A gamer's guide to car racing games

Are you a games fan who is in love with their console and who burns the tarmac on car racing games? Well, the first driving games ever made were based on simple pixels where the automobiles on screen were just a couple of dots. In recent times, driving simulation video games have amazing graphics and gamers are asked to perform a range of vehicle tricks and stunts. Taito's Astro Race was the first major car racing game and since then a genre of driving computer games was spawned. Best-selling driving game titles on the shelves include Sony's Gran Turismo, the fast-paced Grand Theft Auto free-roaming range and the Nintendo classic, Mario Kart, made by Shigeru Miyamoto. The most important gaming brands to sell driving sim games are Atari, Namco, Microsoft and Rockstar. The secret to winning at driving sim games is to get lots of practise in a particular car and you should have a console controller you find easy to use.
