Wow such a bad list.

I would have liked to see something like Pole Position make the list; every good list needs a classic.

wow no forza, or gran turismo = fail list. Joke thread???

I'd like to know why Forza and GT should be on the list. Racing games are about racing, not a big selection of cars.

Because Gran Turismo is one of the most consistently, critically acclaimed franchises of all time, let alone just the racing genre. The main series runs 96, 92, 95, 89 on Metacritic.

Intentionally obtuse list from OP. Disappointed.



GT deserves to be in the list because it started the entire racing sim genre.
You were able to tweak every part of the car, from the transmission settings to car height and tire durability. It carried a ton of cars, had real tracks, great graphics and different modes to play in.

It at least deserves to be there instead of RR, because it is better in every way.

I hate it when you purposely don't including the obvious number one games/franchises just to get post!

Even if it's a joke thread

That's what I thought when I looked at it and didn't see Rock and Roll racing.

I agree SONIC RUSH is a great Racer!!!!



wtf ...Mario Kart not the number one racing franchise ?!!! You changed Rol you changed ....you use to be cool. Oh wait nvm.



Rol. You don't like sims. They are an undeniable part of the racing genre. You can't make a fair list.



Big Rigs is suspiciously absent from this list.
