New version of GP2

Does anyone know if a new version of GP2 is on the horizon? and is so, what graphics card are they going to be using to develop the sim. I am in the market to purchase a 3d graphics card. I am a GP2 fan. I recently purchased "formula 1" by "psygnosis". I need a 3d graphics card to play this, however. From what I have heard, the game is terrible. In other words, the best F1 sim is still GP2. I do not want to purchased a card that will not work with the future version of GP2. Micropose is probably developing a new version that takes advantage of the new 3d technology... Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Gostal

I wouldn't get your hope's up. Microprose doesn't own any of the code to Grand Prix 2. Geoff Crammond took everyone's money from Gp2 and split! -- "To all you villans out there I say, knock off all that evil!" -The Tick The Rusty Wallace Miller Lite stock car, awsome when opened up!

I don't see how you can be so sure... What's the big fascination everyone here has with Crammond suddenly disappearing with our money? Pure speculation is all that it is... -- Dave Bowers

Various postings to this newsgroup within the last two months have stated that European (British?) computer-*** magazines are reporting that there is a new version of GP2 in the works. As I recall, one of these postings mentioned an interview with someone involved in development of the new software. Promising, hopeful news for us GP2 fans, but I'd advise adopting a "wait and see" attitude. Jack

From what i hear, gp2 will be like it is forever. Rumors say that gp3 will have 3d support for nealy all 3d cards. There is also a new rendition chipset coming out.
