Whether you are a petrolhead in the physical space or in a virtual world, there’s actually a tonne of skill to these games. With the need for quick reflexes and fast thumbs, we’ll look at, in our opinion, the 6 best racing video games of all time. There are a few exemptions from this list which are:
– Games based in the future (No Wipeout or F-Zero).
– Kart based games (No Mario Kart)
– Only games released before 1990 (sorry OutRun).
– The games have to involve racing (No Rocket League)
So…Ready. Set. Go.
