Full-page glossy RT ad in today's Autosport: opposite the contents page
- I doubt that's very cheap, so it's a good sign of commitment.

The slogan - "So real it hurts!" - isn't terribly imaginative, but
it'll do, and frankly I'd prefer time and effort to be spent on the
game than the adverts!

Interestingly, no indication at all in the advert of what formats the
game is available on - I suppose people just assume "PC" these days. No
release date given either.

Not a lot else to say, really, except: "I want this game!!" :-)

I've seen mention of an X-Box release as well.  Anyone from JoWood care to
add details about this?

I don't have a (working) scanner at the moment, I'm afraid, but if
anyone else wants to do that it would be good. It's not the immediate
inside cover (which is a borning BMW ad, I think), but the page after,
left-hadn side full page opposite contents. Looks quite good.
