Whatever happened to the Racing genre?

[DirtyP2002]

I think that the Racing genre is in Forzas hands now. Horizon (Arcade) and Motorsports (sim) are kings in their genres. Then there is Mario Kart as THE leader for Kart games.

There were some releases like Split second, Blur, TDU or Pure (which was really fun), but they did not appeal to the masses at all.
