Oh wow, I completely forgot about Road Rash. I loved the first two of those games. That series completely slipped my mind. Had I remembered about it, it would have been on the list easy.

Good call.

Little known fact of V8 second offense for ps1: take out the disc and put in a music cd to listen to your own music while blowing cars up. Also road rash was amazing. Wave race had beautiful graphics and the mechanics were awesome. Don't thinl that was a franchise tho. Also now technically the nascar series itself is a dead franchise since ea chose not to renew their contract with them.

Also the xtreme series. racing against bicycles skateboarders and rollerbladers was fun.

What was that ps2 game where u road a mountain bike down a hill? That game was sweet.

Very solid list.

I've owned all five and loved all five.. especially Jet Moto and Vigilante 8

OH MY GOD I HAD FORGOTTEN ABOUT THIS GAME!

I definitely would love to see a revival of Nascar Heat in the console realm. EA totally hosed that entire genre of racing over the years. I always thought Codemasters would do a great job with Nascar, but looks like they're focusing on the F1 series for now. I can't wait to take that title for a spin.
