Driving Games

After playing the games for at least 20 minutes, include your thoughts about what unique experience this type of game offers players in a digital reflection (Blog, Youtube video, Cinch, etc), offer some reflections about the game-play, it's impact, and some details about where you went and what you did. ALSO, (and this is new to this Action Games) find an example of this type of game among many of the free game content providers

I think this is such a cool experience for younger kids.  Could you imagine knowing how to drive before you can actually reach the pedals?  Some of the driving games offer an even more  autonomous experience where you're able to customize all the inner and outer parts of your car.  In this case, all failures are okay because theirs no real people who will get hurt if you crash, no real money spent, no real stop signs run over...  This can make for a great science/physics based experiments, as well as lessons in controlling finances.


I'm having trouble with some of the games that use the arrow keys to move, and I'm not sure whats going on with that.  In my search for examples, I simply went to the search bar and typed in driving and that gave me a descent list of driving games.  Also, if you use addicting games it gives you a rubric of items to consider before play (like how many people have played before you).


I actually spent an entire spring break one year playing a racing game (can't remember which) and getting all of the achievements and unlockables.  I had a pretty sweet 350z by the end!
