Burnin’ up the track.
Racing games can really get that adrenaline going. But how do you choose which games are worthy of your attention? Let’s take a look at a four that you may want to consider taking out for a spin.
Forza Horizon 4
This game combines racing and music in a festival type atmosphere that will keep you on the edge of your seat. There are new vehicles, solo and multiplayer modes, and seasonal effects. Players have commented that the changing weather patterns are the most exciting part of the game. This forces drivers to adjust the way they maneuver around the track.
Horizon Chase Turbo
Horizon Chase Turbo has a bit of a throwback feel but does not disappoint in excitement. This game focuses on your ability to weave between your rivals’ vehicles. It also requires you to collect as many gas canisters as you can to keep fuel in your car. But what really draws people into this game is the visuals it provides. The graphics bounce around between beautiful pastel and neon colors.
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
Kart racing gets ramped up as you storm through classic Sega locales on land, sea, and air. Additionally, you can play as some of the most legendary Sega characters of all time, including Sonic, Beat, and NiGHTS, as well as some surprising guest characters like Danica Patrick. The well-designed tracks and diverse array of characters will make this a game that won’t disappoint.
Split/Second
This game has one of the most unique premises of any recent racing game. This game is based on a fictional reality television program where you race and compete for fame and lots of money. Powerplay options exist and you need to strategically determine when you want to use some of these high-powered moves to your advantage. This arcade-style racing game has awesome explosions that will provide thrills from start to finish.
