"There is no research into how racing games affect the attitudes of young
drivers. But, Mr Gibson said, there is enough research into risk-taking
behaviour for there to be a concern.
"It's better to be safe than sorry."
If it's THAT better to be safe than sorry, then we need to outlaw cars
alltogether, hot water, hot grease, hot McDonalds Coffee (couldn't resist
that one), air (hey, it might be polluted), water (someone might possibly
trip and jam their head in their glass, and thus drown), etc...
This guy has seen Demolition Man too many times and it gave him idea's.

Another problem pointed out in that story is the stupid situation of cars
like the Enzo as mention not being able to be registered in OZ. We want out
*** supercars!

Yes, however the developers released a version with zombies and green ***
instead of regular pedestrians and it was given the green light by the
censors.... The main problem is that all R-rated games are banned in
Australia - the highest classification is MA15+.

I went negative on Dec 13, 2002(friday the 13th), and have pretty much
stagnated. I think I got to about -2 or so before my system crashed and I lost
all my replays/times. You on the other hand, shot right by me and continue to
pull away... :-(
