Let me tell you something I always love. Playing games! (Oh, you already knew it). From easy play games like Dinner Dash, Sudoku, or ahem.. Solitaire. To hardcore games like Unreal Tournament, Diablo, Fallout, Final Fantasy, etc. Online or just offline.
Another thing I like a lot is speeding. Yes, on the street.
I don't have access to a nearest racing track or joining a racing team. So speeding tickets are my collections now.
Anyway, to save my life for getting a car crash or motorbike accident, I do it electronically. On a computer I have played Need for Speed or Test Drive since it was on Floppy Disk and so Gran Turismo series on PlayStation Consoles. All games are offline.
For the past months I have done lots of research and googling around about online racing game. What I have found is unfortunate. Most of them are done quite simple Flash or Shockwave games and (honestly) they all look half-baked. I'm not saying it's bad. Also I can't say it's because they are easy play games. Far from it, the games are just one-time played and "Ok, that was fun. Next".

The feeling of online game is just another myth. It is online, but not necessarily playing online with your buddies or another person. In reality, you open your browser, point to the site, load the game, play it a bit, ALONE, and put your point to the ladder. That's it!
The game title is very promising. 3D racing game online with cool graphics! Nnn.. not exactly. Most of them are still in 2d sprites with 3d alike gameplay. Remember "OutRun", an old school coin-op game? Just like that. Yeah, it was fun 15 years ago. But today.. Let's play it for 1 hour. How'd you feel to be a nerdiest guy of all? ![]()
There is this online racing game, for free, and in real 3d. You can race up to 5 people at a time. With your friends or whoever in there. Go to http://www.mobracer.com/ and start racing. If you don't want to sign-up, then test drive it. My recommendation is create an account there, it's free. After all, it is more fun to get along with other players.
MobRacer is almost like racing with social networking style. You can win and use the points you've earn to customize your character or kart (it's a kart btw, not a car). So the more you win, the more points you can get. Also you can get the points for just playing around on the site.
