The sub-genre of racing simulators is not one that I bear a special love towards, but it is one that I highly respect. The grand endeavour to achieve absolute realism in a video game, be it from the laws of gravity to the horrors of war, includes perfecting the sensation of an Audi Quattro flying along a forest floor on …
