Sorry if this was posted already yesterday, my newsreader doesn't show it and my time and date on my computer was screwed up. here we go: My Opinion after two days with the full version: Superb. This is the definite Rally Game for PC and one of the best Racing Games ever. I think I haven't had that much fun with a driving game since the days of Stunt Car Racer. The goods: + great dynamic In-Car view + excellent EAX environmental sounds + excellent steering feel + breathtaking graphics (celeron500, v3) + high framerate + good but slightly exaggerated physics + different cars with different sounds and behaviour + very well done multiplayer races on multi-lane tracks The bads: - somewhat strange enginge sounds - clumsy interface, especially the controller configuration - haven't got split axis working right now (logitech), but it might be me (see-> interface :o) I might post some more observations this week. But if you can get your controller working right in the demo, I'd say this is a must-buy. The best game released this year so far. cheers, --- Alexander Marx mailo:[email hidden]

All I can say is.... I Agree 100% Stunt car racer := the only Amiga game worthy of the effort of dragging your TV and A500 round your mates house for serial MPlayer :-)) Regards Jason Alexander Marx <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8dfsor$7jaqq$[email hidden]...

Rally Masters! Now that's what I'm talking about!!! Wow, CMR on steroids! Great graphics, awsome 3d sound, real cars including WRC not just F2 cars, and best of all it's very DRIVEABLE! Now for those of you without jobs, Families, or just too much time on your hands, I'm sure RC2000/Mobil One Rally is a terrific, and very realistic sim (more sim than arcade) but for those of us who only have 15-30 min's every other night to jump on the PC and have FUN, I'd say Rally Masters hits the mark! And this is just from my opions of the Demo, can't wait to see the real deal! Ya know, I was really looking forward to RC2K but after playing that undriveable demo of there's I was totally turned off. Don't take me wrong, it's a great looking game visually, but the sounds, the unentigible co-driver, and the frustrating car phyisics/driveablility just turned me off. I'm sure if I had the time to spend an hour or two every night mastering RC2K I'd learn to enjoy it, but this one looks like a real winner, right out of the box! Regards, Jay J

I am willing to give the game a chance, but I thought the demo sucked. -- Kevin Anderson [email hidden] --------------------------------------------------- DK-Racing #15 K_Anderson ------------------------------------------------- http://www.awtech.net/ "Jay J" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:zLOK4.10892$[email hidden]... > Rally Masters! > > Now that's what I'm talking about!!! > > Wow, CMR on steroids!
