No, I'm literally just dumping on the Driver franchise. The tutorial takes 800 tries to pass because they make you spin the car between two posts in a parking garage. I got so frustrated I stopped playing. I like most other driving games.
My vote goes to Car and Driver Grand Tour Racing '98 for the Playstation. If you can get past the stereotypical things written in the info packet, it is a fun game imo.
The spotter from NASCAR '11 The Game. He's supposed to help you not crash, but he uses such an accusatory tone and plays the blame game with you. That and some game glitches caused me to trade the game in.
NASCAR '99 is awesome. You can hear Bob Jenkins give out cool facts about NASCAR's history, plus its comforting to hear from the late Benny Parsons again. The graphics and gameplay maybe aren't perfect, but I love this game.
