Driving Game suggestions

I've decided to buy myself a new driving game - but can't decide what to get.

if there was an updated version of NFS Carbon or something i'd be all over it like a rash, but there isn't and i don't know what to go for... any suggestions?

I normally like the sort of crazy, over the top arcady type thing like nfs carbon, mostwanted etc, rather than sims, but am considering something like racedriver 2 or grid 2 as well... anybody got any other suggestions?

Also, what are people's opinions on the saint's row series?

We've moved on from racing. This a Saints Row thread now

(Sighs) Fine

Saints Row the Third is a decent game, slightly short* but a decent game anyway. Anyone that has played any other game in the series will see that they have made a number of improvements to certain areas and cut back in one or two parts that may get on the nerves of people that wanted to customise their crib etc etc.

* I mean in terms of the story mode there are a ton of side missions to keep you happy

I've never played any of them, but most reviews seem to be positive, and i loved san andreas which a few people have said they are similar to, so it's looking likely that will be one of those chosen, if i can find it second hand (i flatly refuse to buy any story game at full price, they're never worth it)

Part 2 is wonderful and while the third did make improvements it didn't have me going back to play it months and months after I had initially beat it like I did with 2

I'd definately buy Need For Speed Hot Pursuit over 'The run' it is by far the better game, however if you've never played it then Burnout Paradise is definately without a doubt the best racing game out there.

Agree with RtM I went back to play 2 but 3 quickly became a game that I would dip in and out of (Even before I had finished the story mode).

Zaph- if you are looking at a copy of Saints Row the Third for a decent price I'm sure that it will be below the £20.00 mark in a couple of trade in stores (CEX etc) as the price for the game has dropped a couple of places (Sure I saw it for £18.00 the other day on somewhere like Amazon)

Ello ello ello, now this is my speciality. GT5 for all it's stunning graphics is dissapointing. The gameplay is good but the single player is awful, finished the driving in a 3 days and then there is a seperate category where you let you're b spec driver do his thing, completly useless.

Grid is one of the best racing games i've come across but you should play GT3.FANTASTIC game
