Hi, I think I saw it 2 times... The commercial was short and I was caught by the tag line about "heat". So I stopped the refreshment run to see it, don't know if anyone else did... I'm at a loss for words, someone other than EA has actually paid for TV advertising for their nascar sim/game!? WOW what a darned thing to do? Sure makes me wonder if it will help or not, but it certainly cant hurt. Wonder if Sierra/Pappy is listening?

It is Hasbro, who is not that small of a company. I was shocked a while back when I saw tv ads for Rollercoaster Tycoon (also by Hasbro), as you almost NEVER seen ads for computer games (they usually are for consoles).

Ed - do you plan to release in Europe (esp. UK)

I know there are US stores that have imported GP3 for purchase over here before the official US release. Maybe if demand is high enough European stores will do the same for Nascar Heat... --David Cook In article <[email hidden]>, jan.no- [email hidden] wrote...

In article <[email hidden]>, [email hidden] says... > Ed - do you plan to release in Europe (esp. UK) Apparently not. No plans outside US. Which I find exceptionally dissapointing. ;( (I refuse to get a credit card). Cheers, Rod.
