I just got the demo and all I can say is wow and GP2 SUCKS : )
Fake claim of having the NASCAR Racing 2 demo
A poster claimed to have played the NASCAR Racing 2 demo and said GP2 sucked. Papyrus's Adam Levesque replied that the demo had not been released yet, that its 18MB size was a problem for distribution, and asked people not to bash GP2. Users suggested splitting the file or distributing it on magazine CDs.

Automated summary.
Well, I really don't know how you got the demo. It hasn't been released
yet. Problem right now is that it is over 18MB. So, we have to figure
out how we can get that up on the net. Anyway, please, please refrain
from saying it's way better than GP2. We all get quite enough of that.
Let's wait until the game comes out and then judge it on its own merits.

Adam,
Why not just post it to Sierra's ftp site as is for people with fast
connections, and then split it up onto say 4 5meg parts for those with
slower connections. Even over a 14.4 connection you should be able to get
at least 5 megs in an hour (I get 11 or so at 28.8). Large demos like this
(10 megs+) are becoming the norm now. I don't have a problem spending
close to 2 hours downloading it.

on the net. We have all seen similar sized files posted. Come on guys you
have had all day to put it on the net. Get on with it. Or stop teasing us
with info. Don't you guys remember what happened when you told us you
would have a patch for ICR2?

another 'I got the demo' post from the same news host, with a posting time of
maybe 2 minutes before this one.
How about sending a copy of the demo to all registered owners of NASCAR
Racing in the mail?
>I just got the demo and all I can say is wow and GP2 SUCKS : )
You think Youall got problems... My server is such a mess that
netscape locks up the connection if I try to download anything over
about 1.5Mg so my only hope will be if it comes in *very* small bites
or to have someone patient enough to mail it to me as an attachment :(
And I have up to 14hrs per 7 days of access. Use about 10 minutes a
day. Figures huh, most of you don't have the connect time but do have
solid connections, I have the time and a BS connection
<sob,whine,howl>

No, that wouldn't be very expensive! While they are at it, why don't they
just send the full version out too, to all registered owners of Nascar 1.
Then we really would see the end of Papyrus.
