Not for me. I don't know how to make setups, and I have no skill for painting
the cars. Besides, I'm not a good enough driver yet to take advantage of the
different physics between cars. I don't know what would do it, but it's going
to take a lot more than THAT to make me want it.

I wonder. It's N2002, and not N5. I recall N1999 was not N3, and really
not much of an upgrade to N2. At least not as far as the physics goes.

So is N2002 to N4 what N1999 was to N2?

The reason for this is that they keep coming out with expansion packs for
it. If one of the expansion packs catches your eye, such as the new "Hot
Date", you still need to buy the original in order to use it, so they cash
in that way. Eventually I imagine you will be able to buy a set of CDs with
all the stuff (original plus the three expansions) for some lower price.

You ask me? Lol. I'll say yes. But nobody really still
don't know anything, apart from what you allready said.
And you said, that we had in the past one Nascar title
from Papyrus that included year number, and that it wasn't
new Nascar, but only previously realized Nascar with
Busch and CTS addons.
BTW, a lot of people talk that this physics is good
enough for them, and that they acctually need more series,
more tracks, and improuved AI.

That's fine if you want to pay 50 bucks for an N4 rehash with new cars and
maybe a couple of new tracks, but i sure the hell won't. We've been down
this road with Sierra/Papyrus before with how many versions of N2? And don't
tell me N3 was new, because it was far from it. Now we're going to see the
same thing with N4 and N2002 is just the start. In the end, it's going to do
what they're looking for and that's make easy money because it will sell to
average Joe Customer and that's fine. Oh...and the only reason internet play
is worth anything is because of the end users, not Papyrus or Sierra.
