WSC improves upon EVERY aspect of WSB.1 -- and it FAR exceeds WSB.5,
too, so I don't know what you're even talking about here. Plus, I
cannot believe you're bold enough to comment on ANY driving sim when
you don't even have TAR on your system -- what a piker!

Your longevity may make you more mediocre than I am, but I am
ultimately even more mediocre than that, so there! Plus, I defy you to
match my Swamp Buggy rating -- I am currently sharpening my skills on
the warez version of SB2, so I've already got a huge jump on you there!

Parody thread about a nonexistent World Sports Cars warez
A joke post parodied the GP3 warez threads by reviewing a nonexistent warez version of World Sports Cars. Eldred and others played along with mock arguments about version numbers and sims, while some admitted they did not get the joke at first.

This is total bull$#!+, Eldred -- and anyone who even tries to say that
WSC is merely an update to WSB, or that it's really only "WSB.5" is
even more full of $$#!+. Even in its current warez form, WSC is THE
most complete, most technically-accurate simulator we've ever seen --
it far surpasses GPL, and at this point, I would almost rank it right
up there with "Trans Am Racing: 1967-1972" (yes, the WSC warez version
I've played really is THAT good!).
Call me a blasphemer, but I have to totally disagree with you on this
one, Eldred.
Your GPL rank sucks, too -- I'm MUCH closer to the bottom of the list
than you are, further proving that I'm more of an expert on mediocrity
than you could ever hope to be!

Dude, it's a FACT. No amount of posturing on your part is going to change
that. I still can't believe that you prefer TAR, SBR, and SB2. I have more
mediocre games than that on my Palm Pilot! You Sir, are hopeless...

I was, of course, thinking of "one who plays cautiously" or "one who

You REALLY should give TAR another try, though -- it ROCKS compared to
GPL!

Eldred, Eldred, Eldred -- you're just still upset because you don't
want to admit that the new warez release of Test Drive 7 just can't
measure up to the original Swamp Buggy Racing, let alone SB2, and
you're trying to mask your anger with all that bravado about SBR
being "the height of mediocrity." Shame on you -- you know as well as I
do that SBR sets the benchmark for mediocrity. Just admit it so we can
end this senseless argument once and for all -- even if you ARE wrong
about the WSC warez release!
