Re: Assetto Corsa Competizione Available Now on Steam Early Access

Yes... at the time of writing its basically a tech demo for me - my wheel's not working, doesn't support my controller and there's almost zero control customisation for keyboards, 1 track and 1 car...

Re: AO International Tennis

This game / developer is a really good example of how to fix a badly launched product...
