Hey fellow gamers,

please kindly share your racing game recommendations.

I didn't play any racing games in the last couple of years, so it doesn't need to be the latest titles, can be a bit older too.

I'm searching for something more on the casual side. Definitely no Sim. Are the recent NFS games any good? Like everybody I liked NFS Underground back in the days. Customizing cool cars is definitely a big plus.

Singleplayer campaign or something is required, because no way am I up to compete with people online.

Forza Horizon 4 or 5. They're a little sim-y but very arcady at the same time. Very enjoyable games. 4 is better in terms of the map and story / single player experience, but 5 has better audio and visuals and car selection.

    Had a lot of fun with both Horizon 4 & 5, great mix of arcade and sim. Tons of cars, just about everything is viable. Lots of accessibility options, should be a good fit for just about anyone.

    Forza Motorsport (2023) on the other hand is a massive disappointment. Avoid. Driving dynamics are good and more simmy, but everything else is a downgrade from its 7 year old predecessor. Kind of amazing how terrible it is. Apparently Microsoft had developers constantly rotating out on short contracts and it shows.
