GP3, Holy Smoke!!!!

Just got this months PCGamer today, inside was alittle article on GP3 and
also a video on one of the disks. So as most people know the Arrows team has
had a lot of input into the game, the article mentions that drivers from
Arrows recently had the chance to visit Hasbro and test the latest build of
the game. I quote from the article " apparently they got on it straight away
and started tweaking the setup and lowering their lap times, one after
another". They announced the handling was almost "spot on," although the
grip level in the wet was thought to be a little generous.
Shit this sounds pretty good to me, I mean these guys Know what they are
talking about.
I settled down in the evening and thought I would check the disks out and
started with the GP3 video, This totally blew me away, I mean this made me
feel like I was there the atmosphere was incredible.
A couple of accidents one with the Jordan being tagged by an Arrows breaking
the rear wheel off the former with the arrows front spoiler flying off as it
went through the gravel trap.
Just looking at it I get the feeling that theres alot of the earlier series
in there, which has got to be a good point as that is a solid place to build
on.
So roll on the 28th of this month and lets hope this is the one to make
things right on the F1 simulation front.

Looks a bit low-res and *so* GP2 - can't decide if that's a good thing or
not !

That video has been around for quite a while now, it's not new, but it is
very impressive.

Don't believe everything you read, especially when they are getting paid
by Hasbro. What else could they say? I'll believe it when I see it.
