I'm much closer to spending money on an Oculus 2 than a console.

For me it is the HP Reverb G2 that is calling.

A real acting legend.

How about the opening few laps in Portugal? The onboard from Kimi's car was unreal, like he was playing with AI set way too low on a racing sim. Seeing Sainz zip past both Mercedes to take the lead, also unreal. Once the harder tires worked into their operating window the inevitable happened, but s...

And it's not bad.

Sounds like one hell of an endorsement.

Nick Saban (and the AD) catches the COVID. Hope the best for him, but man what unfortunate timing ahead of this weekend's big game with Georgia.

I enjoyed some time with ACC on PC during a free weekend and now you guys have me wanting to play it some more. I'm desperately slow in sports cars on iRacing so this might be what I need to scratch that itch, hopefully it hits a Steam sale again soon. Just wish it looked better in VR on the PC. Fa...

All this talk had me download THPS2 for the Dreamcast and fire it up in redream (great Dreamcast emulator). Have the disc but figured I would save my DC GDROM life. Need to upgrade to the premium version of redream for a whopping $5 So I can play in HD. Was a fun and nostalgic Labor Day.

Saw some chatter about how much data download is needed at full graphics setting. Someone estimated that merely flying CA, NV, and AZ would require some 4tb of data download,, Yes the game looks gorgeous, but if playing means using so much bandwidth, it could be a killer for me. Broadband sucks a bi...

Actually drug my Xbox out yesterday to play some NFL2K5 and after pulled the PGR2 disc. That giant Xbox controller was a throwback. Games I want a reboot of? TOCA, but a new BTCC game is supposed to co e out in the next2 years. I would love a reboot of Giant Gram, a great Japanese wrestling game on ...

Waiting for VR implementation. Playing Xplane 11 and DCS in VR just spoils you.

No wonder Florida is a COVID inferno. South Florida is. My county is 250k population with 3.5k cases. Hopefully those numbers stay low That's low? Maybe by a Ron De Santis definition. My county has 450K people, with 3.6K cases. Almost double the pop, with about same number of cases. Stay healthy, m...

For those with the PC version of Assetto Corsa, I can't stress enough how good the free Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo car is. This is a special release from Ferrari to support an upcoming esports series. You have to register at https://www.ferrari.com/en-US/esports/ferrari-esports-series to get the car....

I'll be shocked if this discussion doesn't devolve into politics, which is banned here. It's impossible for Americans to rationally discuss COVID-19 based on facts. Instead we all run for our respective tribes, just like with everything else. No politics, just facts: 1) Over 70 year old aunt in Mic...

Nothing like 4 dozen GT3 cars in close racing at Imola.

Had a chance to try Automobilista 2. First the good news, for a 1.00 release this sim has been seriously optimized. I can run 23 cars on HIGH settings and the game doesn't skip a beat, it runs smooth. I can't say the same for Nascar Heat which uses Unity whereas AM2 runs on the Project Cars engine....

Hope everyone is doing well, staying safe and sane. Was reading the news this morning mand saw this which struck me as Tokyo Xtreme Racer (one of my favorite Dreamcast games), Covid Edition - http://www.asahi.com/ajw/articles/13337246 Deserted Tokyo freeway now an open road for ‘Roulette Gang’ The "...

No VR? Graphics take a dive in resolution, but the immersion factor is unreal. I can't do a serious sim in 2D anymore.

Also, the handling is slippery until you warm the tires up. Definitely. Good point. This game simulates cold tires better than any other I've played on a console. Glad my settings worked on the PS4! Wait until Assetto Corsa Competzione gets released forc onsoles. It and AMS ho me have the best tire...

Well, I think I'll pass on AM2. It must be an April fools joke, $30 for the base game and $100 for the Season Pass which covers 2020-21. Seriously Reiza Studios. :roll: While the pass is out of whack, $30 is a steal, There are 2 dozen plus tracks, cars you don't find elsewhere, and a nice driving m...

Automobilista 2 officially available as early release on Steam, I have had the various betas for the last month. It started out darn good and progress for the better from there. If you liked the original AMS, don't hesitate to get the sequel.

RaceRoom Racing Experience all content Free for the next few days! A very good sim with over 40+ real tracks and 150+ cars from touring to open wheel, classics to modern, with some tracks that you will not find in other sims. Pretty cool for them to do this. http://game.raceroom.com/ https://store....

Max Verstappen for the win!

In the preliminary e-sports race, at least.

Actually pretty cool - a pretty good number of professionals took part this morning.

The only issues I have had with the Rift have been in Assetto Corsa until I fixed the view to the horizon, the Space station simulator (major vertigo in some places), and alien Isolation which made me nauseous. I can play for several hours with no issues on other games. My time has been limited late...

Automobilista 2 early release beta tomorrow - February 28th Tomorrow is the early release beta for the Reiza backers of Automobilista 2 and I can't wait! The love and attention to detail this small development team gives to their products is quite impressive and considering the magic they performed...

First bit of advice: Buy gently used. New cars are one of the worst investments you can make. The value of a new car drops 20 percent the second you drive it off the lot unless it's a highly coveted, limited-production brand, such as Porsche. You're much smarter to buy a lightly used car -- 2 years...
