Project Cars is from team members that were responsible for GTR2...one of the greatest sports car racing sims ever made. I have the Xbox One version of Project Cars and do like it, much better than those arcade games (Forza/GT). Right now just playing with the controller...but the GT86/FR-S is pretty fun and somewhat true to how it really is - love romping around Donington Park with it.

For those unfamiliar with GTR2...it is a 10 year old GT racing sim that has brilliant physics (tire and suspension model are really, really good) and awesome force feedback (once dialed in) - plus is works very well with MoTec DAQ capture software so you can see where you need to improve on each track and work on your braking, entry speed, or whatever...

Just look at the external car movement in this video, and then imagine you can feel what the car is doing at each corner through the steering wheel - because you actually can:
