I'd buy the game you suggest in a second.
The closest the PC has come is Viper and Porsche Unleashed, both of
which I still play regularly.
I'll buy WSC, but admit I like the "street racer" type titles.
As far as the "buy a consol suggestion", I'm not about to buy a PS2,
steering wheel, and some kind of desk so I can use it (and can't leave
sitting out in the living room) for one game.

Really, if there was a way to use the physics engine but create new vehicles
and environments easily, that would solve the problem.
Of course, nobody's done it yet, so...
The only -good- wheel for GT3 on the PS2 is the Logitech 'GT3' wheel - which
is a slightly cheaper version of the Red FF wheel, with blue instead of red.
Works on the PS2, and the PC sees it as a red wheel... ;)
Though I do love GT3...I'd also love a computer version at least as good.
One of the ways I like PC games better is the customizations that come out,
and IMO, the sounds in GT3 are flawed...that, and I'd loooooove online
racing. =)

I have high hopes for Toca 3 (forget the actual title) which is a SCGT type
game using the next generation of the outstanding AI from Jarrett & Labonte
Racing (PSOne believe it or not). It is career based sports car racing on
real tracks against a full field of cars. It will be on the PS2, XBOX and
PC (pretty sure about the PC).
I'm tired of waiting for WSC after a few years. I just want to drive it!
I'm worried it won't happen. Didn't they just lose Empire as their
publisher? I hope to see WSC next year, but I'm not holding my breath. At
least with codemaster and Toca 3, we'll probably see it on time Q1 2002.

IMO? No, no...the sounds ARE flawed. =) Last i checked, the C5 racecar did
not sound like a silenced V6. hehe...

Though, the street GT40 isn't bad. Haven't snagged the race one yet. Too
bad it has NO BRAKES. =P
