Dear Giant Bomb forum users
We have 3 more weeks until the end of 2021, so I would like to see you guys share your thoughts on this year's gaming so far.
The things that I like:
- Assetto Corsa Competizione got new physics and content via updates.
- iRacing gets new cars and tracks for its roster.
- Automobilista 2 got new physics and content via updates.
- Fanatec reveals their new variant of CSL DD (Wheelbase), which is called GT Pro DD but the thing that I don't like about that is bundled with a steering wheel that has rubber wrap rather than Alcantara for the rim which made it feel more like the ones being used in road cars rather than the proper circuit spec and rally cars.
- Thrustmaster announced T248 (Racing wheel) with two variations, PlayStation and Xbox respectively.
- Halo Infinite's reviews are doing well.
- Forza Horizon 5 is the most played open-world driving game of this year.
- F1 2021 is a good simcade racing game of 2021 despite the classic mode being removed plus not beginner-friendly.
- Car Mechanic Simulator 2021 is an improvement over its predecessors.
- Guilty Gear -Strive- is an excellent fighting game.
- Neptunia ReVerse is a remaster of the original game to celebrate the franchise's 10th anniversary.
- Scarlet Nexus is a good looking action RPG.
- Just Dance 2022 is a very good looking rhythm game for anyone who loves to dance.
- Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury is a good re-released 3D platformer game for the Nintendo Switch.
- Metroid Dread is a very good 2D sci-fi side-scrolling action-adventure.
- Monster Hunter Rise is a must-play action RPG for the fans of this franchise.
The things that I dislike:
- Battlefield 2042's launch is broken.
- Call Of Duty: Vanguard got a lot of bad reception from the customers.
- WRC 10 got a mixed reception from the customers during its early days.
- Gran Turismo 7 and Forza Motorsport Reboot are both not coming until 2022.
- Many other games get delayed to either 2022.
- PS5 and Xbox Series X doesn't seem to have many games at this moment but more and more will come by 2022 (No matter if they're 1st or 3rd parties).
- BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War is never localised for the west, while its server is going to be ended by January 31st, 2022.
- Fast & Furious: Spy Racers Rise of SH1FT3R appears to be not a very good arcade-style driving game.
- Destruction AllStars is a very weird & disappointing demolition derby game.
- Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition on all platforms is so buggy during its early days.
