Imagine if you had Driveclub's graphics, Gran Turismo's physics, Project Cars' mechanical damage, and Forza's game design and customization. Now that would be the greatest racing game of ALL TIME!
B/c 7.9 sounds like an average of many different factors which means they took the rating seriously. It prob did come out to 8 but that looks like not enough various ratings went into the equation.
Well, i'll be glad to try out the Ps plus edition first and who knows, might be end up buying the whole game once i played it. I'm not a huge fan of racing games anymore though.
Is it possible to just watch this video and say "this game looks pretty good, I'll get it". Instead of trying to compare to to every fucking similar xbox game.
***** Did you even read the comment I replied to? "Why would I spend $60 on something that doesn't bring anything new to the table? If games weren't compared to other games in the same market the industry would stagnate. DriveClub would've been a huge deal in 2006, but in today's market it isn't going to hold up." He was talking about GAMES and not bringing anything new. I did not compare the two at all, you read before you make yourself look like a douche nugget.
Bought this game thinking that it'd be boring closed track racer that only focuses on graphics and won't last long (i bought it because i liked the car list especially the cla) Turns out that i was wrong I found that this game surprisingly fun! I liked the handling it was accessible and believable (arcade but it was kinda realistic) And the soundtrack for this game was really nice to hear (i kinda like DnB music) and thank god it doesn't have dubstep The idea behind in race challenges was nice and tracks were well designed and i got to play online (servers can be up sometimes) and it was really fun the sense of speed was insane and so are graphics! Vinyl customization was also better than what i expected (still not the best but it was nice) For 40$ that's a steal! What do i give it? 8.5/10 Cons: -Cars can grip too much sometimes -0.5 -Needs more music -0.5 -Needs car tuning -0.5 Other than that it's recommended to get it from the ps store for 40$ (don't even think about buying nfs rivals that's a trap)
***** well... thank you Tbh i don't hate all kinds of dubstep but i hate the ones that take it too far like skrillex or something like that and remember that's just my opinion :)
Master Chef if i was biased i'd have gave it 10 or something like that All what i said is that it was better than what i expected I thought that it would be 5/10 at best for me but i like how it plays
No. It's Great, and most of the people spouting negativity probably tried it when it launched and are too narrow minded to take another look to see what a fantastic game it's become, or there just trolls.
Except Forza Horizon 2, Shadow of Mordor, and Destiny (I know, everyone hates it) Don't forget, both consoles still have plenty of games coming out in November, and early in to next year. ;D
Yep a lot of duds this year. It's pretty bad when that the next two games that i most excited for the rest of the year have already been released(gta5 and halo)
@@yesyes-om1po this game is more optimised than gt7 if the PS4 can handle all these dynamic reflections and shadows the PS5 can probably handle ray tracing at 30fps and upscaled 4k
You gotta give credit where credit's due, the attention to detail in this game, especially the cockpit view is the best I've ever seen in a racing game ever... The mileage changes in real time and so does the clock inside the pannel. The car models look exactly like their real life counterparts. The game drives great as well. I don't care about the social features at all, so the serves not working aren't a big issue to me. I think a 7.8 is a pretty fair score and I'd love to see a more complete sequel for this game. I'm, personally, enjoying the shit out of this game to be honest.
Jesus, could you guys stop picking console fights? "Oh wow, one exclusive on PlayStation isn't as good as a similar exclusive on Xbox which means Xbox is a better console." give me a break, they're both equally good consoles. I've owned both, and I prefer PlayStation. But the only reason I do is because I'm more comfortable with the controller/main menu. Other then that, they're practically the same!
GameStab Agree. I never owneed a Xbox but played them and I like Xbox, just not enough to buy one. I prefer Playstation, but doesnt mean I'm a fanboy, I am far from it. I like games regardless of what theyre on, thats why i also own a PC, a Wii, a Retron 5, Ps2, Ps3, and a N64.

Carsfor daniel very much so I just got onto drive club today, all my cars are still there, my club still active and cars that require being in a club still unlocked and my x2 reputation boosters I bought ages ago still active and I was getting those drift, average speed face off challenges during the sprint race I did. So yes still very much a great game off line

I like Luke Reilly and he is always really kind with his scores, which I also like. But it's scores like this that frustrate viewers. Granted this game is not of the same genre, but it still should be said-how did this get a 7.9 when just days ago Alien: Isolation was given a 5.9?

Alien Isolation is a more divisive game than this where some people like it, some people don't... on the flip side games that involve cars which Luke dislikes are few and far between.
What you are talking about is essentially should game be awarded just because it tries to be different? If reviews were some kind of award system, then you could say so, but they are not. Reviews are there for customers to make buying decisions. But really. Review scores in general are stupid. The actual meat of the evaluation for you should come from the text, or example reviewer/previewer from youtube. Video or text should tell you will YOU like the game. It shouldn't matter does the reviewer like it or not. It should only be about you being able to trust the reviewer and bringing out relevant info in balanced way.
It is driving at its best in a video game, but what really holds it back for me is a the lack of cars. Luckily for me I love European cars, but for this type of game it really needs a large car selection to shine.
After playing the game my fears have been put to rest. The realism and control is so absorbing that i can imagine playing this game for many, many hours.
Ignore every single thing you've heard about this game, hear or elsewhere, good or bad, the developers have continued to work on this game non-stop and it is now simply FANTASTIC! End of story! Btw, it's the best looking racer in existence, bar none, full stop!!!
The graphics are identical to Forza Motorsport 5's and the driving mechanics suck ass never mind the strict rules that they have against slamming into other players etc when it is an 'arcade racer'
Bahaha how much did you get paid for this review? This game is terrible. After watching numerous reviews and twitch streamers I'm so glad I didn't buy a copy. One guy even quit in the middle of his stream cause the tire screeching was so annoying. I'll stick to FH2 all day. This game was hyped up so much and I'm quite disappointed that it was this big of a let down.
"hyped up so much" umm whaaat? So in comparison to a game like GTA V, how much hype was there for that game? "hyped up so so so so much much"?? Seriously, how stupid. If you thought it was a let down then clearly you were someone hyping up the game... I didn't think the game was going to be great and so I am not disappointed.
***** Forza horizon was a new IP. The new one is the first sequel. Although it has the forza name, horizon was made by a new studio and is different to the standard forza's.
The same is true for users comments.... some people are payed for saying shit on reviews/Forums etc... And that is true. Anyway, the score system is shit in general. Why ? All people do not have the same opinion in this world. It gives a score of 7.9 and I do not know this guy and these tastes in terms of games. The best way for talking about a game is was TotalBiscuit make on UA-cam ;) Anyway, find me a topic where everyone agrees with her score. It does not exist. PS Sorry for my bad english ;)
50 cars and you can't even tune or upgrade them....Graphics are the only thing this game has going for it. Even the racing looks stale, and a speed penalty system that doesn't even work right lol
I'm a ps4 owner and I think this game did a lot better than I had initially thought. The lack of cars and customization is what pulled me away... But maybe I'll rent it and give it a try
I think people need to understand how rating systems work before they complain about the score: 10-Masterpiece 9-Fantastic 8-Great 7-Good 6-Above Average 5-Average 4-Below Average 3-Bad 2-Atrocious 1-Burn it! It's not school where 6 is bad, people.
I'm a car enthusiast and a big fan of any car racing game. But just watching this I can see it deserves that 5 from gamespot. It's like one of those racing games on cel phones with better graphics.
after playing forza horizon 3,man any racing game feels worse and unplayable, don't get me wrong I'm not an xbox fanboy or anything,i just lovvveeeee forza horizon, there's something about that game that just no other game has ever achieved
the camera behind my car locks onto the car and its annoying as hell, how can i turn it off it happens every time i press L3 slightly wen making hard turns.
Cons: 1. Loss of free content 2. Lack of environments ( unlike forza horizon 3 ) 3. Terrible vehicle collection 4. No customisation except vinyls 5. Most cars require micro transactions 6. Physics and mechanical damage are just above average
I have both PS4 & Xbox One, I am a PlayStation fan at heart but I can't even deny how amazing Forza Horizon 2 is, one of the best driving games by far & Driveclub will not be better. That said as a racing game & car enthusiast I also can't wait to play the beautiful Driveclub. Amen!
Whatever this game was when it launched, it's not that anymore. Despite some minor issues, I'm having a blast. Also, this is easily the best looking racer I've seen, and I've had almost all.
Got the game for "free" when I bought ps4. Was pretty frustrating and more like pretty game but bad mechanics or driving. Things changed tho in past year n half...enjoying it a lot now
***** there is a wide variety of cars no. There isnt supposed to be customization because it is meant to be an even game. That way no matter who you are racing against, the same type of cars will be even across the board. Crash physics - it is meant to be that way because it is a racing game. Being able to crash and get halted by a tree or falling off a cliff would be a problem. If you are taking a corner and someone rams you off of a cliff you would be pissed. This game isnt what youre looking for but it is the best racing game on the console thus far
***** At least 40% of the cars in Forza games are slight variations of cars kind of like how Gran Turismo does with Nissan GT-R R34, also, the way Driveclub's single player mode works allows you to actually end up using all or most of the cars since they are stock only. I honestly am not a fan of the track list in Forza 6. It would have been better if it was a mix of real and fictional tracks like in Gran Turismo. The single player in Forza and Driveclub are too different to compare in my opinion both are good. Forza 6's 60 fps is nice though I will give it that. Forza 6 is a good game but what bothers me is that it doesn't get updates like how other racing games do only because there will just be a new Forza Motorsport in two years. It's because of this that Forza has lost its personality. Forza 4 will always be my favorite racing game, but right now the FM games are not that good.
***** I know FM7 comes out this year, I was just speaking in the context of when FM6 came out. Forza definitely has more to offer. They have been making Forza games for over 10 years. Driveclub was a completely new IP for Evolution Studios and they have done a lot with it. Hopefully Forza 7 is good
+Ben Abbott yup, sorry dude only PART and only a VERY SMALL PART at that is free, you'll find yourself not able to do much of anything and will have to purchase the full game like i did today for 24.99
Rezalion There are many quality cars but if you're making a racing game with limited number of cars, you choose to include a Golf over an LFA or GTR? That's bad.
I hope they make a GRID racing game for next gen consoles, I love that Series of Games have all 3, Codemasters makes really great racing games with the best replay visuals I've seen so far
In this Current Gen class in 2014 is the highest graphics programmer ray tracing placed in the base game not in the hardware. Environment effects and the best game gameplay, very realistic.
First of all forza has been much better received than driveclub And second you put your precious PS4 master race behind tye xbone VCR ! Learn how to use >< and stop being a fanboy
This new Gran turismo game better be great or im buying an xbox 1. Im sick of sony not producing better racing games. And Microsoft produces 2 fantastic racing games. Wtf sony
You can tell when the Xbots are jealous as they get extremely hostile in the comments, kinda pathetic but then again Xbox users are around 12 years old
I enjoy the game, it was worth the money to me, I just wish there were more handling options so I could make the game less arcadey. Compared to making the whole game, it can't take that long to add handling options depending on the type on player you are
Well, err, actually Driveclub got mediocre reviews and the developers Evolution Studios got shut down not long after this game, while Forza Horizon 3 and 4 went on to be 2 of the best received racing games of the last 10 years. So Forza pretty much buried Driveclub really.
People this game is totally different than Forza Horizon 2 one is a track based game the other is an open world game where you can drive anywhere you want. Games that have came out or will be debuting soon that are tracked base for both next gen consoles are as follows 1. Forza Motorsports 5 2. Drive Club 3. Project Cars now Racing games that are open world 1. Need For Speed Rivals 2. Forza Horizon 2 3. The Crew. So stop comparing track based racing games to open world racing games. This fanboyisms is getting out of control and let people buy and play what they want to buy and play and grow the f*ck up.
Yes but Forza Motorsport 5 is still far better than this and it was a launch title. The graphics on this are stunning though but the gameplay and lack of content suckss balllls. 7.9 is a joke, I think a 6 is fair.
Then why is Driveclub claimed to be the "Forza killer?" Lol but i do agree. They are different racers. It just looks very bad on Driveclub for all the hype people gave it, plus that Forza killer quote.
I disagree with the reviewer regarding the car selection bias. It is FANTASTIC to have a Euro-centric car collection instead of the relentlessly Japanese nature of the Gran Turismo slate.
There really is enough room, and room for plenty more while we're at it. I loved my time with Forza 5, a game that is a far bigger technical and artistic achievement than people give it credit for, but after a while running the same tracks in the same conditions does start to feel confining - yeah, even when that means classic F1 cars on the Nurburgring. So along comes Horizon - the game that seems purposely built for everything I love about racing games - not just racing, but the driving - the getting to know the car at every level, from milling around the waterfront, to cruising down the coast, to full tilt apex nailing circuit races and in-traffic street races and hell, even kangaroo hopping over hills while classical blasts out your rain-soaked windows. But dammit if every time I lost a race in Horizon I thought that maybe it was my tune, or my upgrades, or maybe if I didn't have to focus on the minimap I could fully commit myself to the immediacy of the race right in front of me, and maybe if that one bump in the off-road track didn't send me careening to the left instead of the right, and hey - did that AI miss a checkpoint? And why are the AI cars so perfectly grounded and stable at speed? Then I play DriveClub. No frills indeed. Just a quick and unobtrusive menu that puts you on one of several gloriously detailed, expansive and yet linear tracks, in a matter of seconds. There you battle with the AI through every turn - it has nothing to do with tunes, or upgrades, or cheating AI or spreading your focus upon a mini-map as well as the next apex and your course through the AI cars that'll break too early - you're purely focused on the race and you know its do-able if you take the right line and if you push it just a little farther than you did last time, but the risk in that doing so just may lose the whole race for you. That's not old fashioned - that's the very heart of racing distilled into the moment to moment of it. All of these games have their place, and they all have such wildly different offerings and strengths, we shouldn't be in a rush to crown one of them king and expect all the others to fall in line. So far, this generation, every single racing game I've played has brought something amazing to the table, from NFS: Rivals - my surprise hit of launch - to Forza Motorsport 5 and Horizon 2 and my current addiction in DriveClub. There's plenty of room. Revel in it
This is really good buy for 20$ which include season pass Plus 7$ extra if you want 2 Jaguar concept cars , Civic and Skyline.( Not included with season pass ☹️ ) This is one of best looking racing games of Ps4. I hated the game first but once I started playing with Super and Hypercars in heavy rain the game blew me away. No game available now will give a visual of driving in heavy rain like driveclub The tracks are beautiful especially Japan and Norway. Don't compare it to other games, it is little hard for Arcade game but bad physics to be a sim. If you treat Driveclub as visual masterpiece with basic physics and gameplay you will not be disappointed.😀
Imagine if you had Driveclub's graphics, Gran Turismo's physics, Project Cars' mechanical damage, and Forza's game design and customization.
Now that would be the greatest racing game of ALL TIME!

Driveclub isn't a bad racing sim by any means. I bought it for $7.00 on PS Plus so I'm not really complaining
the season pass is only 20, im downloading it rn

Can u guys explain Season Pass? Why do you need a season pass for a game u buy?

Alien Isolation is a more divisive game than this where some people like it, some people don't... on the flip side games that involve cars which Luke dislikes are few and far between.
alien isolation is a re skinned outlast
Alien Isolation tried something different? How so? It was just a game of cat and mouse. I have no idea how that could feel new.
What you are talking about is essentially should game be awarded just because it tries to be different? If reviews were some kind of award system, then you could say so, but they are not. Reviews are there for customers to make buying decisions.
But really. Review scores in general are stupid. The actual meat of the evaluation for you should come from the text, or example reviewer/previewer from youtube. Video or text should tell you will YOU like the game.
It shouldn't matter does the reviewer like it or not. It should only be about you being able to trust the reviewer and bringing out relevant info in balanced way.
Troyshaun That with the fact that IGN rushed through the game to get their review going.
It is driving at its best in a video game, but what really holds it back for me is a the lack of cars. Luckily for me I love European cars, but for this type of game it really needs a large car selection to shine.
After playing the game my fears have been put to rest. The realism and control is so absorbing that i can imagine playing this game for many, many hours.
Is it worth buying this game in 2020?
This is probably one of the best racing games for current gen consoles
It really isn't. Last gen games were far better than this hollowed out, featureless tech demo.
next gen, not current gen
+Gavin Ok Current Gen: PS4, XBox One. Last Gen: PS3, Xbox 360. Update your info, bro.
sorry bro, but I'll keep referring to PS4 as a next gen console like everybody else
Gavin Ok Nobody refers to it as next gen...because they aren't. Except for you, of course.
5 year and Driveclub still looks and sounds the best
1 American car and no Japanese cars? That's really lame, probably a deal-breaker for me.
Amen to that
I say : DLC coming soon... More $$ ;)
This game is so awesome. Definitely a great showcase of the PS4’s power in the early years of its lifecycle. Wish they would’ve made a sequel.
Lol
@@Liakos_sapranidis This game was made in the year 2014 to beat the new graphics racing games in 2022
@@axel8427 no I'm making fun of the fact that this guy is making fun of sony
Honestly, how does IGN even come up with 7.9 as a score...
What score would you give it?
Forza horizon 2: 9.0
Driveclub: 7.9
......yea totally a forza killer
Only 50 cars haha forza H2 200+ and open world I'm not a fanboy but what would u chose is they was on both systems?
I'd choose GT5 1000+ cars
Gol. D Rodger Or GT6 with 1200+ cars ;)
So your willing to go back to PS3 with crapy graphics but playstation fanboys only care about graphics
1000+ cars in gt6 and all of them sound like vacuum cleaners . 😂
Gol. D Rodger
Vacuum Turismo 5
When will drive Club racing come back online.
Most likely never sadly
Never
This game offers one of most enjoyable multiplayer racing experience of present time.
If driveclub became openworld and cars could be modified forza horizon would be dead and gone
Lies
@@shinobiblade2558 you know it stop being a toxic fanboy
Driveclub is dead the studio got shut down and servers are closed 😂😂 forza is here to stay you playstation fanboy 😂
Ignore every single thing you've heard about this game, hear or elsewhere, good or bad, the developers have continued to work on this game non-stop and it is now simply FANTASTIC! End of story! Btw, it's the best looking racer in existence, bar none, full stop!!!
they should really update this review
The graphics are identical to Forza Motorsport 5's and the driving mechanics suck ass never mind the strict rules that they have against slamming into other players etc when it is an 'arcade racer'
+Shaydew Teh Hegdhug You should remove the fanboy filter from your eyes. DriveClub is the best looking console racer to date.
Every unrealistic racing game with combat or color > Every racing simulator released every year
You guys can fight all you want, you ain't gonna kill my good time with this game
Bahaha how much did you get paid for this review? This game is terrible. After watching numerous reviews and twitch streamers I'm so glad I didn't buy a copy. One guy even quit in the middle of his stream cause the tire screeching was so annoying. I'll stick to FH2 all day. This game was hyped up so much and I'm quite disappointed that it was this big of a let down.
"hyped up so much" umm whaaat? So in comparison to a game like GTA V, how much hype was there for that game? "hyped up so so so so much much"?? Seriously, how stupid. If you thought it was a let down then clearly you were someone hyping up the game... I didn't think the game was going to be great and so I am not disappointed.
***** Forza horizon was a new IP. The new one is the first sequel. Although it has the forza name, horizon was made by a new studio and is different to the standard forza's.
The same is true for users comments.... some people are payed for saying shit on reviews/Forums etc... And that is true.
Anyway, the score system is shit in general. Why ? All people do not have the same opinion in this world.
It gives a score of 7.9 and I do not know this guy and these tastes in terms of games.
The best way for talking about a game is was TotalBiscuit make on UA-cam ;)
Anyway, find me a topic where everyone agrees with her score. It does not exist.
PS Sorry for my bad english ;)
But this game wasn't hyped up at all though. And tbh i wasn't expecting much from it. Racing games have very little to offer nowadays.
Fan boy detected. Doesn't even have ps4 yet you review the game lol
First good review on this game. Just honest and not biased .
*RIP Xbone.*
I'm pretty sure it's still kicking.
Well, last time I checked, which was at least a minute ago. :|
Forza horizon 2 dumbass lol
Phil Spencer Then why are you watching Driveclub videos instead of playing Forza? Smh...
Phil Spencer Because it's not out until Friday here in the UK...
***** dude that was friday last week...when it was released in the uk
Ign has the best reviews I think keep up the good work
50 cars and you can't even tune or upgrade them....Graphics are the only thing this game has going for it. Even the racing looks stale, and a speed penalty system that doesn't even work right lol
I'm a ps4 owner and I think this game did a lot better than I had initially thought. The lack of cars and customization is what pulled me away... But maybe I'll rent it and give it a try
I think people need to understand how rating systems work before they complain about the score:
10-Masterpiece
9-Fantastic
8-Great
7-Good
6-Above Average
5-Average
4-Below Average
3-Bad
2-Atrocious
1-Burn it!
It's not school where 6 is bad, people.
I'm a car enthusiast and a big fan of any car racing game. But just watching this I can see it deserves that 5 from gamespot. It's like one of those racing games on cel phones with better graphics.
after playing forza horizon 3,man any racing game feels worse and unplayable, don't get me wrong I'm not an xbox fanboy or anything,i just lovvveeeee forza horizon, there's something about that game that just no other game has ever achieved
the camera behind my car locks onto the car and its annoying as hell, how can i turn it off
it happens every time i press L3 slightly wen making hard turns.
Cons:
1. Loss of free content
2. Lack of environments ( unlike forza horizon 3 )
3. Terrible vehicle collection
4. No customisation except vinyls
5. Most cars require micro transactions
6. Physics and mechanical damage are just above average
I have both PS4 & Xbox One, I am a PlayStation fan at heart but I can't even deny how amazing Forza Horizon 2 is, one of the best driving games by far & Driveclub will not be better. That said as a racing game & car enthusiast I also can't wait to play the beautiful Driveclub. Amen!
It is a good game but people are always attracted to the negatives therefore making the game look bad.
"7.9" Score for those who don't wanna watch the video
Whatever this game was when it launched, it's not that anymore. Despite some minor issues, I'm having a blast. Also, this is easily the best looking racer I've seen, and I've had almost all.
This is hands down the best racing game that ever existed
Lies
@@shinobiblade2558 name a better racing game
@@fintan. forza horizon 4
I noticed that the tyres got slippery when there was heavy rain.
so nobody thinks midnight club LA was any good? id drop money on that game instantly
Dude I 100% agree
But they stopped coz it wasn't making much money compared the their other games
Was riddled with bugs upon launch, but they should have ironed them out by now.
Got the game for "free" when I bought ps4. Was pretty frustrating and more like pretty game but bad mechanics or driving. Things changed tho in past year n half...enjoying it a lot now
Are the race tracks in drive club based on real life tracks, or the developers just made their own tracks??
We had gran turismo, Need for speed, and Forza, I think driveclub is a great start for next generation racing games
No subtitles for this video? I cant understand a fucken word this mate is saying
I can
god i love australia
Is it just a race game or can u drive freely like the crew
Just bought drive club soooooooooooooooooo exited
***** lol why exactly is it garbage?
***** there is a wide variety of cars no. There isnt supposed to be customization because it is meant to be an even game. That way no matter who you are racing against, the same type of cars will be even across the board.
Crash physics - it is meant to be that way because it is a racing game. Being able to crash and get halted by a tree or falling off a cliff would be a problem. If you are taking a corner and someone rams you off of a cliff you would be pissed.
This game isnt what youre looking for but it is the best racing game on the console thus far
*****
At least 40% of the cars in Forza games are slight variations of cars kind of like how Gran Turismo does with Nissan GT-R R34, also, the way Driveclub's single player mode works allows you to actually end up using all or most of the cars since they are stock only. I honestly am not a fan of the track list in Forza 6. It would have been better if it was a mix of real and fictional tracks like in Gran Turismo. The single player in Forza and Driveclub are too different to compare in my opinion both are good. Forza 6's 60 fps is nice though I will give it that. Forza 6 is a good game but what bothers me is that it doesn't get updates like how other racing games do only because there will just be a new Forza Motorsport in two years. It's because of this that Forza has lost its personality. Forza 4 will always be my favorite racing game, but right now the FM games are not that good.
*****
I know FM7 comes out this year, I was just speaking in the context of when FM6 came out.
Forza definitely has more to offer. They have been making Forza games for over 10 years. Driveclub was a completely new IP for Evolution Studios and they have done a lot with it. Hopefully Forza 7 is good
Appy OnE it's absolutely shit on ps4
If this guy handled all the video reviews, I would watch IGN more often. His voice is so soothing and perfect.
XD a 7.9
I think the guy was playing something else.
I really like Driveclub having a lot of fun with it.
free on ps plus! thank you very much!
No, part of the game is free
+Ben Abbott yup, sorry dude only PART and only a VERY SMALL PART at that is free, you'll find yourself not able to do much of anything and will have to purchase the full game like i did today for 24.99
oh really? i havent played it yet ive been busy with other games. thats pretty dissapointing
don't judge tho, a great game on sale, definetly not worth the 59.99 they charge for full price, so this PS plus deal for 24.99 is well worth it
+Ayza I got it for 20 dollars and it came with the season pass and all add onns
No Lexus LFA, Nissan GTR, Dodge Viper, Corvette Stingray, but the VW Golf made it.
Golf is a quality car but i can't believe this shit 50 just isn't enough for 40 buckz
Rezalion There are many quality cars but if you're making a racing game with limited number of cars, you choose to include a Golf over an LFA or GTR? That's bad.
Forza 5: 8.8 review
Driveclub: 7.9 review
Both reviews were biased as hell.
Madgegames Not according to metacritic, in fact IGN gave a higher than average score.
***** I never said they did, I decided not to buy this game when it got delayed last year.
the damage control in this review is amazing!!!!!!
I hope they make a GRID racing game for next gen consoles, I love that Series of Games have all 3, Codemasters makes really great racing games with the best replay visuals I've seen so far
In this Current Gen class in 2014 is the highest graphics programmer ray tracing placed in the base game not in the hardware. Environment effects and the best game gameplay, very realistic.
Forza Horizon 2>>> Driveclub
think ill just wait for the crew :D
Driveclub > Forza gay horizon 2
PS4 masterrace < XBONE VCR 144P
What about PC?
At least you were right on the first one
Shit U is away more powerful than PC. Just like VCR is away more powerful than XBONE 144p.
First of all forza has been much better received than driveclub
And second you put your precious PS4 master race behind tye xbone VCR !
Learn how to use >< and stop being a fanboy
9.7 is higher then 9.0, That make Driveclub away better than Forza gay horizon 2. Another win for PS4.
I got an ad with drive club in it and thought it was the video XD
Game looks nice, might get it.
I have forza 5 and that game blows this away without even trying it looks incredible and yes its 1080p and 60fps just like this but better way better
Forza killer? Yeah, I don't think so.
Phil Spencer Yes, unfortunately because this game was so shit, it killed my mother.
To me it is, because I like how the game feels better than forza.
It is graphically
I can't believe they had the nerve to actually say that.
Cameron Thacker Ok now you are just being a fanboy... Here, enjoy the truth: www.gamersyde.com/hqstream_driveclub_canada_reverse_no_hud-33198_en.html
I have it but haven't tried it yet looks pretty cool
This new Gran turismo game better be great or im buying an xbox 1. Im sick of sony not producing better racing games. And Microsoft produces 2 fantastic racing games. Wtf sony
Ikr
I do not much about graphics and sounds but one thing that I am sure is that there is a wide collection of cars available in the game.
You can tell when the Xbots are jealous as they get extremely hostile in the comments, kinda pathetic but then again Xbox users are around 12 years old
WHAT? No American or Japanese cars? What the hell were they thinking??!! That's a deal breaker right from the start.
I own more cars on Forza horizon 2 than drive clubs whole car list.
How many DLCs did you buy for that?
***** It would be 0 because there isn't any DLC out for FH2 yet.
I'm waiting for that paywall.
FH2 is an arcade game while DC is simcade... they are totally different. or do you compare nfs to Fm5? boooring...
me too, and i like sim racing games like iracing and rfactor. but fh2 is arcade and dc is simcade, if you say the opposite, then you never tried dc...
I enjoy the game, it was worth the money to me, I just wish there were more handling options so I could make the game less arcadey. Compared to making the whole game, it can't take that long to add handling options depending on the type on player you are
It's wrong when you said there are no japanese cars in the game, they do have NISSAN cars
They didn’t back in the day.
At that time ... It was kinda bad ...but after releasing updates and patches ... Man gotta say that it is the best racing game ever
I have an Xbox one a ps4 and a PC so I can't be called a fanboy so with that said drive club isn't a good game
Fanboy.
Honesty is hard to come by these days.
It is now 11 dollars definately getting it.
Forza: the most grossing game of the century
Driveclub: I’m gonna ruin this mans whole career
Yea don't think so 😂
Well, err, actually Driveclub got mediocre reviews and the developers Evolution Studios got shut down not long after this game, while Forza Horizon 3 and 4 went on to be 2 of the best received racing games of the last 10 years. So Forza pretty much buried Driveclub really.
@@ashleythomas4112 Ok
I must admit, the soundtrack is quite good.
People this game is totally different than Forza Horizon 2 one is a track based game the other is an open world game where you can drive anywhere you want. Games that have came out or will be debuting soon that are tracked base for both next gen consoles are as follows 1. Forza Motorsports 5 2. Drive Club 3. Project Cars now Racing games that are open world 1. Need For Speed Rivals 2. Forza Horizon 2 3. The Crew. So stop comparing track based racing games to open world racing games. This fanboyisms is getting out of control and let people buy and play what they want to buy and play and grow the f*ck up.
Forza horizon 2 is a open world game...
Finally someone says it.
Yes but Forza Motorsport 5 is still far better than this and it was a launch title. The graphics on this are stunning though but the gameplay and lack of content suckss balllls. 7.9 is a joke, I think a 6 is fair.
Then why is Driveclub claimed to be the "Forza killer?" Lol but i do agree. They are different racers. It just looks very bad on Driveclub for all the hype people gave it, plus that Forza killer quote.
I disagree with the reviewer regarding the car selection bias. It is FANTASTIC to have a Euro-centric car collection instead of the relentlessly Japanese nature of the Gran Turismo slate.
There really is enough room, and room for plenty more while we're at it.
I loved my time with Forza 5, a game that is a far bigger technical and artistic achievement than people give it credit for, but after a while running the same tracks in the same conditions does start to feel confining - yeah, even when that means classic F1 cars on the Nurburgring.
So along comes Horizon - the game that seems purposely built for everything I love about racing games - not just racing, but the driving - the getting to know the car at every level, from milling around the waterfront, to cruising down the coast, to full tilt apex nailing circuit races and in-traffic street races and hell, even kangaroo hopping over hills while classical blasts out your rain-soaked windows.
But dammit if every time I lost a race in Horizon I thought that maybe it was my tune, or my upgrades, or maybe if I didn't have to focus on the minimap I could fully commit myself to the immediacy of the race right in front of me, and maybe if that one bump in the off-road track didn't send me careening to the left instead of the right, and hey - did that AI miss a checkpoint? And why are the AI cars so perfectly grounded and stable at speed?
Then I play DriveClub. No frills indeed. Just a quick and unobtrusive menu that puts you on one of several gloriously detailed, expansive and yet linear tracks, in a matter of seconds. There you battle with the AI through every turn - it has nothing to do with tunes, or upgrades, or cheating AI or spreading your focus upon a mini-map as well as the next apex and your course through the AI cars that'll break too early - you're purely focused on the race and you know its do-able if you take the right line and if you push it just a little farther than you did last time, but the risk in that doing so just may lose the whole race for you. That's not old fashioned - that's the very heart of racing distilled into the moment to moment of it.
All of these games have their place, and they all have such wildly different offerings and strengths, we shouldn't be in a rush to crown one of them king and expect all the others to fall in line.
So far, this generation, every single racing game I've played has brought something amazing to the table, from NFS: Rivals - my surprise hit of launch - to Forza Motorsport 5 and Horizon 2 and my current addiction in DriveClub. There's plenty of room. Revel in it
Man u wrote so much and absolutely no one cares abt this lol
Forza horizon 5 is amazing
This is really good buy for 20$ which include season pass
Plus 7$ extra if you want 2 Jaguar concept cars , Civic and Skyline.( Not included with season pass ☹️ )
This is one of best looking racing games of Ps4.
I hated the game first but once I started playing with Super and Hypercars in heavy rain the game blew me away.
No game available now will give a visual of driving in heavy rain like driveclub
The tracks are beautiful especially Japan and Norway.
Don't compare it to other games, it is little hard for Arcade game but bad physics to be a sim.
If you treat Driveclub as visual masterpiece with basic physics and gameplay you will not be disappointed.😀
