Best Porsche driving sim for PS3?

[quyen]

Petrol is too expensive so Ithought I should get some practice on the PS3 instead.Can anyone suggest a good sim for the 996c2? Thanks

There aren't any, closest you'll get are the porsches in Forza 2, or a PC sim.

Thanks Steve, shame forza 2 is xbox only.

Wait for GT5

[quyen]

I heard GT5 will not have any porsche. Is that right?

I've played GTL which has a Carrera 2.7 RS, and it does feel a liltle bit like a real 911.

eta - on the pc though, so not much help.

If they can get the license, up til now they've had RUFs as stand-ins, much like the recent Project Gotham games.

That list is widely held to be what is technically known on the internet as "bollox"

Searching the 'net, Need for speed: Porsche Unleashed looks good but I guess it won't be available on the PS3 as it was originally released in 2000.

Need for speed: ProStreet has the 997 so is probably the closest thing to what I am looking for. However, is NFS: Prostreet a good sim or is it more of an arcade game? Thanks.

Definitely arcade. Really not sure what else to recommend for you.

No that list is right, even though that's probably about a tenth of the cars which will be in the final game

In GT5 i have a feeling they will do what they did in GT4 and call them RUF instead of porsche

Think you're a little confused there, they didn't just call them RUF, there is a German tuning company called RUF that takes Porsche bodies and builds their own cars with their modified engines in them.

This was the closest thing to Porsche that Polyphony could license. Simply saying that Polyphony renamed the Porsches to RUF is doing a real dis-service to RUF who have created some truly awesome cars, the original CTR Yellow Bird would be in my top 10 fantasy car list.
