IF YOU HAVE 3D CARD AND DRIVING WHEEL, THEN YOU DONT LIKE GP2 (I mean AFTER
MGPRS2)
BUT, if like to drive joystick (easier than RS2), and you like only 1 view
(cockpit), your 3d card was burn, and you want less and easier setup
choises, there is only GP2 for you.
GP2 also have lot of real new tracks in the net, hundres I think......
My win98 ans Cele450 crash all a time with GP2 (where is the
patch..boys..-), but my choice is RS2.

You've never driven GP2 with all driving helps turned off, have you?

I like GP2, even that I drive GPL nowadays...with wheel and 3d card...

I did, I have GP2, F1RS, and MGPRS2...and MGPRS2 is closer at some points to the
real life F1. GP2 was a little bit too forgiving, with having a good balance
even with default settings.
Although, I would have liked MGPRS2 to be a LOT better in default settings, the
cars are way too much oversteering! I got fed up of only passing my spare time
to get the settings to work. But once you have a good setting, the car really
handles well, but don't touch the grass while turinig! :+)

Also, the spins are a bit exagerated in both F1RS and MGPRS2, and making a 180
or 360 is far from in the real life...looks more like my car!

So you can stick with MGPRS2, wait for GP3...if it's ever released! And there is
also RS3 coming out in September-October.

Cheers!
