Does this bug the s#$t out of anyone else? Why, why, why? With damage, this racer would easily be great... as it stands, IMO, it's good, but lacking. Now, you just have a bunch of mobile guardrails..

Motor manufacturers grant licences to games companies usually under the premise that they do not show the crap getting beaten or trashed out of it Doug

A shame! First I thought it was because I was in Arcade mode, then in Gran Turismo mode... no change. A dark spot on the fine game, certainly. It's so much fun just blasting the engine, jumping from a bridge, at times. :) Ruud van Gaal Free car sim : http://www.marketgraph.nl/gallery/racer/ Pencil art : http://www.marketgraph.nl/gallery/
That may be true, but then I'd rather have a game full of ficticious cars that *can* be damaged! Don't get me wrong - GT3 is still a *whole* buncha fun.... Douglas Ellison wrote:

Lazy - or it wasn't in the budget. Too bad, it's fairly good otherwise... ymenard wrote:
