Well damn! :)
I stopped by Best Buy on the way home from work today and paid 39.99 for it.
EB was only 10 minutes away from Best Buy, only it's in the mall and I HATE
malls.
Aww heck, worth the extra 10 bucks to stay away from the mallies.

Yes in a way, but I still find it unacceptable. Sure, it is smoother allowing
easier control. But it is also crawling along. Real racing is somewhat about
timing. A variable timeclock kills this. One time through a turn, it is
fast, next when crowded, slow. I've ranted on this subject for years, and
it really is manageable (though still a stooopid choice) so I'll take a
breather now :-)
I agree, weather is no big deal, and I don't think that some track
inaccuracy is either unless you have been used to driving the actual track!

Which is why I can't stand F1 2000 ;)

Yeah, but it is still GP2... Just face it for whatever reason no new
modern F1 sim will satisfy you.

That is what I thought... You are just basicly a trouble maker.
F1 2000 is great and the tracks are not that bad. You are like
a troublesome incect now :-)

Absolutely. And GPL is awesome with FF. Just great. But I find that
I don't really play the game as the era just doesn't interest me, and
I am not into the tracks at all. I want modern F1 :-)
So GPL gets removed too...

Wow. I didn't realize that. Too bad. I hope he gets it sorted out.

Absolutly not!! F1 racing is not only about timing (as Dave mentioned)
but about quick reflexes. Driving in slow-mo or super-slo-mo doesn't
cut it... And if GP3 has this type of engine design, then it will be the
first in the series to not get purchased by me. Heck, if past performance
is *ANY* indicator, I expect GP2 to totally suck online and have not
FF or 3D support. The engine sound should be cool though :-)

And exactly what questions do you have about my interpretation
of these posts with regards to GP3??? See below...

It was his anticipation of GP3 coming out later this year. Like
GP3 is going to be something...
I think I read exactly what the poster intended me to read. F1 2000
will hold him over until GP3 comes out. I think just about everyone
got that much out of it.
Oh no!!! I hope you were not permanently damaged by my reply :-)
Don't worry about it, it won't be the last time :-)

Obviously GP2 was a typo.

Would CPR then be regarded as the definitive CART sim since ICR2 never
existed? Being the best of a sorry lot doesn't necessarily equate to
excellence.
F1 2000 is a somewhat entertaining racing game with decent physics,
but let's not put it on a pedestal just because there is a vacancy.
