Sim, arcade, simcade, anything. I'm kinda disconnected from the genre and want to know what is considered the GOATs of racing games to try them out.

Me personally, I'd say Dirt Rally 2, very addicting gameplay.

Wipeout 2048 was my favourite of all time and is available in the Wipeout Omega Collection. I wouldn’t say that it’s better than the more recent titles but it was just the one that grabbed me.

I also really liked:

Dirt Rally was ace on the PSVR
Burnout Paradise
Need for Speed: Most Wanted (the second one)

2048 is so good. I love the teams each having three craft types. The tracks are really fun, with both wide sections where you can go flat out without a care, and narrow parts where you have to really thread the needle and use the airbrakes with total precision.

If you haven't already, check out BallisticNG. It's a retro style re-implementation of the classic WipEout physics, and the upcoming update will fully implement the 2048 physics mode.
