Hope so

Less brain-dead First person rail shooters and more quality, realistic games

Hey, are you referring to the COD crazies??....if so, that's plain unfair, we don't truly know how many are retarded or just intoxicated, so there could well be legitimate reasons people keep buying the same game over and over again.

Anyone played this yet? Seems interesting, but unfortunately I only enjoy playing games that have decent graphics and a high level of realism.

I havent yet, but just know of it from the steeringwheels

rFactor2 is currently in a semi-open-get-your-wallet-out-beta at the moment as well, is it not?

Project CARS is advancing along very nicely, yes early build were a bit shaky but we are still in pre aplha

Also if you remember the Ferrari project from 2008 by Blimey studios, It's back Test Drive: Ferrari legends. It's done by SMS But don't be expecting a sim from this.

cars is looking really nice, just wish they would naturalize the image a bit, its too sterile and clean looking atm

Most of you probably know this place, but if not, there's quite a few video updates of Asseto Corsa from Gamescom.
