of the fact that no greater joy comes from eliminating your opponents by crashing them into oncoming traffic/pillars/walls/whatever's on the road. Once again very arcadey controls.

I just bought Test Drive (Unlimited? I think...the one that's in Hawaii)...it's okay...very Need For Speed-esque...kinda fun, but nothing like Midnight Club.

initial d is only available in japanese. it's pretty easy to navigate through the menu even if you don't know japanese

^I think I had an english version of Initial D..... from HK? lol.. but i spent so much time on that its not even funny... i wish u could play online initial D.. that would be pwnage haha

[twitchyzero]

i'm surprised Gran Turismo never got ported to the PSP.

[sas]

Due to the lack of racing games on the PSP, I am considering modding my PSP to play Gran turismo 2 (the best in the series IMO).

Can anyone comment on the quality of PS emulators and especially if anyone is running GT on their psp

Initial D was the only game I played on the PSP- alright but I prefer realistic Sims

[B4N M3]

hmm....I'd be interested in that too...

I bought Ridge Racer a couple of days ago and while it is fun...it's no Midnight Club or Gran Turismo...

[sas]

Ok, well worth it. Gran Turismo 2 runs flawlessly. Screw initial D, ridge racer, club etc..

Driving my mugen dc2 again

You're using PSX right? Do you need emulators for that?

[underscore]

and how bad are the load times?

[sas]

Load times are minimal, and well worth it. C'mon guys, need I remind you how great the catalogue was for the PS1?

Gran Turismo > Any PSP racing game out there.

FF7, FF8, MGS, GT, GT2, etc..

*only downside, are most PS roms are around 1 gig for the above games.*
