Question Great vehicle games

Gran Turismo is said by many to be the most significant simulator, car game, but which other excellent vehicle games can you think of? Sega has contributed greatly to the genre.

Sega Super Hang-On

Sega Sand Buggy

Vigilante 8

Vigilante Pacer

Forza 3, it's by far my favorite racer. I've poured too many hours into it.

Whatever became of NasCar and Formula 1 racing?

Seems nothing runs on the newer machines these days.

I know, I still play Grid sometimes. Grid 2 would be awesome. Have you tried Dirt 2?

Dirt 3 and Race Driver Grid in my opinion are the best racing games of the decade

I guess you wouldn't count Mario Kart Wii?

Well, I enjoy it more than Gran Turismo.

Just sayin.

The last Mario Kart game I enjoyed was Mario Kart 64 a long time ago; simple and fun to play with friends. Can't stand Mario Kart anymore, doesn't seem that fun anymore (seems more complicated) and the graphics are terrible.

The latest I played and enjoyed was NFS: Porsche Unleashed. Sucks that I lost the CD key.
