Racing the tracks in time trials is so fun. But once others cars get on the track it's not as fun. At least in my experience.
The game is flat out beautiful though.

Last year was challenging for WWE 2K15, as console generation transitions often are for sports sims. On top of the challenges that come with re-building an established franchise to meet the expectations that come with new hardware, Visual Concepts and Yukes opted to radically change the gameplay direction of the long-running wrestling series. It was a lot to handle, and while our WWE 2K15 review gave it a lot of credit for improving the depth and overall pacing of matches, there was a lot of missing meat in terms of the roster and feature set. After sitting down with 2K and Visual Concepts, it's clear that bridging that content gap while continuing to make matches feel more like the real thing is the gameplan for WWE 2K16.

DriveClub the Justin Bieber of racing games...sells well, looks pretty, but is really just a steamy turd wrapped in a heavily marketed package when it comes to talent.
Bring back Motorstorm!..the Nirvana of off-road arcade games...err, what?

I didn't like the Motorstorm games, but they were better than this. I wish they would've continued making the WRC games more than anything.
I loved the the first game. It deserved a direct sequel. Mafia 2 was a decent game; I enjoyed the graphics and Nvidia physx. I was hoping some consistency in the Mafia story. The 3rd looks to be going to an entirely different route from the previous iterations. I feel like the series is going the way that Call of Juarez went.

People don't like Justin Bieber not because he doesn't have talent. He has more musical talent than 99.9% of the population.
There are people with very little musical talent. Justin Bieber isn't one of them.
No, THL you are right he has musical talent. But compared to the other talented musicians out there he is pure garbage...just like DriveClub compared to other racing games. So yes, DC does have enough talent to be considered a racing game but comparatively speaking it doesn't hold up against its peers. Obviously this is opinion, I know many people that enjoy DC and many that sing along to "Baby, baby".
Deleted the game a while ago and haven't looked back. I'm sure at some point once I'm finished with Forza Horizon 2 and Forza 6 I will try this game again.
That's subjective though (obviously). Kinda begs the question of what "good" means. You can be technically proficient all day long, but if you can't translate that into a song people can listen or relate to, is it really "good" music?
It's like when I can respect the musician for his proficiency, but I can get bored of the music quickly. What I always loved about a band like Nirvana is that it's not some noodley guitar porn. Simplicity can be art, and I am often impressed at what can be done with pretty low-level ability if it's applied correctly.
My problem with Bieber, and many, many "artists" today, is that the music is largely just some formula. It says nothing and exists for people to dance to. The mental engagement isn't there. It's background motivation. Compare him to someone like John Mayer who has similar themes, but does them in a more personal, thought way. Of course he leverages his musical talents well, as well. I also like how he has turned himself around as a person, but that's a different story though.
As far as Drive Club... Graphics go a looong way, and that is the subject when people talk about the game. I've seen sooo many comments on Gaf about how someone "has" to pick up the game after the glut of screenshots people put out for it. It's photo mode seems to be pretty brilliant.
Still, what I have played of it myself informs me that it is fun enough to play. It certainly isn't horrible. I didn't think it looked as good as people lead me to believe.
Those swathy Italians never get represented well in games. They're always either crooks with vicious tendencies (Mafia, gta) or forever hounding hot bitches out of their league who aren't interested. (Mario)
Where did Mafia 2 go wrong? I never really played it, but I just youtubed some of it, and it looks beautiful for its day.

Heard it was too short and limited, and that short span was mostly dedicated to driving and talking.
Best looking racing game of all time. Borza Horimeh can't handle the the sheer amazity of Drive Club. F*ck, I just realized it's a combination of two of my favorite movie, Drive and Fight Club. Drive Club is Brad Pitt and Ryan Gosling hot. Win winner, chicken f*cker.
Back when the Xbox One first debuted, Microsoft heavily pushed its new console as the ultimate NFL device. It was a smart idea, as the National Football League is America's most-viewed sport by a large margin, but we haven't heard much about the NFL on Xbox One as of late. That's likely due to the games-first tack Microsoft has adopted since, but the developers at NFL and Microsoft haven't forgotten about Xbox's biggest sports app: game-changing updates are on their way.
The biggest new upgrade involves data pulled from micro-chipped players (hopefully the tech is in their uniforms and not under their skin)—or as Microsoft and the NFL are calling it, “Next-Gen Stats.” Thanks to those chips, the location and speed of every single player is being monitored, and can be used in some pretty amazing ways. During a demo of "Next-Gen Replay," I watched an instant replay on the upper-right hand of the screen shown in sync with moving icons representing each player. (It was very reminiscent of Doom's map moving simultaneously with the first-person lead.) When a wide receiver cut right on his route to get in position for a catch, so did the icon. When the replay restarted, the icons on the football field display did, too.
