How can you not mention the original Assetto Corsa.....which is probably more popular and used on a daily basis sim than just about any other picks that you listed? I'm not trying to be mean, but why the heck did you leave AC out?
I still play it more than Forza. I decided not to buy PC3. It looks pretty much the same and I'm putting off getting the latest Forza Motorsport for similar reasons
As a console only player my close to perfect game would be GT7 graphics with ACC FOV options with a mix of ACC, AC and PC2 force feedback and PC2 tracks and cars.
is acc any better than gt7 on ps5? i had alot of crazy players that kept ramming me off the track in GT7, its been worst this year 😅 always wonder if the players are any better and how the game is like 😂
@@krukan6 well, it dont matter that much bout that... coz fact is, there are GT7 players who became racers... i never heard of ACC players becoming racers lol
@@VSL_babyface It depends on what you like of course. GT7 is a much bigger title than ACC but ACC is closer to reality than GT7 and that is fact. We have a Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo racer in our ACC team. ua-cam.com/video/TmZz-9oFDuU/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
Project cars 2 is definitely not a simcade. Don’t do that. U can’t even control that game at all with a controller. Steering wheel only!!!! GT7 at least u can but still quite difficult and mostly used with a steering wheel. Any game that mostly and only requires a wheel is effectively a sim.
Calling bullshit on your first statement, iRacing is undoubtedly the best sim for ranked online racing, but back in the dark days of the lockdown professional drivers laughed at it's physics. Real racing teams use rFactor Pro as a training tool.
For me the first DiRT Rally and Project Cars 2 are the best. I need to upgrade my PC to be able to try newer titles, though. I remember the time when NFS Shift 2 was released, I played it a lot. It is not good for today's standard but it is fun.
@@michaelvelez6699 We’ll have to agree to disagree then, since I learned to drive with FM4, and in FM2023 they added tire wear, fuel management and damage system, which I believe is the whole point of the simulator > damage effect on performance. But I understand why you don’t consider it a sim, since it’s still inferior to the AC series in some handling and speed aspects. Can’t wait for AC3 for the PS5, hope I’ll see you on the starting line.
Dirt and WRC are close now. I agree not a sim but dang they’re fun. If you want to be absolutely frustrated race in Greece while it’s raining. WRC takes the W for track physics IMOP.
My 3 favorite STEAM racing games on my PC are Assetto Corsa, RFactor 2, and AMS 2. All three games have allot of variety of tracks and vehicles and there always 3rd party mods released for them. I have many other racing games for F1, Rally, Bikes, Arcade type, and older games. but the top 3 are what I mention above. GT racing games - Though I have a couple of these games (ACC), they are not my favorite type of racing, and they are too Niche of a game on one particular series or type of cars. I don't do Console games, my PC racing games keep me busy enough. Also I don't like IRacing Subscriptions. Only one time game buys from STEAM. Bye!!!
Hello, I have just started playing Project Cars (1) on Xbox One X and it is annoying because every ~5 minutes there is a screen freeze for a few seconds. The game continues in the background, I crash and I have to restart the race. Does anybody know the problem and could help me by solving the issue? Thanks in advance! Best regards
The handling in Automobilista 2 feels "weird" IMO, and it sucks that they dont have any real cars (or maybe they have a few..? I dont remember..). Probably my least favorite racing game tbh - but i know a lot of people like it, so whoever reads this may still be of a completely different opinion. Ive not tried iRacing, LeMans Ultimate, or F1 2023, but all of them looks tempting IMO. So far my favorite track racing games are AC and ACC - although nothing beats a good rally game. The wide trakcs in track racing just wont give me that same feeling of speed that i get from much lower speeds on a narrow winding road, and the lower speeds in rally also allow me to take much quicker turns, and drive much more aggressively than i could when going at 200+ km/h on a track. All this being said, track racing is still a lot of fun, and great for some extra variation. Especially longer tracks, like Nordschleife
At least half these games are simcade. GT7, FM, Dirt2, EARally, BeamNG, are not actual sims. GT7 and FM which are the closest, need a lot more work to be considered sims. Especially GT7 physics which are inferior to FM and FM actually claims to be a simcade. It's like they spent way too much time modeling cars and not the gameplay.
'Forza Motorsport has the best graphics'. This game has been slated for it's graphics and rightly so. Forza Motorsport is the biggest let down from a big studio in Motorsport yet. Like others are saying, where is the original Assetto Corsa? Come on, to put Forza on this list over Assetto Corsa is almost criminal.
It didn't take more than 15 seconds from the start to understand that this video is complete nonsense. "iRacing is undoubtedly the best simracing game when it comes to realism". A better description would be "iRacing does everything well, except the driving itself, which is just really bad". Driving in iRacing is not realistic at all. It is not without reason that it is nicknamed "ice racing". It goes even further in the video. Assetto Corsa Competitione comes into the picture. The voice over talks about Assetto Corsa. Doesn't the creator of this video know that Assetto Corsa Competitione and Assetto Corsa are two completely different racing games? Over F1 2023: "The new handling modelfeels amazing for players with a racing wheel" ???? We are talking about Sim Racing Games in this video. Are the other sim racing games in this video not amazing for players with a racing wheel? Can you drive these games with a joystick or whatever controller as good as with a racing wheel? This video is entitled "TOP 10 Best Sim Racing Games 2024". Then it should be about that too. Assetto Corsa is from 2014. That could be a reason not to mention it. But why leave out "LeMans Ultimate"? I have the strong impression that the creator of this video does not know what he is talking about and does nothing more than parrot advertising texts for some racing games. What is best is always a matter of personal preference. But this video really misses the point.
lmao...tell that to Max Verstappen...also, the many other professional drivers that prefer iRacing as a simulator...who to trust more, nitromcclean, or professionals?...lmao
@@christopherraines3202 Yeah really. I don't know why you think this, but Max Verstappen has never said that he prefered iRacing. He also finds iRacing a joke. According to him rFactor 2 is the best of the commerial available race sim.
The narrator voice, the blank video content, or maybe saying "real life racing car" about four times in the video makes me want to not recommend that video. But nowadays it's up to the youtube algorythm to decide
this might be one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard, because I’m almost certain that almost everyone started off racing in video games with a controller. Whether it’s a sim or an arcade 🤦♂️ Not everyone has 200 bucks laying around for a sim setup.
Assuming everybody played games that you consider "sim racing setup only", how many copies would those games sell? 10? 100? 1000, at max? You gotta be thankful that people with controllers buy those games, that you like playing on your wheels and pedals, because otherwise you'd very fast run out of games to play) That is exactly the same reason why Project Cars and Project Cars 2 resulted in Project Cars 3) Because those, who pay, in 99% of cases, buy games for fun, not for hardcore professional gameplay.
@@xphxntomxagreed, I neither play often enough or for long enough (or currently have room to keep a full set up). I can feel the drawbacks with controller steering but all of the above outways them. It's still fun!
I have to highly disagree with you regarding Forza and Gran Turismo. Before going PC I was on consoles for the longest. Was a huge Playstation fanboy and hated Xbox. That is until one day I stopped by my friends house and he was showing me how he did a drivetrain and engine swap on a car. Left his house and went straight to the store and bought an Xbox. Now, when it comes to gameplay and physics, Forza BLOWS AWAY Gran Turismo. The physics are way more real. I could take the same car and track and go fast around a corner. With Forza the car's rear end will get loose and slide out on you. GT just heavily understeer and washes out. Not to mention the cars sound like crap on GT. I think it was GT5 when every car sounded exactly the same. Not to mention the last good GT was #3. After that they all fell off big time, until GT7 which is finally decent. Plus, you can play cross platform on Forza. I am on PC now but my friends and I have weekly races and some of them are still on Xbox. I don't think you can run cross platform on GT, I could be wrong. But, Assetto Corsa, Automobilista 2, and most of the other games you covered do blow both GT and Forza out the water.
Graphics aren’t nearly everything, Dirt has some of the most in depth feedback and realism. Leaps ahead of other games. I love using my racing wheel with Dirt.
Everybody's still sleep on raceroom racing experience, some of the best physics and audio to me
The free saleen s7,such a nice sound
I have 693 hours on it. It's a great sim.
I couldn't believe that RR3 wasn't mentioned (or the original Assetto Corsa). They are two of my top three sims....
How can you not mention the original Assetto Corsa.....which is probably more popular and used on a daily basis sim than just about any other picks that you listed? I'm not trying to be mean, but why the heck did you leave AC out?
Assetto Corsa with Content Manager, of course

Iracing, ACC and AMS2 are my favorites. They all work well together to fit my Simracing needs.
Is nobody gonna talk about the fact that F1 2023's graphics are actually really good? It's kinda astounding that he said the don't look that great.
