It was there - beyond that, no comment. :(

Agreed.

There's a reason for that - I can't count! Shit, was Friday the 12th...?
Damn, damn damn!

Cheers! :)

The game WAS at Silverstone, but not in the form MPS expected or wanted.
As for the release date, we were both wrong - it was July 10th in
Germany.

Cheers!

Says who?  Microprose?  I've seen many postings on Compuserve saying
that it was not there, I myself was there for all three days, and saw
no sign.  If it was there, WHERE?  Silverstone information had no
record of MPS being there; I didn't see so much as a box anywhere.

If Microprose have a marketing department, their heads must be so far
up their bottoms that they can see the backs of their own teeth.

: As for the release date, we were both wrong - it was July 10th in
: Germany.

I haven't seen anyone who claimed to have got it before Friday 12th?

Gabe, GP2, in one word...AWESOME.
GRAPHICS set a new standard. The drving is great.
The sound is best of all.
Only one gripe...we want MUSIC during the race. The
music is darned good, can't we have a music patch...(Grin).

I highly recommend GP2, and with a THRUSTMASTER T2 it is
something beyond.

Thanks

PS Runs really nicely on a P 6 200.....hehehehe

NO! No music during the race please!!

I bought it yesterday and to my surprise it runs quite well in 486/66 with
VGA and low details and textures.

Fantastic game!
