rec.autos.simulators

I know this probably isn't specifically suited to this newsgroup but
since everyone is talking about new sims such as a Rally sim, Touring
cars and especially a 24 hour race, my idea was: How about a Tour De
France game? Imagine some of the in game features:

Magnificent SVGA scenery of France
Setup your bike before each day depending on type of terrain and race
Variable weather: From Hot weather to Snow!
Crowd as obstacles
If you crash into another rider you enter Fight Mode (As in NHL 96)
Up to 200 player Network Play!
A game that will literally last for weeks!

As you can see i'm sure it would be a best seller.

Not only that, but a frame rate of about 10-12 in SVGA and all detail
would seem that slow.

Hey it could be a game if there was a way to get an exerise bike hooked
up to it.Then it really would be realistic and a good way to get in
shape>

Competitions could break out as users log into a multiplayer service
and run races in *** locations against other humans.

Will this make me exercise?   Nah....

And get your partner to regularly throw wasps in your mouth, and swing a mattress
perilously close to your handlebars to simulate lorries.
