Racing-games Memes

Modern racing games have become corporate cringe festivals with pre-order bonuses, microtransactions, and dialogue written by someone who thinks gamers say "friendo" unironically.

No hand-holding, no chicken suits, just pure unhinged revenge-fueled chaos. The golden age of gaming didn't need to bribe you with cosmetics—it just let you commit felonies in a BMW M3 GTR and called it a Tuesday.
