DIrt 4 is a huge step up from Dirt 3, but I do agree it's not quite to the same level as Dirt Rally 1 and 2 and there's people who will argue neither of those are as good as Richard Burns Rally with NGP mods. I personally love the Dirt Rally games because of the total immersive package of better graphics and sound design to go with the physics, but RBR is still a great game to keep installed on a sim-racers hard drive (especially if you have a VR headset).

Forza developers really need to wake up and turn Motorsport into a much more serious sim (based on it's current state). They have Horizon to appeal to car fans and they should use motorsport to appeal to its motorsport fans. Grand Turismo is only to going to get even better with the next iteration as well.

GUMBA The handling gets better once you realize it doesn't have a high speed steering lock-out. Aka going 150mph and want to turn? The game will put them at the max turn as if you were parking. So you end up plowing forward like crazy. The answer is to steering less and that end up actually turning. But there are definitely improvements to be made.

Horace Reid getting cars via career mode is fine, it's a good way to get players engaged in your game. There are various cars though that after you miss an event you will never get them again. Say somebody gets the game today, they have missed several rivals events and they will never get that car. (Ford RS1800, 2016 Chevy Camaro, ect.) If you didn't sign up for a specific Porsche cup event then you will never get the 911 GT3 from 2016. That is what I have a problem with.

Also, it has realistic handling, engines can overheat, blow up, and basically every part can be broken, mechanical or cosmetic, even if it's not visibly broken, it will be simulated as broken i.e. overheated brakes. It can be played as a mess around game, racing game, fun scenario game, or even just a driving simulator! And, since it's so realistic, every car feels different, so get to know the car before pushing it to the limit!

rF2 tire deformation... Live for Speed was the first SIM to do it back in 2006 :)
A missed classic would be GTR2 for the best offline GT style racing. Also the fantastic power and glory mod of the 60s and 70s gt legends.
Yes! Iracing! This is the game I've been looking for my whole life. Bought it a few days ago and I'm addicted.
I was a big fan of GT for the longest time, but please if you are going to consider GT a sim and not a simcade then you have to include Forza in that group. I personally don't consider either a sim. They are both simcades and that is okay way more fun to play and far less tedious.

NASCAR Racing 2003 Season... I don’t even know how many hours I logged in that game. Probably the only racing game I played for at least 10 years.
Ive been having a blast with art of rally with just standard controller, it got me into buying the g29 and i gotta say, ive been having a lot more fun with forza horizon and art of rally with a wheel and gear shifter. Im not a super fan of the sims, but the more arcady stuff is really fun for me
I really didn't like tony when he first started these videos. He seemed so forced and tried way too hard, but he seems to be coming into his own. I really like his vids now that he toned it way down. Keep up the good work man.

WOAH HOLD UP Dirt Rally was the first to feature RallyX (licensed as well). Also, it's almost as hard-core sim as RBR. It's THE game to get if you want a modern, realistic Rally simulator. Dirt 4 is a great game but Dirt Rally is definitely more serious, realistic and demanding of your driving skills. And check out Automobilista if you're looking for a serious racing sim on the level of iRacing and rFactor 2 with great AI and some amazing cars. Racing trucks, F1 from multiple era's (60's up to modern F1), stadium trucks, V8 Supercars, some crazy British track monsters and many more cool racing cars. My favorite sim for serious offline racing.

I have countless hours in project cars 2 and Asetto Corsa. I like the immersion in Pcars2 more than AC, but I like the actual handling characteristics of AC more
I own the F1 2017, 18, 19, 20, and 21 along with need for speed payback and heat, Gran Turismo Sport, Grid, and Asseto Corsa, lol. I enjoy every last one of them.
Raceroom racing experience is the way to go. New and old racing cars ( from groupA, groupe C, group 5, GT3, GT2, M1 PRO séries, formula 1, GTO, and SO much more!! Great tracks too! Different displays, great physics the game is always improving. Oh, and instead of paying 60$ for a game where you only play 4 or 5 cars, Raceroom game is free, and each car and track is about 2/3$.plus some content is already free.
For me, iRacing is the best Sim I have ever played. I first started out playing Forza series a while back and then started doing stuff like PCars2. After that, moved up to iRacing. I actually had tried iRacing about a year earlyer and was not ready for it clearly. However, once I picked it back up and I knew what to expect, it has been great.
I'm an iRacer, and I have played just about all the other sims (even though Dirt 4 is arcadey) and can honestly say that you guys have hit the nail on the head with iRacing. It is the MOST REALISTIC sim out there. I switched from PS4 to PC in 2017, and I DO NOT regret it. rFactor, P Cars 2, and GT Sport are great, nothing quite gets close to iRacing. The fact that iRacing Laser Scans their tracks AND cars, it adds to the experience. For ANYBODY considering getting a PC for iRacing, I HIGHLY recommend doing it. It has also helped me in real life!

Automobilista and RaceRoom are less popular but good quality sims. RaceRoom (my favourite) is probably the best sim for WTCC/WTCR and DTM, and one of the best for GT3-R (ADAC GT Masters etc.), but has it's limitations like not having night or rain, and outdated endurance prototype cars & classes. Since this video, there has also been Assetto Corsa Competizione (probably the best sim for GT3), and Automobilista 2 (which is still fixing some bugs and continually being improved).
Honestly forza is probably one of the most fun but it’s not realistic like the others

You forgot to mention the older brother of Project Cars, it's GTR2. The game still envolves by large group of modders same as rFactor.
More of a drift guy? Would 110% recommend either Asseto Corsa or CarX Drift. Super hard on a wheel at the start but once you get used to it, it is amazing and feels legit.

GT sport is by far the best sim racer for a beginner like me. I bought a G29 and assetto corsa 2 years ago and got decimated in every race I took part in. When GT Sport launched with its circuit experience mode I would spend hours perfecting my line and technique on the real world tracks, and the game would tell you in detail what you should be focusing on. As far as I'm aware, gtsport is the only game to offer such a feature. Whenever I jump on assetto now, I actually keep up with the pact and know exactly what to do, no more rookie mistakes where I end up ruining the race for others. I have yet to win a race in assetto but I'm having so much fun just keeping up with others and having clean battles!

metaleggman18 I see people say this all the time, that gt is a 'simcade' and while I do agree to some extent I think gt is miles ahead compared to forza. When comparing assetto to gt though, I can see why people don't tend to label gt as a sim racer as the tuning options aren't as in depth and gt doesn't calculate ambient temp, wind speed etc. But from my own experience the cars handle and feel (on a wheel) nearly identical and seeing as I don't fully understand tuning and such, handling is definitely the most important and noticeable thing that I can comment on. The only real difference I can feel is that in assetto I understeer way more frequently than in gt. But that's just my opinion.

GT sport is a fantastic entry into simulation. Although not as realistic, it teaches you the basics and allows you to get the feel for it and become more accustomed to other sims. I've known many sim players that started out on GT and then moved onto AC, Pc2, and rF2.

Massive respect for the modders who made the Zastava Yugo for Richard Burns rally, not many people know, but Yugos are still widely used as the default race car basis in my country(where they were produced, after all), even to the extent that the main national circuit racing league allows only yugos made of factory Zastava parts, then additionally tweaked to take part in the race. Even though you can put all sorts of things in a yugo's shell and make it a rocket, there is the national class where they only allow clunker Zastava machinery to be tweaked and tuned to it's limits, complete with a rollcage and custom suspension and transmission to be honest, but... yeah. That's how they allow for everyone to have similar if not identical performance between cars. HELL YEAH, NATIONAL.YUGO HYBRID CLASS RACING KEEPS GOING FULL ON, as it did in 1991 and lonng before, so does it now in 2021, and so will it continue to do for some years to come 🙌
