With Alan's all-singing, all-dancing gaming PC  finally set up, we're finally able to delve into the mindfield that is the PC racing simulation market. As such, you can expect the Team VVV YouTube channel and website to be flooded with PC racing game content over the next few weeks. These first run of gameplay videos […]

2014 is here, in what promises to be an exciting year for racing games as we start to see the leading developers utilise the horsepower of the next generation consoles while the PC racing simulation continues to strive and evolve with the final releases of Assetto Corsa and Project CARS. Plenty for us to cover […]

SEGA's Sonic: All Stars Racing Transformed has been unleashed onto iOS and Android mobile devices following its original release on PS3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC and PS Vita in 2012.  Content has been unsurprisingly slimmed down, but it looks to be an otherwise faithful port with multiple control methods optimised for mobiles. 10 iconic SEGA […]

You may have forgotten by now, but the controversial pedestrian-splattering vehiclar combat series Carmageddon is making a belated comeback this year with Carmageddon Reincarnation. But despite the fact it's due for release early this year on Steam Early Access, we've seen very little in the way of screenshots or videos since it smashed its target […]

If we here at VVV had a new years resolution, it would be to cover more PC racing games. So that's exactly what we're doing, starting with a look at SimBin's free-to-play RaceRoom Experience, or R3E as it's commonly referred to as. Alan's first practice run sees him careering through a terrifying hillclimb course. It's […]

Assetto Corsa's fortnightly content updates will resume on January 17th after taking a break over the Christmas period. While it will invetibly contain a slew of new cars to play with, Kunos Simulazioni has hinted that we can possibly expect an exciting new feature: the addition of AI opponents. This will be a significant update, as […]

It's fair to say that a large chunk of my Christmas holiday period was spent causing rampant carnage in BugBear's superb crash 'em up Next Car Game. Turns out I wasn't the only one.  As an early Christmas present for loyal fans who preordered the game, BugBear unleashed their long-awaited Early Access build of Next […]

As promised, Image Space Incorporated has released the Honda Civic NGTC touring car as a free add-on for rFactor 2, just before the Christmas holiday period comes to a close.  The 330 bhp Civic NGTC debuted in the 2012 British Touring Car Championship where it was driven by teammates Gordon Shedden and Matt Neal, with […]

I get back behind the wheel of BugBear's Next Car Game Early Access Pre-Alpha for another chaotic 24 car race, this time on the remaining tarmac track included in the Early Access Pre-Alpha.  For this race, I thought I would take the slower, but more agile European-style supermini out for a spin. Predictably, it takes […]

This week's racing game news round-up centers on the rush hour that was the build-up to Christmas, as developers churned out some last minute festive surprises.  Chief among which was the release of the Next Car Game Early Access Pre-Alpha. It's fair to say its non-stop adrenaline rush of crazy car crashing action kept me […]

Milestone has posted a new video documenting the day where several star riders from the MXGP Motocross Championship were invited to their studio to check out the upcoming MXGP game. talian riders Tony Cairoli, David Philippaerts and Davide Guarneri, and their MX2 compatriot Alessandro all met their virtual avatar counterparts in MXGP, and were on-hand to […]

BugBear are bringing demolition derby back in a big way with Next Car Game. Last year's DiRT Showdown was the first racing game to feature last man standing demolition derby in years, but it wasn't quite on the same scale as this. In the second of our videos looking at the Early Access pre-alpha build […]

BugBear's Next Car Game certainly got our engines revving with its impressive damage modelling showcased in the technology demo. We couldn't help but be intrigued to how this will transpire in the final game.  Just in time for Christmas, BugBear has now unleashed an Early Access pre-alpha build of Next Car Game to everyone who […]

The release of the Next Car Game Technology Demo has whetted my appetite for destruction. This was my first chance to sample the revolutionary soft body deformation physics engine that will be powering the final game – potentially, this could set the new standard for car damage in racing games, as cars finally crumple and […]

This week's racing game news round-up takes us back to GT6, albiet on a less positive note as we reported on its disappointing sales slump. Is the Gran Turismo series starting to run out of fuel? It wasn't all bad news for GT6 devotees, though – we were treated to the game debut of the […]

Alan's not quite finished with the Lotus E21 Formula One car yet, a car renowned for being the most expensive car in the game. Here we see him tackle the Top Gear test track in the terrifyingly-fast F1 car.  While the track is of course famous for featuring in Top Gear as the location of […]

The Mount Panorama circuit in Bathurst has debuted in a number of high profile racing games this year, but none are quite as accurate as iRacing's recreation.  A new behind the scenes video looks at the building of Bathurst, as VP of Art & Production Greg Hill reveals the full extent of the painstaking development process […]

This week's news recap was unsurprisingly dominated by the release of the PS3's swansong racer Gran Turismo 6. We've got everything covered: from our own gameplay coverage over on our YouTube channel to all the latest Gran Turismo-related news on the site, including announcements from GT6's prestigeious launch event in Ronda, Spain. That's not to […]

Following our first otherworldly adventure in Gran Turismo 6's bizarre lunar space missions, Alan continues exploring the moon with a gamepaly video looking at the Lunar MIssion 2 special event. Granted, it's not exactly gripping gameplay but it's an appealing novelty in an already expansive game nonetheless. Let us know how you're getting on with […]

BugBear is hoping to revoltionise our perceptions of vehicle damage in Next Car Game with its soft body deformation system that allows you to bend, buckle and dismember your car beyond recognition. And judging from the release of the playable sneak peek technology demo, it looks as if they will succeed.  The technology demo pitted […]

We've already experienced Gran Turismo 6's beautifully-rendered Brands Hatch and the otherworldly awesomeness of the Moon Buggy, so now it's time for Team VVV to try out one of the game's all-new fictional tracks. The venue in question is the Matterhorn Circuit set in the Swiss Alps, and we're experiencing its various inclines and contours […]

The size of Gran Turismo 6 is absolutely astronomical. Literally.  While a ludicrous variety of cars in all shapes and sizes is nothing out of the ordinary for Gran Turismo as the collection increases with each iteration (GT6 has the largest assortment of cars in a game to date at over 1200), even we were […]

Following on from our First Look video that's already up on the site, we've now got our first multi-cam gameplay footage of Gran Turismo 6 ready for your viewing pleasure. The clip itself consists of a bunch of replay angles of a race Alan had in the uber-exotic Pagani Huayra, around one of his all-time […]

We had to keep quiet about this with regards to embargoes and such, but we can now officially reveal our inaugural gameplay video of Gran Turismo 6 on Team VVV! Given this is the first of hopefully many bits of in-game footage featuring the much-anticipated Gran Turismo title, we thought we'd spice things up a […]

Since its initial announcement a few months back, Milestone has been typically secretive about their forthcoming project MXGP: The Official Motocross Videogame.  We first saw the game in a brief teaser trailer, before being treated to a salivating selection of screenshots but we had yet to see the game in motion to pass our judgement. Until […]

Episode four of our weekly news round-ups is now up, and it's something of a Forza frenzy with hot topics including the controversial micro-transactions in Forza Motorsport 5, plus a host of raw gameplay videos allowing you to hear the audio in its purity at long last.  We also had an inside look at the […]

We've finally got our first batch of multi-cam Forza Motorsport 5 gameplay videos edited together, and we're kicking things off with an initial playthrough in one of the all-new cars to the game.

Here's some more Forza Motorsport 5 replay gameplay for you. This time Alan's in an Audi E-tron Quattro carving its tyre treads into the cobblestones of  Prague, Forza 5's new flagship fictional track. And yes, before you ask, the music will be turned off in future videos   Look out for more Forza 5 coverage coming […]

One of the most exciting inclusions to Forza Motorsport 5 is the debut of open wheel cars. So when Alan obtained an Xbox One and a copy of Forza Motorsport 5, it comes as no surprise to find that his formula one fandom influenced his choice of car featured in our first of many upcoming […]

iRacing.com have put together a new rousing trailer for their subscription-based PC racing simulator, showcasing its broad variety of racing disciplines in action whilst showing off some of the locations including the recently-added Bathurst track, which ranks as one of the most accurate recreations in any racing game.

After a week of silence, Evolution Studios have unleashed a new gameplay video of the PS4's flagship racing game DriveClub. Sorry to disappoint you, but no, it's not the full race gameplay video we've been promised, but another brief snippet of fresh gameplay barely spanning over 10 seconds. Talk about feeding us table scraps.  Not […]

EA continue to saturate their video coverage of the forthcoming Need for Speed: Rivals, with a new pair of videos showcasing gameplay sourced from both the PS4 and Xbox One versions.  As the only racer available for both next generation platforms at launch, the footage is bound to come under scrutiny as feckless fanboys unite […]

BugBear's Next Car Game has gained some significant traction lately, having set up a Kickstarter campaign to gain more supporters and funding.

Start your engines, PC sim racers: after several agaonising delays, the long-awaited Assetto Corsa is finally here in the form of a playable beta available to purchase on Steam Early Access.  While the beta is merely the bare shell of the game as developer Kunos Simulazioni continue to add additional car and track content, game modes […]

It's fair to say that Evolution's recent batch of teasingly short DriveClub gameplay videos left us wanting more. It's clear that the game has made significant strides since we last saw it, and this was all set to culiminate in a video of the latest build showing the first full grid race in DriveClub, which […]

Following on from the free Moto2 and Moto3 update, Milestone have released a new DLC content pack for their well-received MotoGP '13, which we declared as "the most authentic MotoGP game in years" in our review.  Dubbed as the Champions pack, the DLC adds 14 legendary riders from the past including Doohan, Schwantz, Rainey, Spencer, Gardner, […]

Welcome to the first in our new weekly video round-up of all the latest racing game news and our own feature content floating around the TeamVVV website.  It's been quite congested in the world of racing games with high profile titles still being prepped for release, but we've got everything covered. Hot topics in episode […]

Evolution's first showing of the recently delayed DriveClub since its unceremonious delay left us with ample optimism. Compared to what we saw at Eurogamer with its bare-bones content and choppy frame rate, the progress shown in the latest build looks stunning, indicating that delaying the anticipated PS4 project was the right decision.  Captured using the […]

DriveClub's unceremonious delay may have been a huge blow to prospective PS4 owners, but we're confident that the extra development time will be worth the wait. After all, it would be a travesty for a title with such promise to be rushed for release to coincide with the PS4's in an unoptimised state that falls […]

The final part of our exclusive Need for Speed: Rivals hands-on gameplay is a simple exploratory drive around the open world map of Redview County, as Alan takes in the sights and sounds while doing his best to avoid confrontation with fellow online Sunday drivers in order to explore the map without disruption.  From our […]

Our hands-on gameplay video coverage of Need for Speed: Rivals continues in part 2, as Alan explores some of the events you can play as the in-game police. Except of course this is Need for Speed, so you won't be seeing Vauxhall Astra police cars patrolling Redview County. Alan's car of choice was the all-new […]

It's a well known fact that at some stage every video game franchise ever gets turned into a cash-in kart racing game. Last year saw F1 Race Stars, LittleBigPlanet Karting, and Sonic and SEGA All Stars Racing Transformed battle for supremacy in the revived genre, but we all know that die-hard kart racing fans (if […]

Time now for another look at WRC 4 on the PlayStation Vita as our preview coverage on Milestone's latest rally sim presses on.  This time we take a brief look at the new Australian stage (which was sadly cut short) before taking a spin on the dustry trails of Portugal, which, along with being retextured, […]
