FFS, Bruce, I just offered an opinion based on the trailer, which is
all anyone can do at this point.  I'm not sure why you're getting all
up in arms about it.

    This is twice in a week I've seen people imply that you should buy a sim
so that you can see for yourself how bad it is.

    WTF?

    So then what Bruce? Maybe -

    "Hi everyone. I went out and got the 'Best Thing Since Sliced Bread
Racing Sim' and I agree with you all - it's a complete waste of money!".

    ??????????????

    We have had ghost marketers in here hyping specific sims - Bruce is now
a ghost for all sims! LOL.

Hehe, yep, you're right of course. Like Bruce has never been influenced
by a review!

Nope....I don't think I ever have. Not for a computer game.
But then, I have had some rubbish which was bought on a whim! Too much
disposable income, perhaps.

Also, between 1989 and 1998, I was involved with a computer-entertainment
retailer and could "test" games to my heart's content.
Over the past seven years I have only bought a handful of "games" (mostly
Papyrus), one of which I was involved with at the beta level. Others that
have passed across my HDD have usually been sourced by my son (very handy!),
a notable exception being Grand Prix Legends and I didn't need a review to
buy that....it was going to be bought from the first day I read about its
development.

But if I *were* to be influenced by reviews, there is only one source that
would hold that power over me, and that is the magazine Computer ***
World. An exceptionally-fine magazine in a ***-world of journalistic
crap.
