As an avid car nut and gamer, nothing lights my wick as much as a brand new Gran Turismo or Forza Motorsport title. One of those franchises has been relatively quiet over the last while, the other forked into a behemoth that not only covers pure vehicle simulation, but arcade racing action and even off-roading, […]

I got my first motorcycle in 1992. I was sixteen. The steed I purchased from my friend Mike was a 1986 Honda NS250R, a screaming little 33kW, two-stroke, 250cc crutch rocket. Back then, the law stated that any bike 250cc or under was suitable for a learner, despite the fact that these two-strokes put out […]
After months of slaving, it is here! Many hairs have been pulled and I’m quite bald now (though some say that’s just due to age) but I am proud to announce the arrival of The Drive: Devil’s Run on iOS (Android version to follow). The game is spread across three stages, all set in an […]
Hello ladies and gentlemen! Remember me? Sorry I’ve been away so long, I have been super busy creating the Oversteer game. There have been many, many changes over these last few months, most notably, the visual style of the game has had a complete overhaul. The game also sports a new name; ‘The Drive – […]

Now, I say diary but I can’t promise I will be updating this overly regularly, as I do have to spend the bulk of my time building the actual game. Right, the beginnings. In 2008, I unfortunately met […]
Sometime OVERSTEER contributor Karl Burnett was recently lucky enough to get a sneak preview of the upcoming awesomeness that is Forza Motorsport 5 on the Xbox One for NZGamer.com and they were kind enough to let us share his conclusions here! Thanks guys! I’ve been a fan of Forza Motorsport since the game’s initial release […]
I loved the Real Racing series. It was the prettiest, most authentic and gratifying racing experience ever to grace an iOS device. Now, however, it’s nothing more than a thief in a ball gown. Real Racing 3 continues along the lines of the first two titles, only this time offers more cars, tracks and […]
For as long as I can remember, I have been playing racing games. It all started back in the early eighties, when my father stupidly brought home a Fountain Force 2 videogame system, unwittingly kicking off a habit of mine that would soon take over my life. One of the games dear old Dad brought […]
