It was one of my favourite cars simply because I could recover from mistakes easily with its ridiculous acceleration and beating faster but less agile cars like the Mercedes SLS AMG was a breeze since I could just out-accelerate them when coming out of a corner with my boosts. Those of you who played Asphalt 8 for years might remember the Citroen DS Survolt, a rather eccentrically shaped car with a unique two-tone colour scheme and its monstrously fast acceleration for its car class. Yesterday i decided to try out Asphalt 9 and see if stuff has been improved on since Asphalt 8, and my findings are.
Since then I have moved on to other games involving more realistic stuff like manual transmission, proper car tuning and proper braking physics (think of something like forza horizon 4), but asphalt has always held a special nostalgic place in my heart.
Asphalt 8 was one of the first proper racing games I jumped into when I was younger.
