Comparison

With just over three weeks until the release of F1 2019, Codemasters is showing off more of its official racer. The newest batch of images focus on the changes the team has made to nighttime driving...

After nearly two years of wait, buyers can now place their order for the $35,000 Tesla Model 3. Yet just like when it was first announced back in July 2017, it’s still not as it seems...

It’s time for another sim racing comparison. This time around, it involves a classic French rally car and two of the biggest titles on consoles...

If you’ve been living under a particularly large rock lately, you may have missed Polyphony Digital adding 10 new cars to GT Sport last week. They’re all familiar cars from the days of GT6, but one has enjoyed a more substantial facelift than the others...

As the Porsche 911 RSR unexpectedly landed in Forza 7 this week, the vehicle has become a new comparison point between the generation’s top racing games. The RSR is now widely available to drive in the genre, appearing in GT Sport, Assetto Corsa and of course, Forza 7. Comparison expert MotogamesTV has put each title up against each other in a new video...

When it became clear that GT Sport wouldn’t be using the PS3-era Premium models in its car list, it was a bit of a shock. The extremely well detailed vehicles from the previous generation seemed a certainty to carry over to the PS4 — Kazunori Yamauchi even said they were more appropriate for this generation — but this never happened. It has meant that Sport’s car roster has basically had to start from scratch, leaving a much smaller number of total cars than previous entries...

As the big three racing games of the year find their way into stores, it’s inevitable comparisons will follow. Forza Motorsport 7, GT Sport and Project CARS 2 all look like they will offer good gaming experiences but the competitiveness in the genre means we have to compare these titles. YouTube channel MotogamesTV has put together a video pitting GT Sport against Project CARS 2...

A new video provides an easy and direct comparison of just how accurate the daunting Green Hell is in GT Sport...

One criticism often leveled at Gran Turismo regards its sounds, with Kazunori Yamauchi himself apologizing for the audio quality. A promise of change has proven to be true for the latest iteration of the series, at least in this early beta phase...

Following up from the comparison to the original Project CARS, we now have some more footage directly looking at how GT Sport compares to its predecessor, Gran Turismo 6...

The familiar setting of Brands Hatch has become a testing ground for yet another comparison, showing the similarities — and differences — between two racing simulators. The latest video compares Project CARS to the GT Sport beta, using the up-to-date Corvette C7.R and Gr.3 car, respectively...

Youtube channel GamerMuscle recently took the chance to drive one of the latest Porsches available in sim racing on two platforms: Assetto Corsa and iRacing. The video comparison — aiming to find the differences between the two PC simulators — was carried out on the British circuit Donington Park...

The strapping Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat has become the subject of another audio evaluation in GT Sport. Carried out by MotoGamesTV once more, the footage puts together GT Sport’s latest direct-capture audio sample of the car against the one found in Forza Motorsport 6...

A generation in the gaming industry usually means a leap in the scope and technical ability for a new entry in a given franchise, and courtesy of Motogames’ direct comparison video of GTS and GT6 above, it seems Gran Turismo will be no different...

The flurry of whispers, theories, and rumours have all been confirmed, and laid to rest – Forza Motorsport 6: Apex, Turn 10’s first PC-oriented title of the series, has been recently launched as a beta for the Windows 10 platform...

The emotional investment toward Assetto Corsa now that we’re just over a month away from the console release is almost palpable, and with good reason: console-goers have plenty to look forward as many of those currently enjoying the game on PC will surely attest...

There’s no such thing as “too many tracks”. Any sim racer will tell you that. Of course, just like the available garage that ships with a new title, the track roster is always going to be limited by time. Developers have to walk a fine line, including tracks that (hopefully) please as much of the player base as possible. Some, as it turns out, will end up more popular than others...

A recent trend in new rally games is to include some form of Rallycross, as the discipline enjoys an explosion in popularity. Two of 2016’s major rally releases (DiRT Rally and Sebastien Loeb Rally Evo) both represent the sport, with the former having official FIA certification. SLRE counters with 5 circuits whereas DiRT has 3, so from a track perspective SLRE has the edge. Even more so if we include SLRE’s latest DLC pack which includes ‘Hell’ in Norway...

As Assetto Corsa gets closer to a mainstream release, buzz around the game is expected to grow larger as time goes on. A video released on Youtube – by Kunos Simulazioni team member Aristotelis Vasilakos – aims to build around this buzz, showing off just how well AC handles (and looks) compared to reality using the bellissimo Italian combination of an Alfa Romeo 4C on the Modena Circuit...
