It's a new "arcade" racer from Xicat (publisher of X-plane), programmed by Inca Gold. For $20, it can't be THAT bad, can it? -- --address below zigzaged to foil [email hidden] harvesters-- K C A G E C T DOT O | Kasey Chang / PC Renaissance Man S H N AT X I E C M | Gamer / Trekker / IT Developer If it looks too obvious, it probably is. -- anonymous
Suppose it depends on how you define THAT. <g> Actually, there is a demo available that provides a pretty good idea what one might expect from the full title. I found it to be a lot like London Racer. While the cars are crude, the sense of speeding down a freeway at night is pretty decent. One could do worse with $20.

Remove "hi" from address or it will bounce....
I agree. Its fun for $20. Don't expect much though. <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I tried the warez version to see what it was like... in two words..."Utter crap" Limited selection of cars...minimal game types...no in-car view, not even a rear view mirror...need I go on? IMHO, Don't waste your money. "Kasey Chang (use EXCITE.COM instead!)" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Wcz07.101$[email hidden]...
