Like to pick it up!!! Please tell me if it is released !! Greetz Buzz
I received the following PR today: "With the release on March 23 of F1 Racing Championship on PC-CDROM, Video System and Ubi Soft Entertainment are delighted to announce that the unified response from the gaming press across Europe has been so glowing in its praise, that without doubt F1 Racing Championship is laps ahead of the competition, and destined to be the benchmark title in Formula One racing simulations." So this should mean the game will be in stores tomorrow and not today. -- Kenneth Verburg Editor-in-chief High Gear http://www.simracingnews.com P.S. Note the quote marks, as opinions tend to differ on this one ;)

Oh well :( -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.ymenard.com/ -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimato Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...

Manipulate?? "Damn, they MADE me buy their game!" If you replace some words, it could have come from ANY game company. But, the good thing is, in this case I can really agree with that marketing blabla. IMHO, it's currently the best modern F1 sim... ;) (I still like the feel of the cars in GP3 better, but that's probably just being used to it). -- l8er ronny Your mouse has moved.

Ah cmon Ronald, why negate the aspect of marketing? > If you replace some words, it could have come from ANY game company. Some people just go too far, and that was the case. > But, the good thing is, in this case I can really agree with that > marketing blabla.

I still prefer the feeling of GP2 cars, and think that Icr2 is the perfect 80's F1 sim (no wheelspin, incredible reaction, wide slick tyres, turbo) ;) -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.ymenard.com/ -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimato Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...
