Re: GP3 Review at GameSpot UK -- Multiplayer comments

Oh, after reading it, it became pretty obvious it was not exactly an unbiased review. There were just too many things in it that were complete bullshit, based on several reports on this board. C'mon Papy, PLEASE make a modern F1 sim... heck CART would be even better IMO.

"Of course there's now the multiplayer mode, which we talked about yesterday. It works brilliantly, with no loss of frame rate over the three networked PCs we ran together. Hasbro insists that you have one CD per machine, but we discovered that as long as you start the game with the CD in, you can eject it and take it to another PC, so the office doesn't have to buy ten copies. " This is from the review at http://www.gamespot.co.uk/pc.gamespot/driving/gp3_uk/review.html I personally havent tried multiplayer, and probably wont since you cant play over the internet, but it seems like these comments are about the polar opposite of what people here have experienced with the multiplayer. Were these guys given a different copy of the game, or are they just shills for Hasbro, or are the people in this newsgroup doing something wrong? They gushed over the entire game and gave it a 9.7 out of 10. Brian

But the difficulty in reviewing Grand Prix 3 is in determining exactly what it is the public wants. On the one hand, Grand Prix 3 is a perfect, 10 out of 10 game, because it is just Grand Prix 2 updated and overhauled to reflect four years of improved computer technology, and three years of improved car technology. Lol This guy is on some very good WEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Brian Short wrote:
