The Ford Racing series, and more specifically FR3 is a big ever-present part of my life. I was born into a PS2 with FR3, and I played it so much my dad had to sand down the CD multiple times throughout my life. It was fun by myself playing all of the unique game modes and with my dad or the rare friend coming over for 1v1 split-screen racing. I want to see GOG do something to re-release this game, as well as other games in the FR series because I want to garner a modern audience to enjoy these games, and for myself to possibly attain better PC ports of these games, as they all have numerous issues. FR2 has jank music drivers that may or may not work on your system, FR3 has a leftover debug HUD and lots of minor stability issues, and none of the games support widescreen natively on PC (but there is a really good universal fix for most of the games by AuToMaNiAk005). If anyone at GOG can get a hold of the source code for any of the FR games, I think they can do great things with it to ensure it'll look and run better on modern systems than it ever could've with the original builds. More in-depth moddability would be a great plus as well, but I wouldn't mind having absolutely no additional features if there is even the sliver of a chance at an actually stable build of this game that feels just like any other modern PC program.
I remember Ford Racing 3 as a fun, underrated arcade-style racing game with a surprisingly diverse lineup of Ford vehicles, from classic Mustangs to massive F-150 trucks. The tracks were vibrant, and the game had a smooth, enjoyable driving feel, even if it wasn’t the most realistic racing sim. Of course, it is not NFS, but still one of the best games that I have ever played.

Jet Set Radio HDJet Set Radio HD is the latest remaster in a string of Dreamcast "hits" to see new life on download platforms, but Sega has been insistent that they've learned its lessons. The publisher has emphasized how hard it's trying to get things right this time, and for many, it couldn't have chosen a better game.
Jet Set Radio was part of Sega's onslaught of new properties with an emphasis on flash and style during the second wave of Dreamcast software, but it might be one of the more obscure. It's a game that almost everyone has heard of, but I think few have actually played. This was remedied somewhat with 2002's Xbox sequel Jet Set Radio Future. Unlike Sonic Adventure or the arcade hit Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio HD is the chance for many to finally play a game they've only heard about.
Nostalgia has the side effect of high expectations though, and Jet Set Radio HD just can't meet them. While the flash and style of Jet Set Radio HD remains untouched and unvarnished by a dozen years of progress, the rest of it can't stand up to scrutiny. Squirrely controls, camera catastrophes, and nonsensical level design make Jet Set Radio HD a better memory than game.Action

Sega Rally ChampionshipSega Rally Championship is a 1994 arcade racing game developed by AM5 on the Sega Model 2 board. The unique selling point of Sega Rally was the ability to drive on different surfaces (including asphalt, gravel and mud), with different friction properties, with the car's handling changing accordingly. As the first racing game to incorporate this feature, Sega Rally is considered to be one of the milestones in the evolution of the racing game genre.
The music for the arcade game was composed by Takenobu Mitsuyoshi, while the Sega Saturn port's soundtrack was done by Naofumi Hataya and the Guitar were played by Joe Satriani.
Need for Speed: Most WantedThe player arrives in Rockport City, driving a racing version of the BMW M3 GTR (E46). Following Mia Townsend (played by Josie Maran), the player proves his driving prowess as he is pursued by a veteran police officer named Sergeant Cross (played by Dean McKenzie), who vows to take down the player and end street racing in Rockport.
Races seem to be in the player's favor until a particular group of racers, led by the game's antagonist, Clarence "Razor" Callahan (played by Derek Hamilton), sabotages and win the player's car in a race.Trending Open world
Need for Speed: Underground 2Need For Speed Underground 2 takes place in Bayview after the events of Need for Speed: Underground. The prologue begins with the player driving in a Nissan Skyline R34 in Olympic City (though the racing scenes are actually in Bayview), the setting of NFS:UG. He then receives a race challenge from a rather ominous personality who offers him a spot on his crew, but "won't take 'no' for an answer." The player races off — despite Samantha's warnings — only to be ambushed by a mysterious driver in a rage that totals his Skyline. The driver, who has a unique scythe tattoo, makes a call confirming the accident, and the flashback fades out.Trending Action
