Future Gamer Recommends
Viper Racing (PC)

Another PC game, but that's the way things go sometimes folks. And besides, this one's a goodie. You've got to love American muscle cars to get anything out of this but if you do you're in for a blast. The game's designed specifically for 3D acceleration and you're really going to want a decent joystick/joypad because trying to steer one of these monsters on the keys is tough.

If you've got the kit though, you're in for a good ride. There are leagues to work your way through, multiplayer options to tackle and if you're finding the Simulation mode a little tough, you can always opt for the Arcade mode. Good stuff, but Future Gamer is especially fond of the Painting mode where we can paint rude things all over the car before starting a race. Puerile we know, but entertaining nonetheless.
