Very true,im still in shock at this rubbish. no tire temps no tire pressure no camber adjustments basically same driving model as gp2 the car has no feel or inertia shit graphics I can count the pixels on the barriers 3 years out of date this game is GPL makes this look like an 8 bit amiga game.

Crammond spent three (four?) years on this?! What the hell was he doing with all that time? It's the same game! He added wet weather, higher resolution graphics and 3D support, and a moving steering wheel (which can't be turned off, dammit!). Some may doubt me, but I'm quite serious. I can't believe it took him that long just to essentially patch up GP2 and re-release it as GP3. I wasn't expecting much in the first place since I'd heard long ago that it was just a patched GP2, but this is even worse than I could have imagined. There's still no replay! Not even that dinky 20 second thing! Ugh... Anyway I had preordered GP3 from GameStreet in the UK, but went ahead and cancelled it. Not worth the money. Maybe in the future when the price hits $10 or so a copy. My advice for you folks looking to step up from GP2 and don't know if it's worth the money is check out the warez version first. It's from CLASS so it may not necessarily be the final release version, but you know it's not far off. If, on the other hand, this is your first F1 game then it's probably worth the money. It is a good game, just not the major version upgrade everyone anticipated. -- ----------------------------------- Morgan Vincent Wooten GPLRank: +31.07 mailto:[email hidden] http://members.tripod.com/~morganv/ -----------------------------------

Perhaps G.C. had a "firm" release a good bit ago. So he and his helpers get together and concoct an ugly and "supposedly" final release. They even up the file dates to 7/13/00, to make it look fresh, then send it out on the warez-express. Maybe GC and company are ROTFLTAO. I doubt it, but....<g>.

I have an idea: team Geoff Crammond, Dave Kaemmer and Dave Noonan together. Crammond can do the graphics and gameplay, Kaemmer do the physics and car modelling and Noonan do the tracks. Oughta be good...
