>We'll see when final version is released...

Ah, but that won't be the same as the screenshots, will it. Still, to
go back to the point I originally made, while you and I may have to
wait to see the finished version to make such a value judgement, some
others have already seen SCGT. You shouldn't presume that everyone's
knowledge base is the same as your own.

I know others for whom I have equal respect who would disagree with
that, but we'll see in the fullness of time.

Cheers!

Hi,
    I looked at the screenshots on the site, is there a***pit view in
this title?  Has anyone seen one yet?

Later,
John

that's impossible with your starts.. I bet that if I start at the back of a
20car pack I can still pass you into T1 with your starts <g> :)

Naw even with a Truck I would still beat you there ;-)

Automatic pits ;-P

Yes well I have some extra bucks this week from some overtime work ;)

Agreed...not game-ish. Also, don't be discourged by the external view.

>Must be you...Game-ish it isn't.  ;)


>> Hmmm... is it just me or is it a game-ish odor from SCGT??

I learned my starts from the best at those type <g> ;-)

I got dibs on the semi...ooooooooooooh that would be so sweet; I don't know how
I would survive the ordeal, but if I did I would run into your parked truck as I
cross s/f line...nice effect is all :-).

More time for me to stew over your reckless driving. :-)

Just to hard to stop though, isn't it? ;-P

SCGT is being developed by Image Space Incorporated and now is being
published by EA (not EAsports), because *** has sold all it's games to
EA. But the fact that EA is publishing this game doesn't say it's a bad
game. ISI is completely new to EA. SCGT is being developed by some people
who have a lot of experience in making Simulations for Car factories etc.
And EA hasn't published earlier game of them so you don't know if the game
is good or not. And according to some very experienced Sim Racer's
this sim is going to rock.

I never said it was.

Your talking about Electronic Arts right?  If so, ever hear of NFS I, II, & III
or Lotus turbo racing?
