Has anybody else tried the "arcade" mode in the Warm Up! demo? In
F1WGP, the "arcade" mode was basically a more relaxed sim mode -- kind
of like the "sim" mode in Warm Up!, come to think of it. Anyway,
the "arcade" mode in Warm Up! is a REAL arcade mode -- it kind of
reminds me of the kind of driving action you find in something like
the "Daytona USA" in the arcades, but MUCH better.
It's hard to explain, but it's psychotically fast, and yet the driving
model "feels" pretty nailed-down and accurate (aside from the insanely
forgiving grip levels, of course). It's like your favorite title in
the "Need For Speed" series on adrenaline AND amphetamines (any NFS
title besides NFSPU, that is, which is really a "lite" sim and not an
arcade racer per se). If it doesn't make you hang on like an unwilling
passenger in an impromptu James Bond chase scene, yet leave you
grinning like a racing fool who's just discovered the joys of
powersliding in GPL, then you'd better have someone check your pulse,
because you might be dead. <G>

Before you buy.
JB,
Not sure if you've "discovered" the really great feature of arcade
mode. Press the Key/Button that you assigned to Brake-Bias and
see what happens ...
Well, OK, I'll tell you, it's a Turbo Feature, gives the already
somewhat swift car even more oomph! Also, if you are behind
a car that switches Turbo on, you get 2 jets of flames coming
from the back. Looks neat.
Well, ya gotta have a break from GPL sometime :-)
