Best/most realistic PS4 racer?

Project Cars or Asetto Corsa.
Bang on...both are great.PCars has a great career mode if you mainly offline, some people say they prefer Assetto Corsa FFB, but I don't think there is much in it tbh. Both are a shambles online because most people try to win the race at turn1.

You will need a wheel to play these games to their full potential.
This. Project Cars looks quite good but is pretty miserable with a controller, steering wheels aren't cheap either - I had one on PS3 that cost £50 and worked just fine but logitech screwed everyone over and you now need to pay well in to three figures for one.I think the Xbox with the Forza games has the playstation licked to be honest. The continuing farce of the gran turismo series is just pathetic. I really don't understand why Sony are so reticent to make a decent driving/racing game.

It's not it that Sony don't want too, I think the Development team are just useless. They're so far behind the curve now it's laughable. How the mighty have fallen ey?!I think the Xbox with the Forza games has the playstation licked to be honest. The continuing farce of the gran turismo series is just pathetic.

And what's the opinion of the new VR headset with these games?
Not out yet. Games must be specifically coded for VR you just load any game and expect it to work.The only game I've seen so far to support it is Drive Club, which looks good. No idea how it drives.
I suspect PCars/AC/Dirt won't be far behind though as they support VR on the PC.

Cheers, good to know as I wasn't upto speed with it, knew it had been launched but would only buy for racing sims. I shall be treating myself once they are though, along with a new seat and wheel combo!The only game I've seen so far to support it is Drive Club, which looks good. No idea how it drives.

I remember when it first came out I bought a G25 for nearly £300!
Combine with a Playseat Challenge you have a really decent little racing rig setup for under £300.
Love mine with PCars.
You can play PCars fine without a pad but not as consistently. I managed fine in the Weekly challenge we have on here
Regarding Drive Club, good fun game, but defo arcadey rather than full sim. Haven't tried it with the wheel, but was perfectly playable with gamepad.

F1 2016 has got fairly good reviews and what I am going to get next, although I mostly do offline play so the career mode should give plenty to go at
Good game and good handling, but the rear view makes it almost impossible to race. On the airbox view (imo) the best for racing as cockpit view is too low, the HUD covers the right hand side mirror meaning you can only see attacks coming from the left hand side. Considering most tracks are anti clockwise this is a major issueSheetmaself said:

So is GT dead in the water nowadays as that was THE go to racer on PS!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2h-Kycm8Jxois the trailer for the latest one. Then this came out and it looks and sounds a bit, well, average

PS4 has been around for what 3 years and they still haven't got their arse in gear - it won't be out until sometime next year. This is after years of delays for GT on the PS3, which when it did appear was mediocre.
Too little, too late. They're done.

I don't think £150 for a G29 is a lot of money.

They are £180 and a stand to put the thing on is another £100 or so. I think its quite a lot of money for a casual gamer to fork out, only to be shafted again when the next console comes out and have to bin it and start again.I remember when it first came out I bought a G25 for nearly £300!

There is no reason why they couldn't make the DFGT work on PS4, they just decided not to.

I paid £140 delivered from Amazon last month. They had a deal on.
Even without needing a playseat, most people have a table or desk they can use (just so happened that I do as well but it would not work with my room layout).
Point is I would class myself as a casual gamer and it wasn't that much money. I enjoy playing racing games. It makes sense to buy something which enhances my experience.
Anyway it's all relative.
