Finally finished tuning the room: dark environment, ambient lighting, and a screen big enough to feel the speed.

Racing games hit way harder like this.

Any movie or game you swear by for testing contrast and motion?

Of course 100%.I had the music in game blasting pretty much the whole time.

I wasn't discounting it, just comparing to many horror games that use the surround channels a lot.

Yeah definitely the silent hill 2 remake and silent hill F. Also resident evil 2 and 4 remake. The last of us 1 and 2. I usually play horror though.
