Project Gotham Racing (Xbox)
Gran Turismo (PS2)
F-Zero (GCN)

we dont count mario kart in, since its a party fun game instead of a gamer racing type of game.

I am a Nintendo fan but I have to say Gran Turismo is better...

This is a weird poll. Futuristic, Street and Simulation.

Gran Turismo should be winning this by a mile. I find pgr2 more fun tho.

Double Dash would be a better choice to put up there for GCN's racer, because nobody owns freaking F-Zero. It sold less than 100,000 copies didn't it? Mario Kart has already sold millions. Its definately one of my favorites, if not my very favorite Gamecube game.

Ok, I've been wondering this for a while... What the **** does "pwnz" mean? :?

Pwnz - To refer to the Term Own, Owns, or Owned.

Owns: To be great to no other.
Owned: To have greatness over one or all.

Why don't people just say Owns then...?

DD is more of a fun and party game rather than racing game.... I love DD, but I dont think it fits this catagory

chimmy, you have to be a counterstrike player to understand and truly appreciate the greatness of "pwnZ' or "0wn3d" or any other variation of it,lol.

Metropolis Street Racer, by far. Super Mario Kart was the most fun I thought.

Sega_Sage

Forget the poll...it is missing some of the greats

LeMans 24 Hours - Dreamcast
Metropolis Street Racer - Dreamcast
Sega Rally Championship - Saturn
Mario Kart 64 - Nintendo 64
Tokyo Extrem Racer - PS2/Dreamcast
Wipeout -PSone/PS2
Ridge Racer Type 4 -PSone

There are so many hot racing games...but you would have to break them down into categories as Camron mentioned. You would need to ask what is the best simulation, best street racer, best fantasy, best sci fi etc. So I propose a vote within a voting thread.

What do you think is the best...

Sci-Fi/Futuristic Racer
Simulation Racer
Arcade Racer
Street Racer


I think the best futurustic racer would have to be F-Zero GX. I think Quantum Redshift comes close because it really imersses you deeply with its visual effects...but F-Zero plays better. Between street racing I would say three way tie between MSR, PRG2 and Tokyo Extreme Racer 2. Tokyo Extreme Racer 2 is the only true street racing game among the three. MSR just happens to have an atmosphere not found in MSR thanks to the jazzy tunes of Richard Jacques...and PGR2 just happens to play a bit better than MSR. As far as arcade racers go...I would say tie between Daytona and Ridge Racer Type 4. R4 has beautiful car control and music to go along with it. But Daytona is just so addictive.

"MSR just happens to have an atmosphere not found in MSR thanks to the jazzy tunes of Richard Jacques...and PGR2 just happens to play a bit better than MSR."

Is that second MSR meant to be PGR2? Agreed though, I'd rather listen to original compositions by Richard Jacques than Kittie.

Futuristic: F-Zero
Simulation: undecided
Street Racing: MSR
Arcade: Beetle Adventure Racing

Daytona USA was and always will be my favorite racing game. but since its in the arcades, I can't win here.

All the Sega raceing games are the best.

a lot of polls for F-Zero here, you guys picked it because Sega made it or something? heh :lol: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Double Dash is more whacky though.
I still feel F-Zero provides me with more challenges.

Nuckles87
02-20-2004, 09:35 PM
Could ya still add Le Mans though, for the DC entry? Pweeaase?

Nyceane

Sega made F-zero... and thats a good piece of work Sega has done.



GX Sales
F-Zero GX I believe is one of the best racing games ever. But I do not see too many people that decided to buy a copy. How much did F-Zero GX sell? Is that considered a success?

Matt responds: About 180,000 units so far. Not a bad figure, but then again, this is one of the best racers to come along in the last several years. Personally, I blame Mary Jane and Fran for this.

only problem i had with need for speed underground was that EVERY track looked the same. it got boring after a while. PGR 2's tracks have so much variety and are so beautiful w00t

Holy cr@p. F zero GX is winning?

hahaha i guess it doesnt matter whether u bought it or not, as long as its on the system u like.

Dont get me wrong, i love f zero. It was the game that made me get gamecube again, but for best racer?

Absolutely nothing compares to Gran Turismo. PGR2 isn't better, but it's still hella fun

you need to list more than just 3, and put other on it too, for people who can't pick the game they like. Rookie poll maker!!!
