Project Cars is the best game out there for anyone who wants to get into sim racing. It is the perfect balance between sim and arcade racing. Though it has a big learning curve once you get the basics in you really start to feel the sim racer inside you. Also project cars 1 is perfect for any gamer with low end pc and the graphics are top notch. All in all bloody awesome game!

Demanding racing game that will punish you for every wrong turn you take. There are no flashy explosions, generous rewinds, or a derby feel. The game is geared solely towards the player, and it makes you feel like you are a part of something bigger than yourself. Usually, racing simulator games target only the hardcore gamers, but surprisingly Project Cars fit every spectrum of gamers. With its advanced “Make your own game” features, that include – change AI difficulty, edit all the HUD, choose your desired career mode tier, enable race impactors like rain, heating tires, rubber fragments, blazing sun rays. The game offers a wide variety of cars, and they all look amazing because of the high detailing they depict. One of the best career modes available out there. Truly an affordable, flexible, challenging, and user-friendly game at the same time. It’s also available on PS4, PC, and XBOX. Great menu UI and audios are just cherries on the top. Just grab your wheel or controller and screech your tires. ! Gameplay ! If you are looking for fun gameplay, then project cars is your safest bet. Everything within the game attains great stability between challenge and user-friendly interplay. You are not forced to follow any particular playstyle. Select a race spectrum that best describes your experience and skill level. In career mode, you can choose from a total of 8 tiers, either commence from tier 8 or instantly jump to tier 1. Don’t worry if you desire to switch your tiers and want to experience something diverse, as the game supports multiple career saves. All the HUD can be changed, if you are not happy with a wheel on the screen, then you are free to remove it. AI difficulty can be changed from 0 to 100, which is a unique option for many racing games. Select a sweet spot that best suits your style and have fun. The audio feels astonishing. The menu is expertly made with impressive narration, which only helps you instead of making you frustrated. About the in-game racing, you will feel the adrenaline rush after looking at the countdown, as you are surrounded by other racers who are competing with each other for the top spot. The screeching tires, glazing sun, great environment, and marvelous graphics will give you a perfect racing experience. If you accidentally selected a different profile which is not suiting you, then you can easily change them from options. You don’t need to follow presets as you can revamp all of those. The game also allows you to...

Car Sim - Super semantics edition

Graphics look great, controls behave terribly. If I was willing to spend a thousand bucks to build out a driving sim cage with pedals, shifter, wheel etc, then maybe I'd like this game. Trying to control this game with a gamepad or a keyboard is like trying to herd cats. If you love the challenge of figuring out how to control a high speed vehicle with limited controls, by all means, pick it up.

Despite being an older title, this game will run on most modern hardware without a hitch. And though Project Cars 2 has the better graphics & AI, I find the original drives better. Plus, being the GOTY edition, you get all the DLCs for a very low price. I'd recommend this to anyone who's in to casual simulator sessions.
