...for me is not whether it is Sierra or Empire (the same thing ultimately), whether it is actually September vs. August or November, but that Amazon is showing it as $29.99........$20 less than NR2002, for example. Please tell me I am panicking unnecessarily here.... Marc -- **************************************************************************** Marc Collins [email hidden] Your mouse has moved.

If you are worrying about it at all you are panicking unnecessarily :) "Marc Collins" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Xd648.17291$[email hidden]... > ...for me is not whether it is Sierra or Empire (the same thingultimately), > whether it is actually September vs. August or November, but that Amazonis

I guess I should have expected this sort of comment. How many more official or semi-official signals do we need to at least acknowledge it is legitimately in production? I don't need any more. But I am willing to acknowledge that a significant percentage of partially completed projects never see the light of day--but there is no reason to pick on WSC in particular for that.

So it isn't only expected to be good but (relatively) cheap as well :-) I do remember Chris talked once about the idea that WSC could be build with a starterspack and lots of add-ons. Kinda like we bought our Scalectrix slotcar sets. Maybe that explains the price. A basic pack and the first add-on might make for a total of $49.99 Just a thought Hans van Dam
It's going to be cheap because it was developed originally to be used on a rendition video card LOL. Don Burnette "Phillip Malphrus, Jr." <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I have been one of the more vocal opponents of NR2002's high price tag. However, when looking at WSC, one of the biggest savings is the lack of professional licensing fees for leagues. There is no Nascar to pay, no FIA, only the tracks and individual car makers.(plus adverts of course) so by NOT making a FIA Sportscar sim, or by not signing up the Le Mans' name, they save a ton of $$ just another thought. dave henrie
