UPDATED: The online problems have now been resolved and all the game's online features are now available again. ORIGINAL COMMENT: Hello viewers. Just a note on Dirt 5 in my video above: for some reason the game hasn't been playable when connected to the internet for nearly two weeks now, which is pretty useless. Sony have been sent several error reports via PSN, but there's no mention - or even acknowledgement - of the problem as yet on any official channels, as far as I'm aware. Hopefully the problem will get patched very soon, as it seemed to occur after a recent PS software update.

Alongside Redout 2, I would recommend BallisticNG on PC. It's a very close homage to the Wipeout games, especially those from PS1 era. Plays very well and it's good fun.

I hadn't heard of BallisticNG. I just had a quick look at it on Steam and wow...! I'm a little surprised there weren't some legal implications about the designs! The cars/ships look pretty much exactly like the Wipeout cars/ships. Feisar, Qirex, etc. The track designs too, look very very familiar! Oh well, I'm not complaining. Just more good stuff. Does it play well, like the Wipeout games?

In Circuit Superstars is there a 2 player (online/local) campaign/championship etc? or just single race?
@Video_Games_Forever22 күн бұрын
You actually have four-player local split-screen, and you can all play against other players online or the AI. The net code is pretty stable now and it's good fun.
@Zirus_Blackheart22 күн бұрын
@@Video_Games_Forever Yeah but is it just single races or is there also a campaign, story or tournament etc for 2 player?
@Video_Games_Forever22 күн бұрын
You've got individual championships against the AI, using all the different vehicles across several difficulty settings. There's the usual time trial mode, and one silly chunk of DLC that will let you drive three-wheelers and tow caravans around. But really, the local and online multiplayer is where things are most fun in this game.

I love Circuit Superstars, but I feel it becomes way too hard, way too quickly. It would be great if there was an option to make it a bit more chill, because that would make it perfect for some relaxed after work session. But it gets to a point where it feels like it’s just trying way too hard for something that is by nature very twitchy. I don’t understand why so many indie developers think everything has to be the “Dark Souls” of a certain genre..
@Video_Games_Forever3 ай бұрын
Hello! I do think certain players just got good and ran away with it very early on, to the point where it became almost impossible to take any wins off them online. But if you've got people over, you can play four-player split-screen AND online simultaneously, which can even things up a bit and makes for some superb chaos. Or just keep it local and race against the AI. It's just a shame that there hasn't been the volume of updates that the developer initially seemed to promise. I do hope we see a more fully-featured Circuit Superstars 2 in the not-too-distant future.
@Zirus_Blackheart23 күн бұрын
In Circuit Superstars does the car control from the cars facing direction? Like your turning the wheel in the car itself rather then pressing the stick left makes the car go to the screens left correct? If its not from the cars perspective then meh :-/ Also, you can't run the pit crew over like in Indy Heat?! Sacrilege!
@Video_Games_Forever22 күн бұрын
Hello! The control is indeed from the car's perspective. So, if you're coming down the screen, left is right and right is left. But I'm afraid you can't splat the pit crew. They just become ghosts if you try to drive through them. I think there'd be a lot of dead engineers otherwise!

Hotshot Racing is very underwhelming and quite disappointing after just 20 minutes of playing it. Such a shame because it has a great look and plays very smooth, but it's surprisingly dull and the cars don't feel particularly distinct from each other, or make much of a difference in races. Redout is a poor man's Wipeout. They copied everything but left out the weapons/pickups... Why? Who wants to play Wipeout without the weapons? Not me. People are ignoring Redout because they're choosing not to play a clone of a better game that neglected to clone one of the most important elements. At least when Grip was launched as a spiritual successor/sequel to the Rollcage games they remembered to add power ups. But honestly, fire up a PS1 or emulator and play Wipeout 2097 and Rollcage 2 and those games both still blow all of these titles in the video out of the water. They might look dated, but the gameplay is still superior.

Hello! Like most racing games, I think Hot Shot Racing and Redout II are better in multiplayer, be that local or online, depending on the available options. I find some of the track design and the stop-start weapons racing in a few WipEout games to be a bit annoying, when I'd rather just race some decent tracks that are built for speed. I haven't played Rollcage 2 for years, but that's a good shout for old school gamers, if they can look past the dated graphics, as you say. There's definitely something for everyone out there, and thanks for watching!
