I’ve never played a racing game like RiMS Racing, and its core unique mechanic is both the thing that makes the game stand out, and is also the thing that sometimes make the game tedious to progress through. RiMS Racing is the newest motorcycle racing sim from French publisher Nacon and first-time developer RaceWard, from Italy. The core concept of the game is that it’s part racing sim, part mechanic sim. Instead of earning more advanced bikes during the game,…

Starting from pole position in the opening race of the season, I’ve got high hopes for the ensuing 29 laps around Bahrain’s circuit. Five red lights and away we go!    I get wheelspin off the line and am instantly surrounded by Mercedes; sandwiched through a turn, I clip my nose on Lewis Hamilton’s tire, damaging the front end and sending the defending champion down the field. Max Verstappen takes the opportunity to jump into the lead. Instead of pitting…

We still have a few weeks to go but I figured, hey, why not start my crazy E3 predictions!? Today I’ll throw out some never-will-this-happen Nintendo E3 predictions, next week will be Sony, and right before E3 I’ll talk about Microsoft and third parties. Let’s a goooooo! Nintendo has not officially announced their E3 plans yet (unless they do and I have to rewrite this). So I am going to guess their plans… On the Thursday or Friday before E3…

Today we look into the experience of Dirt 5 on Stadia, the latest installment in one of the most successful rally car racing franchises of all time.

When the news first broke that Codemasters — legendary racing game developers and publishers — were potentially getting purchased by Take Two, I was worried about what it could mean for the flagship F1 gaming series. Would the supposed F1 2K series go the Virtual Currency-soaked way of NBA 2K, or would it deteriorate like the WWE 2K series has?   To say my hopes were low would be an understatement. And then Electronic Arts swooped in and dropped far…

I’m not sure there’s a more intense single-player racing experience than coming to the end of a long rally stage as the rain starts to spit. The time pops up at the checkpoint and you’re either a second ahead or behind the pace heading into the last stretch. Every time it happens in WRC 9 on Series X, I shift forward in my seat and try my darndest to hit each apex without careening off an edge and down a…

In the console sim racing game world of Forza, Gran Turismo, Project Cars (well, the first two entries) and F1, the Assetto Corsa series can seem slightly inaccessible and less fully featured. I largely have ignored the series, assuming that I just wasn’t hardcore enough to get into it. Thankfully, at least with Assetto Corsa Competizione, I was wrong. The game was released on PC in 2019 and came to consoles this summer, touting its standing as the official game…
