Hi,
   I read this just now at avault.  This title sounds like Pro Sports Car
from ISI, but some elements also sound different.  It also has a spring
1999 release data. (we'll just call it tentative!)  Could EA be
publishing another sports car game besides Pro Sports Car?  and I thought
sports car racing was in trouble!

No, I think this is a different title.  It says it's being produced by Westwood
Pacific.  Also it mentions over 45 cars and teams and I don't think PSCR has
that many and that it's being made for PSX.  This seems to be a game I heard
about a couple months ago with IMSA cars or something.  I'm not quite sure.
Maybe they'll have the WSC series in the game.

The name of Pro Sports Car Racing has been changed to Sports Car GT, and the
release date has been pushed back to 1Q 99.

C-ya.

I remember *** had 2 sports car game coming, one just for the PC
(Professional Sports Car Racing) and another for PSX (Sports Car GT). Now
both titles belong to EA. It might be that the 2nd Sports Car GT is gonna be
out for PSX and PC now. Or they are renaming Professional Sports Car Racing
to Sports Car GT, and releasing (PSCR) to the PC and the old Arcade Sports
Car GT for the PSX. Either way I'm really confused on what the hell is EA
doing.

This is indeed ISI's PSCR, now titled Sports Car GT.  EA/Westwood is the publisher.

...gee, as if the REAL PSCR didn't have enough trouble with name recognition!  =P

Cheers!

Marc, do you have any idea what the hold up is with this title? It seems to be
taking forever to hit the market.

Hi Don,

ISI had been targeting x-mas, but for reasons I'm not privy to they've moved it
back a month or so.

Cheers!
