Is it ok?

GPL is the standard... TOCA2, SCGT and CMR are great fun, but hows LEMANS 24
HOURS?

I once tried the demo: it sucked bigtime

Well,

I don't know how much the game was affected by the "promised sim, delivered
arcade"-backlash, but the reviews it got here were pretty negative.

I tried it myself at the software store and, while not all that bad, I
didn't think it warranted a purchase and I certainly wouldn't recommend it
to anyone in light of the other titles currently available.

If you feel you need a new racing fix, might I suggest GP500, SBK2000,
RC2000 or, if you'd like some relaxed realism (just a little, mind ;-)),
NFS:PU instead.

Jan.

You might find some info about it on  rec.autos.arcaderubbish   :)

Seriously though, if the demo was awful.....

I actually bought the thing after a rave review in PC Format in the UK  .
Realistic physics MY ARSE. What a load of ***. I haven't touched it since
January.

I'll only buy a game now after reading reviews from the punters in this NG .
At least you can rely on them for honesty unlike so many mags.

I have to say that I have high hopes for GP3 and WSC though , when they're
finally released.

It was quite crap...although it wasnt really that bad until I realised there
was NO MULTIPLAYER what so ever.....
