Regardless what one thinks of Pod or F1. Motoracer is worth buying, especially
if you with it's internet/networking capabilities.

Get Motoracer its a very nice and funny little game!

Oh man .. they all rock *** my system. Pod is SILKY smooth,
graphics and the car physics rock .. its not a 'hyper speed' race
game, the speed, acceleration, power etc of the cars is more realistic
.. and new tracks are being released for it (plus a reverse mode for
all tracks).
Motoracer is super fast and smooth, easy to control with a joystick
and just plain FUN!!
F1 is great on my system .. but others seem to have problems with it.
I'd get a demo copy and try it before you buy it.
POD will rock multi player, I've not tried it yet .. I would recommend
POD and Moto for sure. If you have a fast machine you cant go wrong.
Keep in mind I have a p200mmx with 3DFX card.
Peace.

Forgot to tell ya . you can download the POD demo from UBIsoft web
page .. I think its www.ubisoft.com .. not for sure though.

Carmaggeddon's physics are not 1000 times better than POD's because
they're not all that different. Same arcadey lack of physics feeling.
I'm sorry, but the only person not saying much here is you.

Meet other Moto Racers by going to #motoracer on any EFnet IRC.
Unlike XvT, Moto Racer actually plays really well in 2-4 players on the
internet. I've been having a blast.

POD is the worst racer ever made, avoid it like the plague. I'm still
trying to figure out how they made a game that has both an extremely
high frame rate and absolutely NO sensation of speed. It really
stinks, next to POD even the dog NFS 2 looks good.

Thanks, Rob
DO NOT GET POD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some time when I have an hour I will list all the bugs and problems with
the game.
Multiplay is the worst I have ever seen. I mean the worse. Real Bad.
The game is OK for single play...if you like chasing ghosts around the
track ten feet above the other cars with the 3DFX.
The AI is just bump and grind....Blows.
Do not get this game.
R:
Yes it has both TCP/IP and IPX protocols,

It's all around 3d web pages.
Try http://hardware.3dreview.com/3dfx/
It's Operation Voodoo which I feel is the best 3dfx page. But you can get MR
there, they also have a very fast OC3 server.
