IGN gave Battlefront 2 a score of 65% stating that the single player campaign is well below average and short, and the terrible multiplayer progression system ruins any chance of the game being any good.

Metacritic has it at 72% for professional reviews but user reviews is at 8% from over 5,000 reviews.

Something you would need to put in a shitload of hours of practice before you even hit the tracks.

Iracing is a sim that's why.

Any of you guys play Dirt?

Fuck that's expensive for some rubber lol.

Yep. But they're good. The ones they sell at EB games are good too. The most important part I'd that they add grip and a larger diameter than the thumbsticks which makes it much easier on your fingers.

It's more expensive when the cheap condom splits!

Ps4 controllers are trash i have broken 4 playing fifa (Rubbers on thumbsticks ripped off, R2 on 3 of them gets stuck) Fkn rubbish design, Bought 2 xb1 controllers n now play fifa maxed in 4k on the pc lol those controllers are proper.

My favourite controller is the razer raiju for ps4. I also use it on Xbox instead of my elite controller. It is wired only and expensive, but for me was worth it. I think it's exclusive to jbhifi, they have it on sale for $179 at the moment.

I was curious if that was good. I have the elite controller but I'm not a fan of it. It's too heavy and the back paddles are annoying. They're in the wrong position for my hands. The position of the paddles along with the weight of the controller makes it so I constantly hit them when I don't want to.

I'll just leave this here for the racing sim fans

Controlled using X-Sim and an Arduino board. You can also (apparently) do blinkers, hazard lights, hand brake, traction control on/off, etc etc.
