Best arcade racing game

I couldn't agree more with Samuel P. the other poster, it IS a great game! If you think otherwise then you're either not playing it long enough or you're comparing it to a racing simulator which is wrong on both accounts.

Comparing The Crew to games like Asseto Corsa or iRacing is like comparing apples to oranges, yes they're both fruit but taste and feel completely different and you also eat them different too.

If you just bought this or you stopped playing it for whatever reason (still amazing for a 3 yr old game), try playing PVP(player vs player) public and/or private or the Summit races or the faction missions or the police chases or be the police and do the chasing (dlc Calling All Units). Or even take a long scenic drive along Miami beach or the California coastline. The U.S. map is a whopping 1,948 sq miles compared to Just Cause 2 which is a mere 400 sq mi. In other words the replay value is tremendous for an arcade racer!

Yea the rear view and side mirrors are faux and the graphics may not be as crisp as Driveclub and the steering physics may not be as responsive as Project Cars or GT Sport but Ubisoft tried to encompass the entire driving/racing experience in 1 game. And for that they succeeded! Well done Ubisoft now buckle up for TC2 coming in March '18!!
