Historic Rally Trophy

Yes, but unlike so many other wannabes, this one shows us a very nice in-cockpit shot in the FIRST batch of screen shots we've seen, which would seem to bode well. Still, as you said, "but so did many titles before it."

When I first read about this title (just a few days ago) I couldn't stop smiling. What a great idea! Fingers will remain crossed until we all get a chance to jump in, say, a Ford Cortina and see what it can do. On Fri, 12 Jan 2001 22:09:39 GMT, [email hidden] wrote:

This is just what I've been waiting for and will continue to for awhile by the looks of it I just hope it's as good as they say it's supposed to be. If it is I'll be real happy with this one. http://www.bugbear.fi/hrally.htm Jim D.

The screen shots at that site are amazing. They look about as good as WSC in fact. The only thing that bothers me is that there is very little information on their website -- no release date, availability information, demo, etc. We'll just have to wait and see on this one.

JoWood issued a press released a press release on Jan. 12 stating that: The title is scheduled for release in German-speaking territories, Europe and other key markets on PC and next generation consoles by the end of 2001 (does that mean US? No idea - Ed.). JoWooD plans to show the racing game at the E3 trade show in Los Angeles this May. -- Kenneth Verburg Editor-in-chief High Gear http://www.simracingnews.com
