Yeah, I've seen a few videos now and it just feels wrong seeing everyone slow to a near crawl for a few seconds lol, but that's physics I guess.
I really like the Off Track events in this, I tried a Drift Event and erm, yeah, races are races, pretty fun. I bought a Dodge Viper and will try use it as much as I can until I buy a Ferrari
IIRC Burnout 2 had a banger boost theme, I played that demo with the Green Car with the ripped decal design a million times
Someone ELI5 why drifting at speed is slower than actually slowing down to take a corner again

What do we think has the best drifting in arcade racing? Feel like most people would default to Outrun 2 but I think Burnout 3 takes it, drifting around a big curve in between incoming traffic is almost lethal amounts of adrenaline.
Okay yeah, different game but I was getting the hang of that concept last night in GT2, hard to get my head around not doing a juicy drift but I'll get used to it
Early Forza 6 thoughts are I'm really not sure simulation games are for me, but I'm kind of enjoying it despite not being very good. I have no idea how to tune cars and some events I've done are clearly expecting me to do it, or at least feel like it, so I keep just over and understeering into and through barriers, kind of miss tapping brake and subtly steering in Burnout 3 to drift 1/3 of the track in one go.
Japan looks lovely though, and I like driving around Tokyo, unless I'm missing something I can't seem to find a way to find individual areas in a region so I have no idea where Akihabara is in the Tokyo City region for instance, and I only found Shibuya by accident, which is kind of annoying.
Found an Aston Martin Vanquish and now I feel like James Bond.
