Re: Driving / Racing / Flight Sims for PS3
I can add a couple of opinions about PS3 racing games.
You/your friend may also want to check out gamefaqs.com. Just look up the racing and driving section for PS3 and check out the reviews for the various games. They list most if not all the available games for PS3.
1 positive(mostly) - Motorstorm is a fun arcade off-road racer. Nice eye and ear candy. Be warned though, later in the game the AI's only objective is to keep you from winning. Kinda takes the incentive out of finishing it up, for me anyway.
1 negative - Grid is a crap. However, if your friend has experience with any other CodeMasters games like the TOCA Race Driver games, this is almost the exact same thing, but with improved visuals. I.e., the physics are the same bizzare, floaty, car is on stilts kinda thing that seem to plague these guy's games. YFMMV.

Thanks for that. I will pass that on. I already told him to check on GFAQ.Kaison wrote:I can add a couple of opinions about PS3 racing games.

Re: Driving / Racing / Flight Sims for PS3
Gran Turismo was always the driving sim for PS. There are others but they aren't as good, IMO.
The Ac e Combat series was fantastic fun for a flight sim but unfortunately the latest version is only for XBox I think. I can't remember which versions run on PS3 but they are all good. Dogfighting on a big screen rocks.
