I think it's okay for journalists to be critical of any topic/product but I do worry bout the reader's interpretation of one person's "informed opinion". To many gamers out there any racing title is just that,...another racing title. However, as we know, not all racing titles are trying to accomplish the same thing. He repeatedly compares individual parts of pCars to individual elements of GT6 and DC. I personally would never even try DC. Not because it is "beneath me" or not a "real sim" but because that type of racing title doesn't interest me. That's the part of sim racing and all it's intricacies that gets lost on the casual gamer/racer. Besides, a large part of graphics is subjective. Some people prefer super photo realism and some are happy with the non realistic look. Heck, some even exclaim that they "don't care about graphics". I don't understand that one.
I am testing pCars daily, and while I don't know what category of sim racer I fall in to, I am really enjoying it and I firmly believe many others will too. Even some of the current skeptics.
Anyone: What makes one a "hard core" sim racer? ....
And with that,...I leave the can of worms open for you all.
