This game (along with Madden 2001) makes the Playstation 2 worth buying. It was created by Rainbow Studios, the developers of Motocross Madness 1 and 2, and it is one of the most fun racers I have ever played. While it is not a hardcore sim, it is about midway between a full sim and an arcade physics model. Gravity is a bit light, and you can take turns a bit better than you could in real life, but the balance between arcade and sim is nearly perfect. The graphics are awesome even on a TV, and the framerate is top notch. It is definately worth taking a look at.

I've had a PS2 for a few weeks, and this is the first game I'm going to buy (on Thursday, payday ;-). BTW, found an interesting thing abuot the PS2. It's compatible with my PC USB mouse. Used it to play Silent Scope (true plug n' play, didn't even have to reboot the console - amazing!). And apparently, the GT3 demo is compatible with Logitech FF wheel. If the final GT3 game works with the PC wheels, it could be the best racing game ever! Joe McGinn _____________________ Radical Entertainment

I cannot wait for GT3, the game screens and videos look even better than the best PC racing games I have ever seen, albeit they are lower resolution on a TV, but resolution sure does not tell the whole picture when it comes to graphics. I think that I will be getting a new Logitech FF wheel for both PC and PS2 soon.
