Codemasters touring car game track list mocked
Rich#8 posted a news item about Codemasters' upcoming touring car game and its large track list. Posters mocked apparent errors such as Zandvoort listed under Germany and Monza under France, while Joe Marques noted the mistakes came from the news site, not Codemasters' own press release. ymenard warned that "Nurburgring (Long)" meant the GP circuit, not the Nordschleife.
Automated summary.

There's a round of the German touring car championship (and the F3's, I
think) at Zandvoort Andre, hence the confusion perhaps.

I guess so.. still I'm kinda worried to see German flags when we
select Zandvoort..
Oh well, very impressive list, looking forward to this one.

The funniest thing about this thread is that gamingexcellence.com may have
screwed up the press release by listing tracks under the wrong countries,
yet many assume Codemaster is at wrong/clueless. Look at the HG press
release, it's has the right tracks under the right countries:

No, the fact that some people might think it's the "real" Nurburgring when
said as (Long).

so they should avoid using the correct name, because someone can
mistake for something completely different?

less intelligent than yourself, might be deluded by the Long conotation into
thinking that the Long Nurburgring circuit is really just that, long. Of
course you need not have worried because at least here in RAS, your first
point would be groundlessssssssssssssss :)
dave henrie
Look at the HG press
So what your saying is, even though you didn't fall for it, others who are
less intelligent and more gullible might have the mistaken idead that
Codemasters actually had a clue? Of course we appreciate your
well-intentioned correction don't we Franc??

I'm just surprised by the magnitude of the "old" Nurburgring conspiracy. <g>
Think of the great expense and time Codemaster dedicated to this clever
ruse: several months, 56 employees, and several million dollars. All done
to fool the dozens of fans thinking "old" Nurburgring might be in the box.
Quite a sinister and elaborate plan. And to think, they ALMOST pulled it
off. ;0)

Yes, I care about my inferior fellows of this world, the poor people who buy
racing games by looking at the track list on the box <wink> ;-P
