   Ok, I see Papy do Nascar no more. Is Papy itself also no more? If not,
what's on the horizon for them?

Friend of mine was just at Papyrus.  Many programmers, very busy, but no
clue what they were working on.  Theory is something for consoles, as that's
where the money is :-(

Unfortunately, that is probably close to the truth. Can't blame them.

They have said they are going to do cross-platform games, so whatever it is
should be available for both consoles and PC.  Personally I am glad that
both the NASCAR and IRL licenses are tied up elsewhere, because that means
Papy will have to do something more interesting now.

Not *my* money.
If they're only doing console stuff, I guess I'll just have to pass them by...

I hear they are doing something like a combination of Grand Theft Auto and
Halo. Gran Theft Halo or something... FPS/Driving sim...with a hip hop
soundtrack.... you know more shizzle fo yo nizzle!!!!

Seriously tho, it is a good bet it is an arcade racer for the game boxes,
which had better sell well or Papy will be gone.
