As much of one as Nascar is in my book 8)

Excellent additions though plus you should seek out the rod controller noise. I need to get one eventually too.

yeah I was thinking of getting one (before we play SoulCalibur for TR. :)). It is a great idea for a controller though.

NASCAR and other racing games I tend to just think of in their own category (personally).

As long as we're on the topic of NASCAR games, pick up the DC version of Daytona USA; it's really fun, and while I prefer the Saturn version just for its personality, the Dreamcast version is better in all respects.

it was actually one of the first DC games I bought the first week I owned one. I suck at it though. I've heard it much better with a wheel.

Have you tried the new DLC Daytona for XBLA or PSN? Interested in how they compare. I completely forgot about the DC version of that game.

I have not. It's rare I buy DLC games. I did get MvC2 for instance on PSN, but I didn't really like that port so felt somewhat jipped. Generally the only DLC games I buy are ones I can't get otherwise.

Championship Surfer is horrible, the controls suck and the difficulty curve is way to steep. When Kelly Slater came out for ps2 it was magic, love that game.

I believe UEFA Striker is the best football (soccer) game on the system. It's more realistic than the arcadey Virtua Striker games. However, compared to the ISS, Fifa and Pro Evo's, it doesn't really stand out as a great football (sorry, Soccer :P) game.
