Sim.

When I got the G25 racing wheel I actually got better at Prologue. Man, I played that game for a long time. I can't wait for GT5. Check out the thread on the first page of the PS3 forums. Someone found footage of GT5.

I don't remember hearing GO in Motorstorm... or NFS... or Midnight Club... or (list goes on).

I don't think he literally means old school arcade machine racers...

Yeah.

Well, GT5: Prologue is pretty much the only true sim on the PS3 anyway. I tried the other "sims", like DiRT and GRiD but it just feels arcady to me. I wonder how GT5's off-road system will work/feel.

I reckon its gonna be sweet. Driving a Subaru or Mitsubishi round the grand canyons would be brilliant

Arcade racers outweigh simulator racers by a whole lot so you cannot really compare. I don't really like sims but I know why it does appeal to people. Actually I prefer Nintendo's arcade racers to any other company's but so far the big N has not delvered. F-zero FTW.

Definitely arcade racers for me, but I do play simulators occasionally.

Arcade racers for me. Games like Need For Speed/Dirt/Grid is what I like to play. I do like GT, but I sometimes find sim racers really really boring.

I enjoy both, but I invest alot more time and love into sims. :P I play Gran Turismo for hundreds of hours, where as I generally put in about 10 or 15 hours into Arcade racers before I'm tired of them.
