games people play:

CT Racer
SEGA

Games2Win has brought SEGA's popular multiplayer car racing game to India. CT Racer players can drive in either Seoul or Shanghai and race on streets, tracks and outdoor terrains. The game allows players to customise every element ~ starting from the cars to engines, tyres and embellishments ~ stickers, wheel caps, etc. The game also allows players to create 'guilds' or groups.
Rather than charging a monthly subscription fee, the game is free to play and the only charges are 'micro costs' ~ when consumers want to buy new cars, additional car parts and decorative items. Payments can be made using cash cards used at cyber cafes and ISP accounts. Games2win is also introducing its own 'game cards' that will be available in denominations of Rs 50 and Rs 100. CTRacer Online has been developed by Hyundai Digital Entertainment.
Here are a few tips before you start skidding…
Driving fast and reaching top speed isn't everything. It's important to upgrade your car's handling. This can be done by installing "driving up" parts;
Suspension plays the most important part in the handling of a car. Keep a soft suspension if you want the car to over steer and a hard suspension if you want it to under steer;
Do not expect to get good grip while making sharp turns. The cars drift while they turn. Remember, you do not need to use the handbrake to drift. Learn to use the momentum of the car;
Follow the racing line on every track and in every race;
While increasing the power of the car, remember that engine and charger will give you the maximum increase;
The "dress up" parts and "accessories" do not improve the performance of the car. They make the car look good; and,
Rather than crashing into a wall or an opponent, use the brakes.
