Now I'm e***d, did possibly Micropose lose the rights to do a F1 Sim. The folks at [link lost in import] seem to have what looks like an F1 sim coming out Oct 96 which will probably be before Micro***gets GP2 done. I hope the Frogs at Visiware kick Microcraps ass by releasing the game on time and having a superior product. I think I'll play ICR2 until Visiware is ready. Jeff
> I hope the Frogs at Visiware kick Microcraps ass by releasing the game > on time and having a superior product "the Frogs"... Well, it's quite funny to read that, even if you've already heard it. But I thought it was a good old story from my grand father ! I'm sorry to tell you that, guy, but frogs are really good to eat. Best for your health and for your taste than hamburgers, I'm sure ! Well, if one day you come to France, mail me a message. I would be honored to offer you some frogs. That cook and culture considerations aside, (please excuse me for my poor english grammar) I am a bit sceptical. Why? 1 : a soft like that one requires, I think, at least one or two years to develop (remember it's a new company, which certainly starts from nothing - no textured 3D routines, which are not the easiest to make !). 2 : There's two types of games actually in the air : the 3D games like Doom, and the racing car sims. Ok. Imagine you're developing a game with extraordinary graphics, moreover a F1 sim, and you'll hide it until two months before its launch? No word in any specialized magazines (even french ones), no demo, nothing? I hardly believe it. Well, I am maybe too suspicious, but I don't believe just two seconds that the game from Visiware will be ready for september. Yet I would be really pleased! Imagine : a french game from an unknown french company beats THE Microprose company on the last meters to the finish line! Please, listen: the marseillaise ! -- ************************************************** * Have you ever tried a Steve Lol Experience ? * * * * http ://www.imaginet.fr/~stevelol * * (Netscape 2.0 needed) * **************************************************
