It's on my wishlist, looking out for it on sale though from what I hear Project cars has the edge graphically at least.

It's a fantastic game. Driving model is better than Project Cars. Yes it's maybe a little weaker graphically. But realism > graphics for me.

I too have been waiting for it to go on sale. I have project cars and think it looks pretty but not happy with the driving. You feel that driving is better in AC?

It's on sale now. I have been in it since day one. It's a great first implementation of VR, and I personally love the split system where you do your menu interfacing on the screen and driving on the VR device. I recommend it for anyone who wants a great racing sim...very much recommend!

I have all of the big racing games and know everyone in that world. AC has a great feel to it, much better than Pcars and even better than iRacing. LFS is fantastic, too, for anyone who wants the most underrated racing sim of all time.

Well, now I have three VR racing sims, two of which I'll probably never play. I'm cool with LFS, it was great value and I had my money's worth long before VR came along, but not sure which out of Assetto Corsa or Project Cars I'll end up preferring.

I remember playing AC back when I had my dk2 but it was a kerfuffle getting it to work. What are the differences with AC and Pcars in the cv1 Bruce ?
