I'm thinking about getting a driving game, but I just want some opinions on:
1. Platform (xbox, ps2 or ps3 or PC)
1a. If PC, what will I need for chip speed, graphics card, memory, display size
2. Controls
2a. Specialized seats_necessary? cost?
3. Software - which games are fun, which ones are junk. I'm mostly interested in track simulators right now.
BTW, I have never had anything but a macintosh, so any opinions on the mac platform when it comes to gaming would be nice. I've never been much of a gamer, either, but I was playing with a setup recently and I thought I'd maybe look into getting something together. I was having a blast, and I was thinking that instead of fixing the AC on my 911, this might be a better bang for the buck.

If anyone wants to send pix of their setups that would be a bonus.
