Best Dreamcast Sim Racing Games of All Time

We already published the list of best Dreamcast games of all time, now it’s time to discover the best Dreamcast sim racing games of all time.

With amazing titles available, the Dreamcast definitely has a great library of sim racing games.

So, if you’re a fan of both the Dreamcast and sim racing games, there’s a chance you’ll like this list.

And some of you may already know some of the games mentioned in this list.

#10. Suzuki Alstare Extreme Racing

Suzuki Alstare Extreme Racing
  • Release Data: Criterion Games/Ubisoft, 1999
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

While Suzuki Alstare Extreme Racing is a distinct improvement over its imported version, it is still a mediocre title.

The biggest problem is that it never really feels all that “extreme.”

All in all, Suzuki Alstare Extreme Racing is a decent racing game but not nearly as good as other racers.

#9. TNN Motorsports HardCore Heat

TNN Motorsports HardCore Heat
  • Release Data: CRI/ASC Games, 1999
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

In the features department, HardCore Heat is pretty standard.

All your basic modes are present, including championship mode, time attack, and practice mode. You can modify your car’s brakes and suspension, as well as modify the decals that appear on the car.

But, if you like dune buggy racing, then this one will do.

#8. CART Flag to Flag

CART Flag to Flag
  • Release Data: Zoom/Sega, 1999
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

While Monaco Grand Prix offers more realism in the simulation side of things, it is decidedly less fun for the casual gamer.

Flag-To-Flag is geared with the casual gamer in mind, and will likely stand out as a prime choice for the newcomers.

#7. Monaco Grand Prix

Monaco Grand Prix
  • Release Data: Ubisoft, 1999
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

Monaco Grand Prix series has an eye-catching version that sets the standard for F1 racers – and makes a worthwhile investment for any hardcore racing-sim fan.

If the lack of an official license doesn’t bother you and the authenticity of the experience is what you’re after, look no further.

#6. F1 World Grand Prix

F1 World Grand Prix
  • Release Data: Video System, 2000
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

Ultimately, Formula 1 World Grand Prix is an excellent game, which falls just short to a few minor problems.

It’s not a revolutionary title, but will definitely satisfy your F1 needs as the developer has provided an entertaining and quite fun experience.

#5. 4×4 Evolution

4x4 Evolution
  • Release Data: Terminal Reality/Gathering, 2000
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

While it’s not the Dreamcast’s best racer, 4×4 Evolution offers an adequate challenge, rewarding gameplay, and the ability to build your own truck.

If you’re into off-roading, you may never have to buy another video game.

If you’re a racing game fan, 4×4 Evolution has enough substance to keep you coming back for more.

#4. Test Drive V-Rally

Test Drive V-Rally
  • Release Data: Eden Studios/Infogrames, 2000
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

The game’s sound quality is solid, fitting the medium and perfectly supporting the game’s fast-paced, technical rally experience.

Oddly enough, that also sums up Test Drive V-Rally.

It’s an inviting, fast-paced, technical rally game that offers enough replay value and features to satiate any racing audience.

#3. F355 Challenge: Passione Rossa

F355 Challenge: Passione Rossa
  • Release Data: Sega/Acclaim, 2000
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

F355 Challenge is one of the best driving games currently available on the Dreamcast, and once you master the game’s steep learning curve, the addictive need to constantly best your own lap times will provide weeks of replayability.

If you are looking for one of the best racing sims available on the Dreamcast, F355 Challenge is the answer.

#2. Metropolis Street Racer

Metropolis Street Racer
  • Release Data: Bizarre Creations/Sega, 2001
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

Metropolis Street Racer is a beautiful racer with accurate physics that pretends to be a racing simulation by requiring perfect execution, but it fails to give you the desired customization options to make it worthwhile.

And in its attempt to appeal to both sides of the racing spectrum, Metropolis Street Racer ends up stuck in limbo.

#1. Test Drive Le Mans

Test Drive Le Mans
  • Release Data: Melbourne House/Sega, 2000
  • Genre: Racing » Simulation » Automobile

If you’re a racing game fan, you really owe it to yourself to give Le Mans a try.

It is truly a game you will come back to day after day, week after week, aiming to unlock every car, break every record, and experience the excitement of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Hi, I'm R, and I've been playing video games since I was a kid. My first console was the original PlayStation (the gray one) and I spent countless hours playing Crash Bandicoot series and Spyro series. My second console was the PS2 Fat, and I completed all of the GTA series 100%.
