Best force feedback racing game?

I'm looking for a good racing game (nascar, indy) that also plays arcade style with good force feedback. Recommendations? Thanks! Steve Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Share what you know. Learn what you don't.

Hmm "somehow", the only title that goes in what your asking is VIPER Racing, by Sierra/MGI. It's a good racing game, that also plays arcade style with good force feedback. There is no other alternative for your choice, IMHO. -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you...

Collin Mcrae Rally has some nice arcade force feedback. The game is big fun too. Andre

You can use one of the lower powered cars, and then enable all of the help options. *PLUS* there is that bogus arcade driving view from above [F10]. Top all of that off with the best Force Feedback racing sim and you are all set.

Viper Racing. Or GPL but there is no Arcade racing mode in that really ;)

I'm personally not a great fan of the FF in CMRally. It seems to just be a lot of (too much!) permanent rumble, with little real input from the game. Just my opinion, mind, and it has been a while since I've tried it..... Mike.

You're right - in fact, when I first tried it the FF was completely mad - the wheel was juddering all over the place. I updated the drivers for my Guillemot wheel and it got a lot better, but it was a *huge* CPU hog - the game slowed down to a crawl as soon as I hit anything, and anyway there was no proper modelling of FF anyway - just rumble effects as you say. It's still a great arcade-style racing game, but not for the FF!

You're off the planet. The ff in Colin McCrae is about as good as you get . Have you never taken your car for a spin down a gravel road? Maybe the wheels and their drivers that you're using are at fault. I use a MSFF wheel. Try TOCA 2 as well. The ff is brilliant and better than GPL ff IMO (now that'll start a fight!). See ya.Andrew /;-)) >> I'm personally not a great fan of the FF in CMRally. It seems to just be a >> lot of (too much!) permanent rumble, with little real input from the game.
