Warning: Williams F1 Racer

AVOID AVOID AVOID!!! I just gave it a try - I chose 'Dutch Track' which is an extremely poor done version of Zandvoort - the layout hardly is like the real one, and no, the real Zandvoort is NOT shattered with windmills! I won my first race on my first try, with the AI on the hardest level. About 2 minutes margin on number 2. On a 6 laps race :-/ Then I turned on the force feedback.. The game started and I didn't know how fast I should press the escape key since my Momo started to make REALLY scary sounds! Ofcourse, the physics are laughable. Utter crap. Shame of my $1 cd. Andre

I didn't expect it to be much since 1) it is a Hot Wheels game, and 2) it is by THQ. :)

THQ made MBTR which is very good <[email hidden]> a �crit dans le message de news: [email hidden]...

I gave the MBTR Zolder-demo a try and found it to be more or less utterly crap... Could someone please enlighten me on what was so great with MBTR ? -- ed_

Some people will hate the fact that you can't go faster then 100mph, but it is really challenging. You have to perfect your corner entry and exit, it needs total concentration to push the truck to it's limit. The tracks are pretty cool, also. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimato Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...
