Sense of speed in driving games...

In most driving games you can get a lack of speed sensation. Got flat out in some games and it seems little different from going moderately fast.

On the other hand you get some Action Adventure games which can involve driving and you get in your "common or garden" hatchback and go along at seemingly insane speeds (Just Cause 2 comes to mind but it is not the only one) and it still takes an age to get places. Get into a fast car and you barely have time for reactions!

I drive a pretty quick car in real life, but in any game that lets me drive my car virtually it feels like driving through treacle. Most racing games don't feel quick until you're doing close to the double ton.

Burnout dominator was stupidly fast when you supercharged the traffic helped that sensation a lot.
