NASCAR acceleration pack is out.

Shessh, I expected this newsgroup to be filled with messages in regards to the release of the NASCAR expansion pack that was released yesterday & I didn't see one message <g>.

Thats because alot of us refuse to buy it. I will wait til the CTS Addon is available by itself Rodney Arndt <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Oj_G4.29$[email hidden]...

Of course, then there are those of us who have never bought a NASCAR sim, but with the Track Converter available for GPL, I suddenly have need for N3 and NL, and $50 sounds like a good deal to me.............. Rick

Correction, it is NOT out. You can order it, but it is not shipping yet. However, you can go down to BestBuy and spend $50 to buy it, tonight. Dave Henrie <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

As much as we might want to complain about Sierra, they are in business to make money, and the people who buy games like Deer Hunter outnumber the true believers about a zillion to one. -- Email: [email hidden] Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Well, I for one am going to wait for the truck pack to come out by itself. I have both the others already. I am not about to spend $50 just to get it now. Sierra's marketing tactics are absurd. They are purposely holding the pack by itself back to see how many people will spend more to get it now, for more money with extras they may already have. I get disgusted every time I go into Best Buy seeing that huge cube of really old Sierra titles including..get this..Nascar Racing! Not NR2, Not Nr1999, Nascar Racing the original! Talk about milking it. sheesh. No, I'll wait as long as needs be to get the title I am expecting. Not other stuff I don't want in some bundle. And no, don't even think of suggesting I order it from Sierra direct. N4 might hit the shelves before I get it from them that way. Got a whole pile of archived posts of people screaming of when they could buy the product off the shelves before they got N3 and N1999 from Sierra directly...
