Hate to tell you this, racing cars have only 240 degrees of movement. BTCC, F1, WRC. No clutch either. How bout you use a reviewer who knows about racing. :)

 

 

Now the point is that in most racing games you don't just race with racing cars. Most of them include tons of production cars.

GT series have 3/4 of cars are production cars.

 

Thats ok, it's 1 game. The pure simulation games such as GTR 2 and Race Pro are racing cars. As will be the case with F1 2010. There is a reason why Forza and GT have never won a single award for realism.

You also have simulations with older cars, both production and racing ones, where clutch and H shift can add realism to the simulation, when you drive modern racing cars, you just have to use the paddles and forget the clutch.

 

Thanks for pointing that out I couldn't be bothered earlier in the thread.  Selnor conveniently forgets GTLegends for example, a sim also by Simbin as the two he mentioned, as well of mods like for example Power and Glory for GTR. 

It's very simple, having clutch and H shifter is better than not having it.  It gives you the option to to use it for the games/sims that can use it, it makes the sim more realistic, and that's the whole point of a sim.

Btw, my apologies to Squilliam for hijacking the thread. :)
