Hello fellow tofu delivery bois!
Today, I present you with yet another special video. The first part to a possible series of videos: The Complete History and Evolution of Sim Racing Games (or Sim Racers)

I spent quite some time on this video, and I am so sorry about the sound, but I am currently traveling, so high-quality audio isn't really an option. In this series, I want to go deeper into the evolution of sim racing games in general, rather than just put in 30-second clips to show it. I'd really appreciate some feedback, as the evolution of sim racing games is a very interesting topic, especially this early era. Also, I wanted to address all the important titles, that brought something of their own to the sim racing genre evolution, be it a feature or even a sponsorship.

I really hope, you'll enjoy this video. Love ya.
