I can not find my GP2 CD, I have my case and manual sitting here
but I for the life of me can not find my CD. (been about 1 year since
I played it so only god knows where it is now)

Do you know where I can pick up a new copy pretty cheap? I am
afraid that if I went down to Best Buy or something they would either
not have it or still be charging $30 for it.  Anyone know of someplace
I can pick it up for about $15?

Thanks

        I paid 15 with shipping off of Ebay.

        Try searching Yahoo Shopping, I know there was a store that had it.

I'm not sure this ageing beauty could ever dissapoint IMHO. I have just
recently re-installed GP2 on my new system and have to admit that I did
wonder if after having been spoilt by recent sims like GPL, N3, Mobil Rally,
etc whether GP2 would still hold much appeal... fear not this is still one
of the best ever. It took all of 10 minutes to get back all the old feelings
for GP2 and having also downloaded loads of new tracks, carsets, etc I can
definately say that it will continue to hold my interest for some time to
come. Has to be the most well supported (unofficially) sim around.

Well unfortunately I could not find it on Ebay, Yahoo Auctions
or Yahoo Shopping.

 Maybe Microprose still. They should be able to replace it. Maybe
Hasbro now though. Just email and ask, can't hurt.

It is certainly available in the UK on a budget label.

Super-budget, in fact - most places I've looked have it for UKP5.

You've just bought the best racing sim ever, period. Go to GP2.com and start
downloading.

As for the graphics, don't listen to anyone on this. They may not be
3d-accelerated, but they still look great, the replays are fabulous, and most
important of all, Crammond and company somehow manage to get the depth
perception just right. Try CPR sometime and see if you can figure out where to
start breaking. With GP2 it's easy. Can't wait for GP3!
