Hi,

I have to say, i spend more hours racing GP3, and i like it more and more.

Graphics:
Ii like the graphics, although it looks a bit strange. Its like the
foreground is really 3d and the background are just bitmaps. But have you
seen San Marino and Monza. In San Marino, i like the houses with the red
roofs, great !! And the Alpes that you can see in Monza. Good work.
A pity are the graphics in the pitlane. There are little bugs. Especially
when you pass other pitcrews. Really strange. I think the AI does look
pretty nice, although they are very aggresive...

For those who use  TNT2. Like on the Alpha site is said, the drivers from
nvidia.com do help.

Car behaviour:
Yeah, its a bit easier to do a lap without mistakes. Even without any helps
and on level Ace. But, like someone else said. To do really fast laps, stay
really difficult. Carspinning in 2nd gear is awsome. Also the fact that you
can correct the car when you feel something is wrong, is great.

Data logger:
Is this skipped? Or do i do something wrong. I liked the data logging in
GP2..

Force Feedback:
For my LWFF the feedback is definitly better than F1 2000. Maybe its not
optimal yet because of the use of i force, but i like it anyway.

Colors/Realism:
I think the colors are more realistic then F1 2000 (f1 2000 is a bit to dark
and the colors are too much the same on several tracks). What i dont know,
is if the lines of the tracks of GP3 are more realistic than F1 2000. Does
anybody have an objective comment about this?

Rain:
YEEEEHAAA. Do i have to say more ??!!

Internet play:
***! I like online racing a lot, so its a real big BUG they didnt even
build this for internet play. The reason GC gave (pings are too high) is
bullshit. Look at other racing games. Its is possible for sure. Especially
now more and more people use Adsl.
Can internet play be made by a patch (by someone other than GC) ????

FPS
Better than F1 2000. You feel more speed when you race. In F1 2000 you dont
feel much speed.

Conclusion:
Well....my conclusion is. GP3 and F1 2000 are in their own way the best sims
for F1 racing at the moment. I cant really choose between these. Only F1
2000 has internet play, which i dayly use, and i like that a lot !!!

It's there, exactly the same as GP2.
