After selling my ps3 to Fred a while back I decided to buy another ps3, which no doubt i'll sell again in a few months when i don't use it again.

I like driving games and wonder if anyone has any recommendations?

I love the Need for Speed games, so will have to get them and what Grand Theft Auto games can i get for a ps3? Just GTAIV?

Race Driver:GRID is pretty good.

the new need for speed is quality, not a massive fan of Gran turismo, this is much better gameplay

Ages ago I won need for speed undercover (latest but one), just gave it a hizz thanks to this thread. Its OK, not sure I'll play it much TBH. Couldn't get online working at all, it just sat there "loading"

In fact, the last driving game I really enjoyed was Microprose Grand Prix (Atari ST).

Whits, I'm of the understanding the new NFS, Shift, is like Pro Street, which i hated. Is that true?

I liked NFS Underground 1 & 2 for the arcade style reckless racing and found that trying to make it a race sim was taking away what i loved most about it.

GRID looks good, i'll be venturing down that route thank you jayohaitchenn.

cod4 is the best game on the ps3 by a mile.
not a car game though.
motorstorm is pretty good and you can pick it up cheap as chips now

Scalextric is good but I prefer the Matchbox Hotwheels set up, especially the loop.

i been playing the new colin mcrea game on the xbox which is mint so no doubt it will be alright on the ps3

NFS Shift is just like Pro Street Barry. So if you didn't like it don't bother. Wait for GT5 which will be the dogs bollocks.

The new Forza Racing looks like it will be very good. Unfortunately it's an Xbox game.

Forza 3 demo is quality. Think it might turn out to be better than GT5 which actually surprises me.

I play GRID on the PC and I can vouch its a damn good game, probably the best PC driving game so its good to hear its as good on the PS3.

I'll probably still buy it, after all GT5 isn't out until... And i like GT5 as a race sim, so why not giev NFS another chance.


That's just not possible. However if you are right, i won't mind because GT5 has fezzas and proper exotica for once. I also won't be able to own an Xbox, unless it's running linux and using an Xbox emulator. Because that's funny.

GT5 should be out before Christmas although no date has yet been finalised.

The return of Gran Turismo... God... I remember losing my life to GT1 and then GT2, i can't wait to experience a full version of GT on the PS3 by stinking an F1 car or an F40 around the Nurburgring Nordschleife. It makes me wet.

Just bought myself COD4, because a load of mates have been on about it, so thought why not. I liove Metal Gear Solid and Tomb Raider, so maybe i'll like it?

Also bought myself NFS Carbon and Undercover. total including P&P £35. Not bad for a days shopping. :)

different type of game to those you mention as its a first person shooter.it's the dogs nads and online is superb too.

I need knew graphics in my computer, mine didn't like the water bits in Call of Duty so I stopped playing it.

I have NFS undercover Bazza, its ok, but i got bored as it seemed to be so repetitive.

Either that, or im shit at it.

Hopefully you're just shit tans. ;)

I loved Underground 1 & 2, so presumed Carbon and Underground would be a follow on from those and in the same mould. Hopefully they are.
