I think they still have issues at the emulation so many maybe haven’t had the chance but Project Gotham racing as a series is great. If youve liked modern GRIDs I highly suggest them.
My go to would be Burnout3, revenge, or dominator.
More modern probably Forza horizon but the formula is running a bit long for me.
Art of Rally mixes fun arcadey accessibility with realistic handling for a fun stylish experience imo.
I love Dirt Rally 2. Oddly enough I’m not too good at it but it becomes a sort of groundhog day simulator as I continue to comically fuck up a run and reset to try and hit tight timing windows and optimize, resulting in a wave of excitement when it all culminates to eventually pushing me over the finish line

Burnout 3: Takedown was my favorite. I had so much fun playing that game both solo and with my friends online. Burnout: Paradise never captured the same feeling for me, though.
The same team made Dangerous Driving and Danger Zone 1&2. The first is like the race mode of B3, and the second is like the crash simulator mode. Unfortunately, they are separate games, and neither are as polished nor do they have the good sound track.
Assetto Corsa is a fantastic simulator that me and my race team has used to learn a track before we take our race car there so we know all the turns. It really feels like you’re there and the game runs well and looks good low end hardware.
i am a diehard for old school SEGA sprite-scaling racers. OutRun, OutRunners, Super Hang-On, GP Rider, and Power Drift are all must-plays. they all run great in MAME and have also had a number of high-quality console ports. later polygonal titles like SEGA Rally and Hang-On GP are also great but will be less impactful if you're already used to modern racing games
i see a few comments mentioning different F-Zero games and would like to throw F-Zero 99's hat into the ring. the sheer chaos of that game is really something you have to experience for yourself
Playing Colin McRay rally on linux with wiimote + wheel frame as a controller was the best time I’ve had with rally games. Both game and controller worked better than I expected and was easy setup for living room couch.
Old crap now, but later sequels nor Dirt didn’t give the same feel.
I have never played Destiny 2 and wanted to try it out one month ago. I asked on Reddit what to do as a free-to-play player to get a good insight of what the game has to offer.
The gatekeeping was unreal. They said unless I’m willing to dedicate hundreds of hours I should not even try and rather uninstall the game immediately. For sure they made it feel that new players are not welcome.
Playerbase toxicity was a harsh reality. The game story, even in the broadest sense, was hard to grasp. The new player experience in-game was miserable. I have no idea what their money making plan is. Live service games need new players to stay healthy.
Sounds like the community of every competitive (or coop campaign) multiplayer game I’ve ever been in. I prefer just to not play online multiplayer, I don’t have the time (or disposable income) to “git gud” enough to be able to even stand a chance against all the obsessed people who pour hundreds of hours into it in the first month and drive everyone else out.
It’s not gatekeeping, they were trying to save you. I still play from time to time and it’s… Not awful. But for a new player? I can’t even imagine. I’ve introduced 2 people to it and it’s several hours of explaining shit that bungo can’t be bothered to do. Then to kit yourself out to do anything other than basic strikes, it takes a shitload of grinding.
