Nascar Heat 5 is free to play this weekend on Xbox live.
It finally hit the perfect price point to make it worth playing.

Re: Madden 21

You're not the same MizzouRah who has the slider set over at OperationSports, are you? Not sure if that's a common nickname or not. I've been using that slider set recently and have had some pretty amazing games on the series X version. **Edit** Considering it's the same username and the same city/s...

Re: MS Flight Simulator

They're extremely clunky to use, which is why they've never taken off. You are turning your head, changing the view on your center monitor, yet keeping your eyes locked into the center. And back when I used them, you had to use a hat with a little reflector on the bill, too. Made the whole thing wei...

Make sure to turn cascading shadows down to Medium. It about doubles the framerate.

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

No impressions from me, PK, but I've been looking for some over the last few days. I'm not convinced half the folk uploading videos of the game know which one's their arse and which one's their elbow, but I thought Billy Strange did a nice job with his review: https://youtu.be/cfdQEW0TsSo Bought it...

Re: Madden 21

Not surprisingly, I feel quite differently about this year's version. I didn't read any impressions anywhere or watch any gameplay before it released. The biggest changes this year completely change the game for me (DL pass rush moves and penalties). I am actually having a blast playing defense, jus...

For sure. Been excited for this one for a while. May not play it until Friday night, but I will probably cave and try it out on Thursday when it unlocks.

Re: The Last of Us 2

Finished it up yesterday. I could definitely see why guys lost their minds and posted such bad reviews, but what I imagine to be their big problem didn't bother me as much. At first I was a little "wtf?", but I got over it pretty quickly. Naughty Dog told the story they wanted to tell. I'm not going...

Don't know, I've never needed to do that. But I guess you could just save the profiles in Fanalab and load them as necessary.

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

Not unless it's a new game. I literally have one profile I use for all cars in iRacing, and I just adjust strength in-sim based on whether it's dirt, oval, road, or a car strength difference. Then save controls for that car and it's like that moving forward. In other sims, sometimes I have multiple ...

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

After reading your post I decided to go with the trial version once more. I'm glad I did... there's not a lot you can do with the force feedback and steering wheel response. Even though what it defaults to is closer to a good setting for my tastes than I would have imagined, not being able to get t...

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

Same with the sim gear eyeballing! This is my home now: No VR? Graphics take a dive in resolution, but the immersion factor is unreal. I can't do a serious sim in 2D anymore. I've got an Oculus Rift, and an Oculus Rift S. The clarity is the biggest drawback--as is comfort over long sessions. Barely...

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

Can't dispute that at all. The console should be treated as such, and the default native controller as the primary development method. Anything else should be secondary.

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

There's been a simracing exposure explosion in the past week. It's all over the news in simracing circles. Pretty unprecedented level of exposure across all disciplines.
