I know. I know. Project CARS 2 came out in September of last year. What little dust Slightly Mad’s racing sim sequel kicked up has settled, and the rest of the game-playing world has moved on to bigger and better things. Monster Hunter World or Shadow of the Colossus, anyone? But Project CARS 2 has haunted me.
HIGH A great sense of speed and lovely visuals.
LOW The braindead, cheating, rubber-banding opponent AI.
WTF They sure do like phoning up this dude who never, ever talks.
HIGH Nailing a succession of corners at high speed without sliding off the bike like a total klutz.
LOW Encountering several nasty glitches within the first hour of turning it on.
WTF A game centered around going extremely fast has such glacial loading times?
HIGH The sandstorms are absolutely jaw-dropping.
LOW The bosses need more variety.
WTF Who thought releasing this on the same day as MGS V was a good idea?
HIGH The minimalist aesthetic is consistently lovely.
LOW The cars could stand to feel a bit grippier.
WTF The ending feels sudden and anticlimactic.
HIGH I still know the Battletoads jetbike level by heart, 20-ish years later.
LOW Gunfright. The entire thing.
WTF Battletoads Arcade? There are a bunch of better Battletoads games out there, Rare.
HIGH The look and feel of the driving
LOW The lack of customization and personality
WTF Limited modes make this seem like a budget title
HIGH California One.
LOW Karting.
WTF Getting an off-track penalty for taking a mandatory pit stop.
HIGH Flying a crop duster into a cargo plane, then riding a jeep out of it.
LOW The frustrating early mission that introduces the wonky drive-by mechanics.
WTF We're escaping a full-on military response by hopping onto a freakin' freight train?
