I for one will not give it any more time as i have got my hands on GP500
from Microprose..and it is AWESOME,no need to give GP500 time,it is AWESOME
straight out of the box.

Also SBK 2000 is only just around the corner,have you seen the
screenshots?..it looks ***y Fantastic...

With these two awesome bike sims..who the hell would want AMA
superbike.??????

MHO of course(and many others)

  having only run the demos of GP500 and SBK2000, I can say the "looks"
of 2000 may be nice but it really has the feel of a tunnel racer.  Now
GP 500(especially in the handlebar mode) really gives a good feeling of
racing.  I'm reserving judgement on AMA.

Yet another person has seen the light.  GP500 is indeed wonderful.

I definitely share your opinion Simon.  The GP500 crew did it right by getting
the demo out well in advance.  The rest of you can look forward to the next 1/2
baked Motorsims release (if they're lucky).  You showed them they could get
away with it.

SBK2000 is not Castrol Superbike 2000!  SBK2000 is EA's upcoming bike
sim seen here:  http://www.racesimcentral.net/
There's no demo available yet of SBK2000.  The demo you're speaking of
is of this game seen here:
http://www.racesimcentral.net/
which is another complete joke of a motorcycle games just like AMA.

Online racers who appreciate the effor that Motorsims is putting into the
online side of things.  One need only look to the posts from ex-TEN racers
who are frustrated with the "new improved" online in N3.  If the online
play works the way they claim, there will be a lot of happy customers.
Maybe not you, but I don't imagine that matters.

It is?  Gee, I just love those arcade style control setups.  No thanks.

Not only the online but also just the fact
that its AMA.
There are many that love the idea of having tracks like Willow Springs ;-)
Motorcycle racing sims will not be truely complete till we have
GP, WSB & AMA.
Would the Cart guys be happy with just F1 & Nascar?

Agreed that it's nice, but as with anywhere else in the business world
results shout where efforts whisper.

Cheers!
