Managed to get a hold of "a" copy of DTR. All i can say is its a
blast!! however, the graphics are nothing to scream about, on a v3 with
450 cpu it runs great all details at 1024.
jus a quick review

This is what he said:

450 cpu it runs great all details at 1024.
He said he has a V3. Last time I checked, that was an accelerator.
Doesnt the glide or D3d mode support that resolution?

Yep, the demo should be out within a week.
Marko;
Superb is all a matter of reference. When gpl was released i did read a lot
of reviews with low scores mainly on the fact that the reviewers did think
the learning curve was to high for anyone not really interested in racing
but just looking for a good fast and furious game. Well i think most people
in this news group will completely disagree with this opinion and will see
the "negative" part (in the eye of the reviewer) of the sim as the most
positive. i know i do. A few years back i did some editing on some send in
pieces from students at the art school i was studying at. Then i came across
this piece of a girl who wrote one of the most stupid things i did ever
read. She wrote about some facts she got out of books "well it's writen down
in a book so it must be thru". I couldn't help sending her a note asking her
if she ever did read "mein kampf" and gave her a change to rewrite her
piece. Point i'm trying to make is that you should not believe everything
you read, this guy gave the game trick style a high score, i can't believe
that someone who give trickstyle a good review has the same kind of taste as
i have, so therefor i just wait and see until the demo comes out and then i
will judge it myself, or if someone with the same kind of reference writes a
good in depth review than i'm willing to believe.
At least i hope it will be good, the physics of gpl togheter with the
graphics of powerslide should make for a good game, we just have to wait and
see i guess.

Well, I just checked out the review,and it's as bad as everyone is saying.
But just how much credence can you put in a reviewer that has to use the
phrase;"total shit" for a description. Seems to me,that maybe he should go
back to school and learn the rest of the English language.

Remember, what most of the "professional" reviewers thought of GPL??
They can review my ass...

Some patches indeed don't work with warez versions. Often a warez
version has an altered .exe file to remove the protection. But as soon
as a patch is released, a cracked patch will come out. Often the same
day the official patch is released.
