The warez version of GP3 ****IS**** the final version that you will be
wasting your money on. The warez version was put together on July 13th
from the last version of the game before it went out to production, so
the one you buy is going to be exactly the same game as you have now.
And if they ever put out any patches (which seems unlikely given their
track record) there will likely be very minimal improvements, so the
game is and will always be "buggy".
Also, even if the warez version wasn't the final version (and it is)
it would still have to have been taken from a very recent version of
the game, and since it's taken years to come up with what's there now
how much improvement do you think they'd manage to add to it in a few
weeks? not ***y much is the answer.
Either way the game is a huge dissapiontment, i'll keep the warez on
my machine long enough to see what the new carsets look like when
people start cranking them out, but i'll never buy it. And i for one
don't buy into the "the more you play it the more it grows on you"
theory, because all that's saying is that after playing it for long
lengths of time people just get used to the crappy graphics and lame
physics and are just settling for mediocrity, probably falling into a
semi concious state where they think they're back in 1996!. Hell, i
could pop in an old Nintendo racing game from 1989 and play it for
hours and probably have some fun, but as soon as i turned on my pc and
played any real racing sim i'd get hit with a hard dose of reality.
All you guys who have been saying how great the GP3 is after playing
for a long time try this - play GP3 for half an hour, then shut it
down, and play GPL or SCGT or F12000 or F1RS etc.. and then tell me
how great GP3 is, if you do that and still think GP3 is a great racing
sim i demand to know what *** you are taking.
