Driveclub doesn't feel like a sim at all to me. It falls a little bit more on the arcade end of the spectrum, but still not quite arcadey enough for my taste.
God damn gorgeous game though. I'm having a good time just firing it up with dynamic weather and sped up day/night cycle and zipping around time trials. If some random PSN sale puts the upgrade at the right price, I could see it, but I still think I'd prefer NFS Rivals.

Definitely not a sim nor is it full arcade either. It sits right in the middle, which is fine by me. And yes, it is a gorgeous game. Love those weather effects.

Well, in the Too Little, Too Late category, there is now a BIKES expansion for Driveclub out today. It costs $19.99, but is "only" $14.99 if you own even the PS Plus version of the original game.
Gotta admit, it kinda looks fun.

Should we get the Daggers back for one more ride?

Well we had the club, but I don't think it went very far.
It would be cool of them to make all the DLC free (or dirt cheap) since it's going to be almost useless in a year.
Going back and reading through this thread was kinda crazy. I almost forgot how bad they fucked up the launch. It wasn't that great of a game to begin with, but it never recovered from that launch.
