NowGamer: "There might be a lot of problems surrounding DriveClub - mostly server issues stopping people from playing - but it's nice to step back and remember some of the good things, such as DriveClub's graphics."
Digital Foundry : Whether it's via FPS Boost or bespoke software upgrades, backwards compatibility on the current-gen consoles delivered an unexpected delight - the ability to liberate older console games from their 30fps limits, running them at 60 frames per second or even higher. FPS Boost did the business for Xbox Series consoles on an impressive range of titles, but there was always the sense that PS5 could do more. It's a hunch that checks out as a range of frame-rate unlocks are available for PS5, covering many must-have games - the major caveat being that only exploitable consoles running on older firmwares are invited to the party.
you love to see new life being breathed into older titles but damn the process to get there. It should be automatic that these work for everyone... not just those who exploit their systems. Really wish Sony and MS would keep this program going officially.
Damn this sucks. I want this shit so bad, but I’m not jailbreaking my console. And frankly I shouldn’t have to. I’m not a tech person, but is it really that hard for developers to unlock the framerate? Or would that have to be a large patch?
Yep, this sucks having to require a jailbreak for something that should be standard in our industry by now. I learned my lesson when PS4 was jailbroken and I didn't keep a console on low firmware for years, but now I'm holding onto two low firmware PS5s specifically because there are features I'll be able to do that you can't do on official firmware, so this will pay off for me soon enough.
Driveclub was a headline game at the start of the PS4’s life. A fabulous game – eventually - but what now, with the servers turned off? Is it worth your time? JDR starts its engines in today’s Brutal Backlog.
Bikes expansion might be one of the most underrated games of last gen. Incredible driver and bike animations + DC weather is craze.
Cultured Vultures: We won't stop until everyone appreciates how brilliant Driveclub is/was.
i went to the article and theres only a couple racing games, cant find the button to move page on through all the adverts.
Dirt rally doesn't even make the list? Errm OK then.
Driveclub is over rated as well, with middle of the road handling and the 30fps killed it upon arrival for me.
This game has come in for some criticism some justified plenty not, the server issue has been the major problem but that is working for me now (UK at least)
The graphics are amazing and some of the racing can get quite competitive even in single player, the quick go I have had at Multiplayer was frenetic but fun, can't wait for the weather and other upgrades.
As for the crashes my mate was playing it today managed to clip the kerb at speed and launched himself spectacularly LOL, impressive though
Oh stop it Abri... wait a minute, this is someone else!
On-topic, note how he leaves the road a few times and even totally rolls the car without incurring a single 3 second penalty. They're not as frequent as is often implied.
This crash looked terrific

I'm barely on my fourth or fifth race and I'm already struggling. Though the game may be lacking in content, the racing and handling is good, and the presentation is top rank status. The cars are very sexy, now we just need Japanese and Lamborghini and maybe some Geo, just kidding.
sooo...dont drive audi r8s?
