Not much new stuff... new car paints schemes, a couple of new tracks
(only of Winston Cup Series btw)...

It seems to be mainly aimed at new sim drivers or people that found N4 a
bit too difficult (i.e. including new driving aids and driving lessons).

One cool feature: the possibility of adding your own sounds (music?) and
graphic to replays.

$50 US still seem a bit steep, but then again other *** companies
also sell "new" products every year (just look at EA: F1 2000, F1 2001,
the whole NHL Hockey franchise, etc).

This is a good thing; just a few tweaks to N4, all done by January '02, and then the Papy crowd have plenty of time then to spend on
OTHER pursuits... ;-)

Any bet's on whether it'll be backwards compatible with N4 online?

Yet another item from Papy, well Sierra, that I believe could be a patch.
Maybe a large patch but there are plenty of GAMES out there that have large
patches. I'd rather pay $20 for a 70m patch than go to a store and buy a $50
patched version of what I already have.  I have always supported Papy and
will continue to do so, but in many ways I feel were being robbed by Sierra,
AGAIN.

I can appreciate the sentiment, Charlie -

But my own (biased/twisted) view is that the better returns Sierra can milk out of their cash cow, the more agreeable they'll be to
Papy's spending time & resources on something more palatable for those of us of the open wheel/right turn persuasion.  It's a common
refrain from musicians; give the publishers a hit or two and you can do what you want with the rest of the disc.

So - bring on the "B" side!

SB

PS - Be interesting to see if N2002's online-compatible with N4, eh?

Either that or,

"the more people buy what should be a patch, the more stupid and gullable
the average consumer will prove the Sierra theory on how to milk a milked
cow"
