975th played so far Genre: Racing Platform: PC Year of Release: 2005 Developer: SimBin Studios Publisher: 10tacle Studios/Atari After fairly recently playing GTR 2, we now get to play the previous SimBin game – same system, different races, and so a lot of realistically timed races in their specific setting.

960th played so far Genre: Racing Platform: Xbox 360/PC Year of Release: 2007 Developer: Bugbear Entertainment Publisher: Empire Interactive Racer 38. The only one of Bugbear Entertainment’s on the list, although we’ve seen Empire Interactive publish a couple of games so far in quite different genres.

937th played so far Genre: Racing Platform: Xbox 360 Year of Release: 2005 Developer: Bizarre Creations Publisher: Microsoft Game Studios It feels like Microsoft has had the lead in racing games for the past fifteen years, if not more. We’ve played a few Forza games, which are Xbox or Microsoft platform exclusive, and the Project […]

832nd played so far Genre: Racing Platform: PC/Playstation 3/Xbox 360 Year of Release: 2009 Developer: Asobo Studio Publisher: Codemaster One part of the structure of the list is that 2009 games are over represented on the list – over a tenth of the list is that, which makes sense when the book was published in […]

819th played so far Genre: Racing Platform: PC Year of Release: 2006 Developer: Blimey! Games/Simbin Publisher: ISImotor Considering the most recent racer I played is one of the less realistic ones, with Carmageddon II, switching to GTR 2 is going in the opposite direction.
