This is the final part of our four part Racing Sim Super Review, today we’re going to go over one of the most intriguing racing sims to hit the market in recent years, iRacing. The simulation differs from the others we’ve reviewed because the simulation encompasses not just the cars, tracks and physics, but also the experience of real club racing through a persistent online scoring system.

Racing Sim Super Review, Part 3 – Live for Speed
Friday, July 31st, 2009
Time for part three in the four part Racing Sim Super Review. Tonight we’re going to look at a very popular sim, Live for Speed. Live for Speed has been in development since 2003 and put a very heavy emphases on physics from the very beginning. While it isn’t as customizable as the last two titles we’ve looked at, it does have a very nice physics engine and does a fantastic job of balancing fun and simulation.

Racing Sim Super Review, Part 2 – rFactor
Monday, July 27th, 2009
This is part two of four in ComputerSUKI’s Racing Sim Super Review. Today we’re going to take a look at the most flexible of simulators, rFactor. Released in late 2005 this simulator has enjoyed a pretty large user base and is loved for it’s ability to accept a large number of user generated modifications and plugins. It’s also an interesting entry because it shares the same base simulation engine as SimBin’s titles, gMotor2, which was developed by Image Space Incorporated.

GameTap was launched in 2005 and has been gaining subscribers at a pretty good rate. I’ve been a subscriber to the service for the better part of the last two years and have been very pleased with it.
So what does a GameTap subscription get you? Well, it depends on which level of service you subscribe to. Premium subscribers will get the best deal out of the lot with access to over 1,000 unique games ranging from popular titles like Supreme Commander and Grid down to a number of simple card and puzzle games. In between you’ll find a ton of great titles across a number of genres which includes many indie titles unique to GameTap. Among these games you’ll find Telltale’s new Sam & Max series of adventure games as well as American McGee’s new Grimm series of short fairytale action games.
