Anyone know where I can get some info on this game? Looks similar to Gran
Turismo.
Thanks
As for it being similiar to GT...no. Its based on the real PSC racing with
real race cars (quite a few have been licensed), damage, real tracks, etc.
I don't think, from information I have heard, that it will have a feature
like GT/Viper Racing does...but I may be mistaken.
There is some info there as well as an interview with the Vice President of
ISI (company who made the game) Gjon Camaj.
As to it being published by EA means nothing as to what the game will be
like. Like a book, which has a writer and publisher. A game has the
writer(s) and the publisher. The publisher works with the advertising and
the packaging and the shipping to other stores. The writer(s) write the
code, and make the graphics and so on. Two totaly different departments.

Yeah, I read it...wasn't terribly impressed.
The writer(s) write the code? Laugh. How about software developers,
software engineers, etc DESIGN and DEVELOP code. We just don't adhocly
write the code. As to the developer/publisher....Yes, they are seperate
companies...however, the publisher can make demands/suggestions/etc of the
developer. So yes, the publisher does have quite a bit of weight in
determining the outcome. I'd suggest going to www.gamasutra.com as they had
a real nice article awhile back on the publisher/developer gambit.
GamaSutra is a game development site...so its usually of interest to
programmers, me, but might give some insight to gamers on the daily lives of
those behind their favorite or least favorite game. :)
And yes, EA did acquire the rights to publish the game from ***
Interactive. Yes, there has been larger promotion of Nascar Revolution and
SBK than SportsCarGT. For a game thats about to ship there is no mention of
the game on www.ea.com, nor is the www.sportscargt.com finished...it still
says 'Complete Website Coming Soon.' <grin>

This game will be out about the same time the USRRC and the PSCR agree on a
rules package.
