iRacing Arcade is a lighthearted, accessible racer with an interesting career mode and an unusual lineup of licensed tracks, but its car selection is oddly limited. Full review:

My selection of mods for Gran Turismo 2000 is now out! I've extracted every bit of replayability from this Festival demo - with a car selection feature offering a roster of 6 cars, proper widescreen, modern controls, and more. Enjoy "GT2 on PS2" fully!

I've spent the past week playing JDM: Japanese Drift Master and put together a small review and a technical breakdown: analyzed the graphics options, ran multiple benchmarks on a lower-spec GPU, and sprinkled in some Unreal Engine 5 bugs. Happy drifting!

A technical dive into JDM: Japanese Drift Master

Does it deliver? First impressions, benchmarks, optimized settings, Steam Deck compatibility. And some bonus Unreal Engine 5 bugs.

@nicopap Yep, that's correct. San Andreas uses a statically compiled C Runtime and so that couldn't change with the OS updates, leaving only WinAPI as a possible culprit.
