Gran Turismo

Oct 1, 2009

Gran Turismo on PSP is not quite as slick as its PS2 or PS3 brothers and the lack of a career mode is surprising. It's clumsy at times and the quality varies immensely, but it's still a class act. (Also available as a download on the PlayStation Network.)

MX vs ATV Reflex

Dec 1, 2009

Another entry in the popular off-road racing series, Reflex offers a greatly improved physics system.

F1 2009

Nov 16, 2009

Ultimately, it’s an acceptable racer rather than a mind-blowing one. Still, Codemasters has never been under any illusion about F1 2009’s purpose; as a pick-up-and-play racer that daddy and his younglings can use together and as a fan-calming appetizer before the ‘real’ thing next year.

MotorStorm: Arctic Edge

Sep 29, 2009

It's fast, smart and relatively gorgeous - easily one of the best racing games on PSP. Arctic Edge may not reinvent the wheel, but the change of scenery (and platform) has done wonders.

Dirt 2

Sep 8, 2009

While it could use more of a personality, Dirt 2 hits the portable racing mark with fun bite-sized events that get better each level.

Need for Speed SHIFT

Sep 15, 2009

SBK09 Superbike World Championship

Midnight Club: LA Remix

Rockstar London have somehow managed to squeeze two sprawling cities onto a UMD, in this exciting, technically impressive street racer.

MotoGP 08

Need for Speed Undercover

Nov 18, 2008

Does as little as it must to be an adequate port of a console game, and ends up being quite underwhelming.

SBK08 Superbike World Championship

The follow-up to the pretty okay SBK 07 features beefed up bikes and new racing modes.

Pro Cycling Manager - Tour de France 2008

There is nothing like the feeling of the wind passing over your skin tight, spandex uniform. Virtually feel that feeling in this game. Also, you can manage a whole group of these men of low wind resistance and their huge legs.

FlatOut: Head On

Mar 11, 2008

Play this handheld crash orgy instead of causing a huge pileup on the highway. Please.

Ford Off Road

Ford racing goes off road. Featuring 24 different tracks and 12 race modes set over 3 different environments.

MX vs ATV Untamed

Dec 17, 2007

A semi-decent racing game buried under a time-wasting interface and ridiculous unlocking requirements.

Sonic Rivals 2

Nov 13, 2007

An awesome idea for a racer that falls flat due to middling execution.

Sega Rally Revo [PSP]

Developed from scratch for PSP, this arcade-styled racer is aiming to recapture the magic of the 1995 original

Need for Speed ProStreet

Feb 18, 2008

If you can cope with missing modes and customization, then you'll you find one of the better straight-up racing games on the PSP.

Wipeout Pulse

Feb 12, 2008

After a three-year layoff, Wipeout Pulse brings hovercraft racing back to the PSP with a massive new single-player campaign, true online play and the expected slate of post-release downloadable content.

Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli

This racer, based on the Ferrari license is just pulling up to the starting line. If it's anything like the previous Dreamcast model it should take the checkered flag when it launches.
