What are the good racing games on the PS1 apart from Gran Turismo?

>>3088369
Ridge Racer 4 was my favorite, as well as the only racing game I ever cared for.

The best arcadey touge game on the PS1, and a predecessor to the Battle Gear series.
>>
>>3088383
>TOCA
I'm sorry anon, but those games were best played on PC.
>>
>>3088369
>apart from Gran Turismo
GT is not a racing game. Its speedo only shows joke units
>>
Gran Turismo 2
>>
>>3088851

There is no WTC on PC, and 1 and 2 are decent enough for a console simcade. I won't deny they're better on PC even though it was an ass to make them play on my computer when I tried years ago, I don't remember if I still using XP at the time or W7

The game is very low quality, indeed.
>>
Demolition Racer is a very underrated game.
>>
>>3089152
Road Rash was kinda meh after the 16-bit era,
but the rest of that list is such comfy.

>>3088928
Play the jap version?
>>
>>3089714
I don't speak moon. Does that even have kph?

My picks:

Ridge Racer Type 4
Rage Racer
Peak Performance
Thunder Truck Rally/Monster Trucks (although it's partly because of the goofy 90s techno)
Crash Team Racing
Colin McRae Rally 1 and 2
Gran Turismo 2
Test Drive Off-Road 3
Formula One Arcade
Micro Machines V3 and Micro Maniacs
TOCA World Touring Cars/Jarrett & Labonte Stock Car Racing
Runabout/Felony 11-79 and Runabout 2 (more of a mission-based type of thing)
NASCAR Rumble
Destruction Derby 1, 2 and Raw

>>3089707
I only know of that one because it's always on the "Games you may like" column for the page of any JP PS1 racer on GameFAQs.

Nobody talks about this game and it's one of the best.
It's the perfect amount of realism and arcade.

You can ride over the water sections at speed but if you slow down you sink for example. While you can also run over the animals for extra points. They don't show up often and are worth a lot.

Pretty killer soundtrack too. If you like late 90s music.
>>
Need for Speed 3 could be considered the one time a NFS game was any good.
>>
>>3089950
And High Stakes was even better.
>>
>>3089950
Best classics:
Hot Pursuit
Hot Pursuit 2 (Blackbox, PS2)

Best modern:
Most Wanted (Blackbox, 2005)

Honorable mentions:
High Stakes
Underground

Fun as vehicular combat:
Hot Pursuit (Criterion, 2010)
>>
>>3089942
Agreed. Got so much play time out of this as a kid.
>>
>>3088369
Destruction Derby 2

"Good" might be optimistic, but it's worth a try.
>>
>>3089325
Demolition Racer has great track designs and that's about it.
>>
>>3089309
Your bait is so stale you don't even get a pic
>>
road rash 3d

>>3090298
I really dug this game when I was a kid, it isn't the best balance wise but it is fun.

Ridge Racer Type 4 is not only the best arcade racer on the PS1, but it's possibly the best arcade racing game ever made.

>>3088694
I feel like Side By Side and Battle Gear will never click with me. Something about the driving throws me off. And I can't get 4 working at all, so that doesn't help. BG2 does have a pretty great intro, though.

Well, it looks like you have a good opinion.
>>
>>3089149
Probably easiest to just use a VM. TTCC is broken on W10, championship mode crashes the game.
