Forza Horizon 3 is amazing, worth the purchase of an xbox alone imo

I need to get this now since they added DFGT support on PC.

Is there anything besides "The Crew 2" to look forward to in terms of arcade racers for the PS4? Project Cars 2 and Gran Turismo are sims. I guess Need for Speed might be good this year?
There's a number of indie arcade racers slated for PS4 but like with many indies, who knows when they will actually release.Is there anything besides "The Crew 2" to look forward to in terms of arcade racers for the PS4?

I'm sorry.You people didn't buy Blur and now here we are.
Where the fuuuuuuuuuck is Distance (PS4)???
I'm sorry.
I bought Split/Second instead.
They presumably want to finish their singleplayer campaign, whenever that happens
If it ever happens
99% of the fun of that game is mod support, though, which I imagine they'd have trouble doing on the PS4.
Exactly that....I just wanna race on cool tracks with cool cars with tight 60fps controls. That's all...I ask for.
WHERE THE FUCK IS MY RIDGE RACER, BAMCO?Ridge Racer 8 is coming out for PS4....
...IN MY DREAMS
I recently realised how dire the situation is this gen when I found myself seriously considering buying Cars 3
The arcade games that already exist but aren't given home ports upset me more than non existant games not being made.
H2Overdrive, the Batman racing game, Cruisn Blast, Dirty Drivin, Overtake (this gives me split second vibes), Daytona USA 3
..
Sega Race TV, Initial D, Battle Gear 4, R Tuned etc etc.
Going back further, Scud Race and Daytona USA 2. Dirt Dash, Rave Racer, proper 60fps versions of Ridge Racer etc.
Driveclub and Forza Horizon are in no way shape or form arcade racers. Perhaps they are to the sim fans who consider anything not 100% realistic to be "arcade" but such definitions have no place in a discussion of arcade games among people who actually have a clue about arcade games.
Well at least we'll have another chance with that SEGA World Drivers Championship game...
Pretty much this. To be fair, the game released close to bigger titles like COD I believe. Bad move by Blizzard.
If you are looking for arcade racers with tons of content an variety you have to take a look at "Forza: Horizon" 2 and 3.

I never play racing simulators, yet I don't consider Driveclub that different from the arcade racers I've played in the PS1/2 days and in the actual arcade halls. You can also play it pretty much like a demolition racer if you want to. The only major difference is the absence of time-limited checkpoints, but even something like WipEout doesn't have them.
Preach!Forza Horizon isn't an arcade racer.
Open worlds were one of the nails in the coffin of arcade racers on consoles/pc. I was never a big fan of Burnout from 3 onwards (too much emphasis on crashing) or Need for Speed but I sure had a lot more fun racing the focused tracks of Hot Pursuit than the open worlds of NFS Most Wanted, Burnout Paradise or NFS Rivals.
Driveclub seems to me to be a sim with certain driving assists enabled.
It seems like a fundamentally different experience than Ridge Racer, Sega Rally, Neo Drift Out, Outrun 2, Daytona 1 and 2, Scud Race, and all the other stylised "easy to pick up, difficult to master" arcade games that barely gave a thought to the actual physics of car racing and concerned themselves mainly with being fun.
It's a matter of perception, but I bought Driveclub and Driveclub VR and honestly I don't enjoy it and believe it's "diet sim" which for an arcade fan is a long long way from "arcade".
For many sim fans anything that isnt 100 percent realistic is "arcade".

Last time I checked development of PC version was proceeding... I don't know anything about console versions.I miss the genre so much. These kickstarter projects are taking forever. Horizon Chase was confirmed for PS4 in 2015 and nothing since. Wtf fuck is going on.
I still want to know where he gets the money for everything. And despite me being a little active in the Australian retro gaming scene (and knowing several others who are far more deeply invested) I've never really heard his name mentioned in conversation.Last Gamer (Joel) his 7 year old son plays OutRun 2 SP Arcade.

So awesome.
I envision father and son one day having a collection of every single arcade game ever made, in addition to having collections of every video & computer game made for every platform in existence. Joel already has the Guinness World Record of largest video game collection (17,466 games). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sjjGblGtiU&t=1s

Shame, I think he'd do well to share his collection to the broader community.
Sequel? Was that the Kickstarter one a while ago? Cancelled??? :<Arcade Racer or not, doesn't matter, Forza Horizon 3 has been my racing Lord and Savior this gen. I do miss Blur and Burnout as well, but FH3 smokes them. It's entirely different than racing Sims like GT or Driveclub.
Sucks they cancelled the Rollcage sequel.
Bring back Jet Moto!
I wished that game controlled better.
My favorite Arcade racer of 6th gen.
Auto Modellista by Capcom, I loved how the cars in this game felt alive and the sense of Speed was well done.
A current gen version of this game would look amazing~
