Assolutamente inedito ed interessante è il video di confronto che ci propone questa sera l'amico AdrianF1: nel trailer possiamo ammirare la Stock Car V8 reale guidata da Barrichello sul tracciato di Brasilia in paragone diretto con la sua controparte virtuale di Game Stock Car 2013. Interessante vero?

Il team Slightly Mad Studios ha annunciato un nuovo accordo di licenza per il suo Project CARS: grazie alla partnership con la Radical potremo guidare nel simulatore ben tre diverse vetture della casa inglese, ovvero la Radical SR3 RS, Radical SR8 RX e la Radical RXC Turbo.

Slightly Mad Studios is expanding the collection of vehicles in Project CARS with another prominent addition, as Radical Sportscars is the latest car manufacturer to join the WMD-powered title. Project CARS will feature three of the British company’s prototype racers, the cars will play a pivotal role in Project CARS’ extensive career mode, providing players with challenging vehicles to prove themselves in on their way to the top of the racing world.

I trailer dedicati al nuovo Assetto Corsa della Kunos Simulazioni sono davvero tantissimi, ma particolarmente affascinanti risultano essere quei video che mettono in confronto diretto il simulatore di Casillo con la realtà (come quello qui sotto), oppure con altri software, come rFactor e Race 07.

Tony Stewart, the three-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion and winner of the “Drive For the Cover” contest, was chosen by more than 700,000 fans to appear on the front of the box. Today gamers can race as Stewart or more than 40 other licensed drivers in NASCAR ‘14 and then watch him as he returns to the track at the Daytona 500 on February 23.

“Deep Silver is releasing the best NASCAR game yet,” said Deep Silver Inc. COO, Geoff Mulligan. “By delivering a true NASCAR experience that captures the competitive thrill of the sport, we are allowing hardcore fans to get as close to the track as possible.” “With the Daytona 500 only a week away, the level of anticipation for the 2014 NASCAR season is reaching its climax with teams, drivers and fans,” said Blake Davidson, NASCAR Vice President of licensing and consumer products. “We are equally as excited about the launch of NASCAR ’14, as it brings our sport into the homes of gaming enthusiasts across the country.”

Un nostro nuovo amico appassionato ovviamente di sim ci propone il suo primo video nel quale va a trattare le origini di iRacing partendo dal gameplay di Indianapolis 500: The Simulation sino ad arrivare a NASCAR Racing 2003. Non mancate di fargli sapere cosa ne pensate.
