one of the problems with video games is you dont get a sense of speed. The gt games as cool as they are suck in the physics dept. all the gt fan boys will bas then but its true. for console i think forza 2 simulates it the best.

Real driving has ruined video game driving for me. Without real feedback, I just get frustrated at driving games.

If he has all traction devices turned off and has a rear wheel drive car, you'll be sideways the second your on the accelerator going through the turn.

I agree, I really miss the dualshock vibration when you hit the rub strips or make contact with other cars.
