Frankly, they are what modern racers would call “econo-boxes” and they are rarely any fun to drive. While it’s cool to zip around in a classic Lotus, the limited starting lineup of unlocked cars is brutal for new players. GT Legends, as the name implies, is all about racing the finest and the fastest of the classic European racing stock (with a smidge of some classic American cars). You won’t find oodles of American cars here (there are some), but you will find the deepest driving experience ever to be called a “video game.” Well, it’s mostly European classic cars to be precise, such as older Lotus’ models, original Cooper Mini’s, etc. This love of a deep racing sim shows in GT Legends, a recently released PC title from Simbin, the guys who brought us the equally deep (and excellent) GTR FIA Racing, have taken the GTR engine and put it in the chassis of dozens of classic cars. The continent that’s given us Rally, Touring Car, Grand Prix, Formula One and Formula Four racing just can’t get enough of games involving hot cars, real tracks and nitty gritty details. Europeans love racing games, it’s right up their with their love of the WWII RTS.
