Console or PC? Console PCars 2 or AC.I'm looking for the best game for cruising in cars with proper clutch and h shifter support, and somewhat realistic physics. What do you recommend?

Console ideally.
PCars 2 and AC are great, but for cruising they are very limited by track length.
Yeah, I suspected that might be the case.If you are looking for open world driving games on console, you are pretty much restricted to arcade racing games. If you are seeking realism, you are most likely to find enjoyment picking any of the Forza Horizon games.

I'm very tempted by Horizon 2, but I don't have an Xbox One, and I would need a Drivehub to use my G29. How good is Horizon for realistic cruising? Is the simulation setting any good? Also, can you turn off all the HUD and notifications to make it more relaxing and realistic?
How is the FFB? Is there any detail in the road surface?Personally, I haven't done much cruising in any of the Horizon games, But FH2 has such lovely scenery and the option to switch off HUD, so I reckon it will be a great fit for what you are looking for in terms of the visual experience. Physics wise, It should prove realistic enough If you don't plan on going full throttle much; bear in mind the FH2 physics engine is loosely based on the engine used for the Motorsport series, so it's not too distant from being a sim.
Wouldn't that be fairly irrelevant if your only cruising? When I cruise in my real car I mainly feel things through my butt (which is why have a Buttkicker). The wheel is actually fairly light and dull.How is the FFB? Is there any detail in the road surface?
I don't have a Buttkicker so I like to get that info through the wheel. Most games do convey road surface info through the wheel, including big sims like AC and PCars 2. I would like to know if Horizon does the same thing.Wouldn't that be fairly irrelevant if your only cruising?

If you cruise in those games you don't get hardly any road feel either ... unless your thread title is misleading, I thought that's what you were wanting to do.I don't have a Buttkicker so I like to get that info through the wheel.

I see. Yes, a better title might be "Best free roaming car game with a wheel". I want to drive around appreciating the car, road and scenery without a specific objective, pushing the car if/when I choose to.If you cruise in those games you don't get hardly any road feel either ... unless your thread title is misleading, I thought that's what you were wanting to do.

Well in AC lobbies there are many cruising lobbies using Highlands long or Nords tourist which are pretty long, Highlands is pretty cool.Console ideally.
