I need help. I know the following GP3 .. grand prix 3 GPL .. grand prix legends F12000 .... Formula One 2000 But what and from which company are these from. Also, what are their strengths/downsides: F1RC???? MGPRS2 F1CS2000 THANKS, -- Christopher Brown
F1RC = Formula One Race Championship (aka RS3... will make sense in next 2 lines) - Ubisoft's Latest F1 offering MGPRS2 = Monaco Grand Prix Race Simulation 2 (aka RS2) - Ubisoft's previous offering to F1RC F1RS = Formula One Race Simulation (aka RS1) - Ubisoft's first F1 offering. F1CS = Deeply abbreviated -> Formula One 2000 Championship Season (the second [some might call a pay-for patch attempt in here] offering from EA) WSC = World Sports Cars -> Coming out by the West Brothers (Empire Interactive)... probably THE most anticipated/hoped-for game on this board.... might wanna watch out for this one that 'might' take the Sim Crown from GPL. MBTR - Mercedes Benz Truck Racing (A nice little offering... pardon me for forgetting the developers/publishers) <add more here... it's late... but those are the 'topic acronyms of most use'> Cheers, Schumi "Christopher Brown" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

...and of course they're not acronyms, they're abbreviations. I defy anyone to pronounce MGPRS2 as a word :-) Tony Whitley "A pedant is someone who hangs on to every word."
