Force feedback combined with the low sensitivity of a proper wheel helps a lot when trying to keep a car under control.

Damn Lineage II. I always shy from driving games because of the early days of mouse/KB were very awkward on them. It doesn't help that I refuse to buy a wheel. Same with flying games and a flight stick. Games like the GTA series though don't really require decent driving skills, and in fact, seem to be hampered by them. Do any of these car games really steer decently on a mouse/KB? mmmm elf boobies… om nom nom nom. Damn Lineage II.

I've seen bars of soap understeer less than that Boxter. If you want realism (and indie) have a look at <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdldZlNDm80" rel="nofollow">Live for Speed</a>.

I bought it yesterday, sadly it's a bit light on content, but it's a lot of fun (very satisfying controls). Reminds me a bit of Stunt Car Racer. Demo/trial and screenshots here: http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=48598&mode=thread&order=0 X Motor Racing seems interesting too, will definitely check it out.
