yea definitely ! its the best looking racing game so far and it plays pretty good and has some really nice real world tracks.
you can get some mods if you want it to be sim like with realistic tyre behaviour and altered AI etc.
its easily one of the best pc racing games of the last 10 years imo and it has rather a lot of content
Here's a different opinion. It's one of the worst driving games ever made and I'm not even exaggerating. I prefer sim racing (most notably iRacing but everything from rFactor mods to Simbin titles) and the occasional arcade games that have good handling ie. Forza 3, NFS: Porsche, Trackmania etc. Shift is one of those games you either love or hate with passion. I think it's simply an abomination. I can't imagine a human being made up the (tire) physics and the utterly stupid camera effects. I've given it few more attempts with mods but none of them have even begun to fix the problems in that game.
But as you might have noticed, most people do like it. A lot.
Agreed.....
What is it about the physics that makes you so upset?
The constant sliding whenever you even touch the wheel. I haven't seen a mod that actually fixes it. Most mods promise to fix it but it still remains, annoying as ever.
Shift remains the most unrealistic (modern) racing game in my books. The visuals are decent as long as you disable blur and the camera effects but the trackside objects are a laugh. Hundreds of circus tents on every track.
