Real Racing 3

I've had my troubles with Firemonkeys and honestly wanted to write off Real Racing for good however in time I've come to absolutely love this game. It's by far the best sim style racing game on any mobile platform and possibly only topped by the likes of Mario Kart for best mobile racing game overall in my opinion.

Sure the game isn't without it's issues, this isn't a true sim. They've got some of it right but it's not full on simulation. The collision between cars sucks, damage is pretty meh, speed can feel a little weird, no manual transmission, engine sounds get a little wonky and the AI is idiotic BUT the core feel is there and the graphics are fantastic.

It has a nice selection of real cars and tracks, all done well and all with full interiors. It's career mode is LONG, tons and tons of content. Pacing is slow though, it drags a ton just for the sake of trying to get you to pay but it's still quite playable. It lacks weather and night racing but here's hoping maybe down the line! It features full 22 car grids which is fantastic as many console games don't even achieve that. No pit stops but honestly long races don't work well on mobile anyways. It also has a nice selection of event types, everything from arcadey chase events to more sim autocross.

At the end of the day I really like it even with the F2P annoyances. I'm left wishing I could just pay $5-10 and just be done with all of it but alas be not. I hope in the future EA considers it, the game is sooo good but it would be that much better without the turtle pacing and paywalls.

What do you guys think is the best mobile gaming device today? This includes dedicated devices like 3ds and Vita, as well as smartphones and tablets. Since there are a lot of different models lets just lump smartphones together and tablets together unless they offer something different like say the Xperia Play which has dedicated hardware controls.

So what do you guys say? I'm gonna list some here:

Nintendo 3DS (all models)
Playstation Vita
Nintendo DS (all models)
PSP
Smartphone
Tablet
Wikipad
Nvidia Shield Portable

Please explain why!
