Everything from the helmet cam, and the blurred vision on your peripherals, the sheer sense of speed and how the driver gets pushed to either side from the G force. Never felt anything like it in a game. Like Nurburging, at night with a full pack of cars is frightening, especially when you're in front as your senses are saying you can't push any more, you can't go faster but the pack of lights in your mirror push you into the unknown. Such an underrated game, just wish it had the physics of Assetto Corsa.

Something I liked from both this and the first Shift game is that the HUD (especifically the dials) changed depending on the car you had.

You know gaming community is filled with sheep when games like Shift 2, The Run, Rivals, Assetto Corsa go unnoticed but Forza Motorsports 7, new F1 games, Grid 2019, Dirt 4 get all the attention. No wonder there's been only downgrades in newer games like Heat and Payback from Need For Speed 2016.

Shift 1 and Shift 2 were a blast with a steering wheel. The area where these two shine the most is the cockpit view. There are far more realistic simulators out there, but this one feels really immersive from the cockpit. Rearview camera isn't that good, it's weird, the cars get at an angle that looks like they're drifting when they're not while steering through corners. They're just wobbly. But the moment you switch to cockpit or helmet cam...it's pure gold.

always loved how before taking a corner, the pilot view would look at the corner before taking it

kinda funny how the hood shakes so much on that Porsche considering that it's a rear engine car

The greatest detail this game houses is the Helmet Cam and the fade-out effects in that camera and the driver's head movements in that angle, GOAT imho and unrivaled.
