I have never learned how to drive, but from time to time, a well-meaning friend will tell me that I would be good at it because, 'look, Edwin, you play all those driving games, surely they've taught you the basics'. Here's what driving games have actually taught me: traffic lights are just for show; drifting is the same as cornering; and other cars are there to cushion your bumps when you overshoot a turn. Needless to say, someone whose knowledge of automobiles comes from playing Wreckfest in 2018 should probably not be trusted with the school run. Speaking of which, THQ Nordic has just announced Wreckfest 2 - a new installment of destruction derby with upgraded visuals and animated drivers who react when they get hit by other drivers. Check out the chaos in the announcement trailer below. 8635
