Nvidia increases performance in DIRT2 up to 89%

Fudzilla: "Nvidia has recently launched the latest version of its Geforce graphics driver, now in 196.21 with WHQL certification, which among other things brings SLI support to Dirt 2. You can check out this list and see just what games Nvidia aimed to improve. Today we'll talk only about Dirt 2, which is currently one of the most popular games and not to mention one of rare games that feature DirectX 11 support. Of course, you can play this game in DirectX 9 mode as well, so the fact that you might not own DX11 compliant hardware won't stop you from enjoying the game."

Play it online a lot with my G27

Bubbles_Kitty_Cat5204d ago

I love the game (looks incredible) but I am really getting sick of people that just try to ram everyone off the track the entire time.

It's just lame and ruins pretty much every racing game I have ever played.

steve30x5204d ago

No matter what racing game you play you will get people that ram you off the track on purpose. Thats why I rarely play online. Its just as bad no matter what type of game you play online.

Bubbles_Kitty_Cat5204d ago

Yup, it's just not worth my time to race my hardest for a bunch of laps, only to have it all be for nothing when some lowlife decides to take me out on the last lap.

Kurylo3d5204d ago

why would u not want to ram people... its what makes racing games fun. You can race in real life, ramming people ass you race makes it like a high speed chase... like an action movie

Letros5203d ago

Just start your own lobby and turn off collisions, its really annoying when that's all people do.

The best rally games of all time

What were the genre’s greatest entries ever?

Yi-Long3091d ago

For me, Rallisport Challenge 2 (Xbox) without a doubt. Amazing gameplay, and fantastic track-design and visuals.

Ashistheking3091d ago

the first dirt game was such a surprise :)

waltyftm3091d ago

Sega rally 2 on the Dreamcast was my favourite, still is the greatest imo.

10 Great Racing Games That You Can Play Right Now

ASidCast: "There are times when you’ve got a lot of free time and very few games that you’d wanna play. This is a list of great games that one must play regardless of how old they get, and not playing these would just be a sin for racing fans. Most of these games revolutionized their genre and probably created their own genre in the process, while some were just too advanced for their time. If in any case you missed these, then you better search for these games and play them for a fun dose of gaming history or as a new experience entirely. "

Bad list, but to each their own.

No Forza Horizon, Driveclub, Assetto Corsa, or Grid Autosport?

And if you can throw in Trials when its not a racing game, why is there no Rocket League?

C-H-E-F3099d ago (Edited 3099d ago )

what shocked me was two games I loved during the ps2 era

JUICED and Street Racing Syndicate, Need For Speed Hot Pursuit

Then you have Forza 3, GT5, and the others you named above... smh

edit: and crazy taxi and trails aren't even racers lOl

traumadisaster3099d ago

Bought Grid 1 on pc for 2.50 last week, playing that at 4k60fps will make you feel nuts for ever spending 100's on racing games.

nowitzki20043099d ago

Says the guy who payed 100's on his 4k rig to play a racing game /s.

JK, Im sure its amazing in 4k... Its amazing in 1080p too so I can only imagine. You should try Grid Autosport, I actually liked that better than Grid.

traumadisaster3099d ago

I'll get it in a couple of years for 2.50. After I beat grid 2 and about 5 other racers I have.

Nitromonteiro3099d ago

@nowitski2004: I chose Project CARS over Assetto Corsa as a personal opinion,and Grid 1 over Autosport because the first one was great 'for it's time', autosport was good but just not that great.
Rocket League would actually be the next game if could make a longer list,really sorry on that.

@C-H-E-F: Juiced and SRS,are you serious? These are the games that defines the genre?
Hot Pursuit 2010 was Burnout Paradise with licensed carswith cops and wasn't even a better game world.
Crazy Taxi wins on the mobile platform,there are very few racing games on mobile with a open world. And the few there are,arent as good as Crazy Taxi. And racing against the clock makes does it a racing game.
