Action Games: Driving

Driving Games

One of the things about driving games is the massive variety of variations that exist. Everything from very simple, cartoon-style racers like Mario Kart to the white-knuckle realistic physics of Forza. There are also many different gameplay styles, from pure first person racing to top-down battle modes, to side scrolling physics puzzles like Max Dirt and Trials Frontier. Games offer many levels of complexity, and in RPG style, some games offer the ability to earn points or money to upgrade your vehicle. Like buffing an avatar, adding a bigger engire, better tires, or flashy paint job gives players the opportunnity to differentiate their vehicles based on their own style. Do you go for raw power or more control? Heavier body style or nimble rally car?

Aside from the games noted above (I really enjoy the Trials franchise for its combination of story and physics puzzles), I found this game called Total Wreckage, which is a third-person view smash-up derby.
