Trackmania is very much an arcade style racer. Its a free download and has online play. Might be worth a look?

I'm not sure if Toca 3 is too sim for you (you can set it to arcade style). It beats the pants off any other racing game for me multiplayer.

Xpand Rally.

Not sure how popular it is online though.

Toca probably, thats hard one as the proper sims are generally followed by greater numbers

Toca 3 is an amazing game. I play it all the time on the PS2. How popular is it online for the PC? Can you always get a full game?

Not played it so much lately but yes never had a problem with finding games, and there are so many different types to play, f1, Nascar, Monster truck, Rally etc etc even lawn mowers lol

And in what way is rFactor an arcade racer?

bryanlaycock · 21 Apr 2007 at 21:35

rfactor isnt as realistic as live for speed, and some of the mods, like the megane one have an arcady feel

if you like Rally, then Richard Burns Rally is worth a look at.

Why has no one said TDU? Though are their MP servers still as bad as the betas?

You're kidding me, right?

Live for speed
Gtr/Gtr2
Toca 2/3

best is live for speed by a mile.

Spunj99 · 22 Apr 2007 at 15:41

Arcade you say?

Moto GP2 and 3 are arcadey and last time i went for a game (about 3 months ago) there was plenty of multiplayer action to be had.

Richard Burns Rally is not for the feint-hearted

One wheel in the wrong place and you're on your roof and the race is over.... like here

Of which only the last two games can be described as Arcade, though I guess you can change the difficulty on GTR to make it less of a sim.

I see Richard Burns Rally has also made a mention... about as far away from an arcade game as you can get.

People really should try reading threads first.
