Ubi Soft Entertainment and Jacques Villeneuve have created an association for promoting the production of their new racing simulation, on the PC and Sega Dreamcast. I'm not sure at the moment if the title will feature the driver's name, if so it will probably go in the "curse of driver endorsed racing games" ;) -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.WeRace.net -- People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.

I would hate to see the great name of Villeneuve added to its list of victims. Perhaps we should warn him. -- Don Scurlock Vancouver,B.C.

It will be titled "Monaco Endurance Marathon" and will feature Jenson Button, Pedro Diniz and Ricardo Zonta as they try to catch Villeneuve as he sprints through the streets of Monaco heading for the pits.

I think as long as they include "Xtreme" in the title they will be ok... Andrew ymenard wrote:

Yes I'm really serious, you can trust me on that. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.WeRace.net -- People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.

Well at this point if they took MSf1rp or whatever it's called and plopped the CART series onto that engine, I'd be happy. BUT...NOT as happy if we even got N3's engine tweeked over for open wheel multiplayer racing...AND...NOT NOT as happy if we got gpl/N4 ported over to the CART series. dave henrie ymenard wrote:

>"Pierre Robitaille" <[email hidden]> wrote > Are you sure it isn't Mononcle Jacques? :) If this is the case, then it will be titled : "The worlds most amazing racing crashes racing simulator" ;) Basically, to win the game you'll have to be UNlucky in all situations, in every category you race, from F1 to IndyCar to ski-doo racing. You'll get involved in heavy crashes and be told to be just a hack who had a famous brother. ;) -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.WeRace.net -- People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.
