  • Driving Game for Mac?

    Posted on June 10th, 2009 servbit2 No comments

    I want to set up a driving game for my G3 with steering wheel and foot pedals. What is the best software and who sells it online?

    What kind of steering wheel and pedals do you have? I have a Thrustmaster T2 from way back when, which offers pretty basic function, but unfortunately doesn’t work with my favorite driving game - Carmageddon. Carmageddon is not exactly something you want children to be playing, and a demo is available online to get a taste for it. For “real” driving I’ve been pretty happy with my NASCAR 2 program - its really a racing simulator, and gets into the nitty gritty, but by today’s standards its pretty low resolution graphics. But it sure is cool being able to talk to the pit via microphone using voice recognition. There are few driving games out there for the mac. Racing Days R is another mac game (mac only, at that!) that was pretty fun, but more simplistic and still with rougher graphics than modern PC games. My recommendation? For reckless driving, Carmageddon, but may not work with steering wheel (has to translate into keypresses) - start with demo first. for serious simulation, NASCAR. For fun arcade -style, Racing Days R. Have fun, and drive safely! (except Carmageddon, of course). Oh, and online shopping: at shopper.com you’ll find NASCAR2, Carmageddon. Racing Days R, your best bet is directly from www.feral.co.uk - it seems they have a distributor in Iceland, but not US or Canada. If you’re dying to have it, I actually have it and don’t play it anymore.
