for the older Papyrus Nascar sims, it just came to me, that GPL may
still be a golden egg laying chicken for Papyrus/Sierra in the years
to come :-)
There's been talk about a Nascar sim with GPL physics engine coming
out at some point in the future. Since that is a Nascar sim, it will
again sell in huge numbers and all these old Nascar fans get their
first contact to a really good simulation engine.
Now I am one of those, whom GPL has totally spoiled, and I can't find
similare enjoyment from any other car sim at the moment.
Imagine the huge crowd that has bought the future GPL engined Nascar
sim, who are getting a bit bored by it and are looking into other car
sims at that point.. what is there that offers the same kind of
realism and enjoyment as the future Nascar sim.. ta-dah GPL!
I bet that at least some of those people are going to buy GPL, even
though it represents some bizarre year like 1967 and strange Formula-1
cars. Hell, I'd buy a wheelchair racing-sim, if it was based on the GPL
engine and a realistic world :-)
So here's hoping a future track-add-on for GPL, like there was for
GP2 long time after its first release!
