N3 in the UK - more thoughts

Further thoughts after three hours play

- Tracks accurate down to the line of bricks on the start line at Indy
- Very easy to get into and race for anyone familiar with N2
- Quite honestly it's so playable I'm going offline for another race

Best Wishes

The US posts for this game have, if anything, underplayed what an
improvement it is.

At last we have a sequel to a sim that focuses like a laser beam on the
GAMEPLAY shortcomings of its predecessor. The graphics are a big
improvement, but it is the raceability of the game that is most remarkable.

Nascar3 is definitely an evolution rather than a revolution. This is to be
applauded; taking a game engine that was basically right in N2 and tweaking
it to the nth degree.

The whole "feel" of the game is much more intense and lifelike. In fact I'd
say it's every bit as atmospheric as GPL, if not more so.

This is one game that will not be put back on the shelves of my local EB
branch. It is, quite simply, a gameplay classic and an absolute joy for
anyone who loved N2 but wanted a little more realism.

Well done Papyrus - are you releasing NL in the UK?

Best wishes
