Online Racing League.

[Deleted]

Driving is in my blood. I realize I'm becoming more like my dad day by day when it comes to how I prefer my racing games and how much my attention is shifting towards driving games.

With that said I'm looking to start a Online racing league for Ps3/PC and possibly Xbox. Spanning various games. If any of you have any ideas or want to partner up let me know.

Now the idea is to make it based on Simulation games, such as Gran Turismo, NASCAR, Formula 1, Etc.

With that said I would also like to attempt a Racing League for Jetmoto at some point if you guys would be interested. I would figure out a way to structure it so it would be fair and enjoyable.

I would love to join. I'm currently in the process of moving so it'll be like a month before I can get everything transferred and set back up. I'm on a wireless network right now, but I'm not exactly sure if it's good enough for racing before I get my good internet back.


Simulation, eh? That poses a little problem. All of my racing games are for the xbox 360. I only have Forza 2 and 3 as my sim games. The rest(PGR 3 and 4, Dirt 2) are arcade-based. Formula 1 would be nice though, been meaning to pick up a game based on that. Same for Nascar. Only had my PS3 since last christmas so unless it was an exclusive, I didn't buy it. lol Don't have any racing games for the PC, sadly. My laptop isn't powerful enough to really run them...well it might be, just have to put it on the lowest settings.


Racing League for Jet Moto...if it's possible, willing to try that as well.

I'm actually considering Arcade racers at the moment. It's good you own Xbox racing games though. Because if you wanted to, you could run the Xbox side of things. (Seeing I don't have a Xbox.)

I wouldn't mind doing that once I get things settled. Been dying to get some kind of racing league going. Was part of a group that did PGR 3 and 4 a lot then when that group disbanded for unknown reasons became a part of a team that did Forza 2 and 3 extensively. It'll give me a reason to buy some points and get extra cars haha. Right now most of my time when I was on was taken up by Halo, CoD, Gears, and NHL 11. Oh...and I'm slowly getting back into wrestling as well(waiting to get the new Smackdown vs Raw 2011 as I just have 2010), but I can always adjust that gaming schedule.

Awesome. Glad to hear it. Once I get a few more people I'll set up a forum or something to give people a place to meet.

As for JetMoto League I think that should be apart of JetMoto Central. If fan's see us throwing things like that on this Forum I'm pretty sure more people would join. The only issue is the limited amount of Tracks and slight online awkwardness.

That would be great. Those people could provide a list of racing games that they have or are willing to get to make this work. Like me, I don't have a Formula 1 game, but am willing to buy one. Same with say a Moto GP game. Those games would more than likely be cheap depending on the title.


JetMoto League would be fun to do. Still a massive crime that with the interactivity of racing games these days, JetMoto is left out in the cold. 20 people racing online in a Jetmoto game? If Bizarre Creations(the original developers of PGR 1-4) can do a 20 player racing game with the mario kart-like Blur, then JetMoto would work wonders. Come on, Sony...come oooooon!

[Deleted]

Well, if we had someone who could Mod Jetmoto or at least knew how and give me instructions, it would be possible to fix these problems, such as the online and being able to add new tracks and such.

Only problem is I think it would take reverse engineering to get that to work. In my opinion thats a big pain in the rear.

[cieran19]

Yes it would be a pain..but if it works...it'll go a looong way to reviving Jet Moto...!

Also as far as PC games, I'm thinking of supporting rFactor. It is a very highly moddable race sim game meaning we could use it and mod different racing types in it such as, F1, NASCAR and what not by moding one game.

[cieran19]

Now that would be a big help. If I can run it without any problems, I'm in.

[Deleted]

I can run it I'm sure you can. My pc is from 2003. It gives you older direct X options and such to make sure you can. Also if you buy it buy a dvd copy it's only 20 while a download key is 40.

[cieran19]

i "should" be ok. I'm playing StarCraft 2 on this laptop on medium settings. If for some strange reason that doesn't work, my desktop which is older might be good enough to handle it.

[Deleted]

If you can play startcraft 2 I'm 100% sure you can run it. Unless something strange stops you. I can't run starcraft 2 at it's lowest settings.
