Car Racing Game

In 1974, the Atari Company came out with the Arcade game, Gran Trak 10. This game is considered to be forefather of this group of video games. This particular racing game showed the player the track from an overhead view. The player gained points by racing around a track against the game’s clock. The games that followed had more definition to their graphics and offered more exciting play.

But it was not until Namco came out with the Pole Position game did players actually get to race against other vehicles. This was the beginning of true car racing videos. This video game was also the first to be based on an actual racing circuit. The game was quite challenging for its time; however, it was not in the league of the fantasy auto racing games that are on the market today.

The car racing game systems of today are hugely realistic. They give the individual who is playing the feel of actually being behind the wheel of a race car and racing against various other vehicles on the track. Many individuals become entranced in these games and can spend hours playing them, mainly because of how realistic the games can seem.
