Porsche sim?

Is there ANY Porsche sim out there?? I would like to race a Porsche! Thanks, Marc

The closest thing to a Porsche sim right now is Need For Speed. You can race a Porsche 911.

Need for speed, But the porches tail wags like a dogs tail.

Need For Speed is an excellent arcade racing game full of Porches, Ferraris, etc.! It is loads of fun to weave in and out of traffic and outrun cops in that tail-happy Porsche! Try it. -- Matt Lewis

There is some kind of Porshe racing game coming out...BUT it's by Sony for the playstation. Here's what i got from Next generation<nov.96> It's called Porshe Challenge, they got an official license from Porshce which allowed for an "accurate representation of the boxstre, both in terms of look and performance".The game includes Porshes' test track in Stuttgart and "24 other circuits, split into 5 different courses". According to NG sony has stated that there will be a 2 player split screen option....well, that's pretty much the sum of it. The screen shots look good <light sourcing is very impressive> Hope this helps JASON

Test Drive 2 "The Duel" has both the Porsche 959 and a RUF 911 Turbo in it's list of cars. This is a pretty old piece of software and it looks pretty sad (EGA graphics) by today's standards, but you did ask for ANY Porsche (is this spelled right??) sim. Now it's my turn... :) I'm sure I remember seeing a auto sim like test drive that had the Buick Grand National in it's selection of cars. This would be real old (late 80's) software, possibly a C-64 or Atari 800 program. Has anyone heard of this one?

Check out one of those Sony Playstation magazines: I saw a preview of a simulator around the new Porsche spider. Graphics looked _great_, so it will definitely interest you.

Marc: A fiendly piece of addvice. If you love Porsche I wouldn't get your hopes up about NFS. It's the Carrera2 not the Turbo. Personally I don't like being passed by Supra's when I driving a Porsche. It just dosn't feel right. I do still think that NFS is the best non race track sim you can buy. Hard to believe it first came out on the 3DO well over a year ago. -Marshall McLean

Need for Speed and Screamer

My favorite Porsche 911 Sim is: My Pickup. Cornering on dirt roads in Arizona simulates the famous "911 power oversteer" quite well. Of course, with the truck it's easier to gather it back up. Kidding aside, Didn't Accolade make a street driving sim, with which, you could drive Corvettes, Porsche's etc...? Was it any good?
