Still, this only makes your eventual triumph more delectable. Think you can wade straight into a race without learning the track first? You’re in for a rude awakening. Although even here, it’s not out on its own in front, because Project CARS 2 can be played on both Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. It’s the closest I’ll get to sitting behind the bonnet of a Bugatti this century and a proper bit of magic in the midst of what can be a humdrum affair. Naturally, there’s a drop in the game’s resolution but the difference in immersion PlayStation VR makes is dramatic. Yup, if you happen to have one of Sony’s moderately maligned headsets around you can happily don the thing for a one-on-one face-off with an AI opponent. Still, GT Sport does have one almighty trick up its sleeve: virtual reality. And if that sounds sniffy, then remember Forza 7 boasts a whopping great roster of over 700 vehicles. Just a roster of 162 impeccably rendered cars, from the fairly run-of-the-mill Ford Focus ST to Ferrari’s gorgeous LaFerrari. There are no planes jetting off in the distance or astoundingly detailed crowds. Not only does GT Sport skimp on dynamic weather conditions, where it’ll start raining in the middle of a race and grease up the track like John Travolta’s quiff, its scenery is notably more static.
