In the world of internet games racing games have become a great category to look at since these games are not as violent as fighting games and are approved by parents. The age level of racing games goes from 4 to 20+ according to the players age several games have been developed to increase the amount of tension and competition he/she has to face in order to advance to the next level.

In the stand alone console section here are those who delight themselves with entertainment applications such as Need for Speed, this particular game delivers extraordinary graphics and several levels. While such games may be popular, online communities have not fallen behind. Today we can play free online games such as "Diesel and death" which is a flash application where the main player races on a motorcycle against the computer, the main twist to this game is that your opponent can shoot you with several types of weapons and bring you down, the best strategy to keep yourself alive is to stay close (but not ahead) of the motorcycle you are competing against and just at the very last minute give it all and win.

A variation of motorcycle racing can be seen in "Bike-mania" where there are several obstacles which you must overcome in order to advance to the next level, the hardest part is to try to control your bike and not crash while going up or down of an obstacle which may be a big boulder, a rock or a set of barrels. An even trickier version is called "Bike-mania on Ice" where you must jump through several ice cracks and several Igloo in order to advance from level to level and since you are now dealing with ice getting full control of the bike is very hard.

If bikes are not your style then you might want to try car racing, in this category there are games such as "Extreme racing" which are not very hard to master if you have good reflexes, if you want to bring it up a notch then you might want to try the popular online game called "Deadly racing" where the driver must run over people (remember its just a game!) and crash against several cars in order to gain points, in this game you will even go up against war tanks so advancing from one level to the other is quite difficult. Unlike many other car racing games, this one is unique because you don't control the car with your keyboard but with the mouse.

Arcade games have sure come a long way from the few selection we knew a few years ago, with the ability to digitize and turn these arcade applications into flash games a whole new world of entertainment is available to everyone through the power of the web.
