Hey fellow gamers,

please kindly share your racing game recommendations.

I didn't play any racing games in the last couple of years, so it doesn't need to be the latest titles, can be a bit older too.

I'm searching for something more on the casual side. Definitely no Sim. Are the recent NFS games any good? Like everybody I liked NFS Underground back in the days. Customizing cool cars is definitely a big plus.

Singleplayer campaign or something is required, because no way am I up to compete with people online.

If you're looking for something with a great campaign/single player than yeah the Forza Horizon series is great. you can customize the hell out of your cars, it's VERY easy to get new cars, and the single player is fun with a lot of variety.

If you're looking for something "mindless" that you can just jump into and fuck shit up after a long day of work then Burnout Paradise.

If you're a fan of future racing ala WipeOut on the Playstation then BallisticNG. It's pretty much exactly WipeOut and you can download via the workship all the old WipeOut tracks and crafts that people have made and made VERY well. I love the game.

And BallisticNG is only $10.50 on steam right now, so thanks for that.

it's a great game with a very strong mod community so there's a ton of tracks and ships/crafts you can download. Soundtrack is great too. I have mine modded with every single track and ship from every single WipeOut game, even all the music too.

I have burnout on every device but after 20 years or so I was hoping to find something new here
