Great question and here's my fitting answer: my fave old sim was (is, since I still have the system somewhere in the house) Metropolis on the Dreamcast. Not only did it offer some fun racing with decent physics and graphics, it was the predecessor to my other fave sim: Project Gotham Racing. Micro$oft saw the value in Metropolis, bought it and it became the PGR series, by far the most fun simcade ever. Anyone here familiar with this old classic on the DC? I really need to fire it up sometime. The biggest downside of completing the career was the inability to finish the night events, as the lighting in the old DC was so dark, you literally couldn't see where you were going. Then PGR 3 and 4 came out and the rest is history. PGR and Metropolis is the reason why I shall never give up on the DC and the Xbox 360 (and two of the Microsoft force feedback racing wheel)

Race Driver: GRID (2008) I used to lover all the car options in that game and I would do lap after lap at LeMans in the Audi R10. It had a great selection of GT and open prototypes. Also some real world tracks. They could not use the names but you could easily tell by the maps. And another is Test Drive LeMans. (1999) It had a great selection of cars from that time period and you could race the whole 24 hour race with day to night shifts as well as when you pitted you could save your progress when you were. I remember it took me a month to do the whole 24 hour race. If I recall I did an hour each night.

GRID has always held a place in my heart. Fun simcade, vibrant enough to be tons of fun, sim enough to make you drive instead of just flooring it. BIG FUN! Good way to decompress still today.

34:37 just to clarify, the P1 class in AMS2 is similar to the FIA LMP2 class. That's the Sigma and MetalMoro from P1 gen. 2.

Thanks for correcting our info!

I totally agree with Serta regarding LMU. I was thinking on buying but since I don't know how much it's gonna cost me in the long run I prefer to wait.

We hopefully will know soon...

Would rather buy a stable 1.0 release at a higher price, at least it wont be the crap it is right now full of promises and nothing but dlc.

My favorite over 12 years-old racing sim is Race-On which is the sequel/expansion of Race 07. It was released in 2009. It's the last Simbin game that you can install offline without Steam. The sim has lots of car classes like AMS1. I made my own racing series and car liveries. The car handling is more responsive and more fluid to drive than AMS or Rfactor. Reiza's Renato Simioni made the car physics for Race-On. The physics are similar to GTR1 where it's really good when your driving at the limit of the car and you can catch a slide. But if you get too greedy your race will end really quick. It's not as forgiving as GTR2 or AMS. Racing sims like Race-On, GTR1 and Richard Burns Rally you need 110% concentration to have a good race. As soon as you start thinking about food for dinner it's Over.

I think that's the one that slipped away, so to speak... I think I read about it but never came around to drive it myself. /sf

@@WromWrom Race-On is a very good sim. At it's core it's a WTCC touring car simulator but you can add the cars from GTR1, GTR2 and GT legends via mods. It better than buying those games separately because those mods have working windscreen wipers and Race-On has very good rain effects. I like old racing sims because you can edit things quite easily by going into the game files and change the physics of a car for example. The problem with today's sims is that the developers make it really hard or impossible to change the sim in the same way. You have to wait for a game update and hope for the best. You and Cody were talking about the 2024 WEC update for Le Mans Ultimate. There is a mod for AMS1 that already has the 2023 & 2024 cars. I drove the 2024 Lamborghini Hypercar months ago and it was free. I don't know why anyone would buy any other current day car racing sim other than AMS 2. Because you're not getting anything exclusive that you can't get somewhere else. It's not like we are in the year 2002 when the last official Le Mans 24 Hours game came out on PC. We didn't have a choice for 24 hour endurance racing back then. To be fair, that Le Mans 24 Hours game is really good. I have the PC and Dreamcast versions on my shelf. The PC version has 70 cars and 12 tracks on the disc. No DLC you unlock cars and tracks as you play.

@@avflashback8913 Well, I understand it when official sim get the official information from the manufacturers. But mods have been getting very good. SOme are even official mods by manufacturers... 🙂

LMU: I am lucky the game works spotless for me, and think is the best sim out there now, so happy to pay for content that is the only flop. But lots of people has issues with it cause is early access so realease paid content and say is early access to cover their back if any issues happens, is kind of scam. AMS2: my go to sim when no racing GT3/Gt4/GTE or lmp's. AC is the king but in single player there is no AI to really race against and online is all about Mazda and the other cars that I preffer to race in ACC or LMU. AMS2 has the variety, graphics, fun and easy access with mods....really good game and always trying to improve so a game and developers to be proud of.

They are. And for good reason.
