Off Road: MTM2 previews

Wow, looks like a huge improvement in graphics.  Hopefully, without a drop
in frame rate  which is marginal now!  Better textures, dynamic lighting,
reflections off water.  Wonder if they modeled the water splash and dust
with transparency....that'd be cool (Vs. current particles.)

Funny, I got a call from MS on this one.  They asked me a bunch of questions
that gave me a good idea what they had in store.  From their questions I can
tell you they are considering:

1.  Tie-in with wrestling stars like Hulk Hogan.  Special trucks for each
wrestler.

2.  Combo, king off the hill, destruction derby kind of battle where you
race to the top of a hill and try to knock the other out of a ring.

3.  Weather.

4.  Force Feedback

5.  Downloadable graphics for cars with wrestling tie-in.   Possible paint
kit.

6.  More customization of vehicles (Springs, tires...etc.)

7.  Better modeling of suspension.

That's all I can recall right now.
