Just a few quick personal comments... I bought and played GP2 for the first time last night (along with a T2), and it's hard to describe the intensity of the experience. Four hours and 30 minutes later, after many practice laps and a few quick races at Monza, I was exhausted, exhilirated, and above all, amazed by the game creator(s), and have gained an even greater respect for the real F1 drivers who make it look so easy. This was, without a doubt, the most realistic and immersive simulation experience I've ever had. I'm joining the throngs who say "hats off" to Geoff Crammond. It's now obvious to me why there are so many GP2 web sites and dedicated GP2 gamers! Let's keep hoping for the 3Dfx version, too.

hehe, welcome to the world of simulation racing. I didn't realize how much I was missing until I bought my T2 last year. GP2 is a great game to demonstrate the agility and the feel of the T2. I wouldn't praise Geoff Crammond too much though, GP2 promised alot more than it delivered, and nowhere have I ever seen any comments or anything from Crammond or Microprose. Oh well, at least the guys from Papy listen to us. Anyway, happy racing. :) -- Brian Fox Geocities' MotorCity Community Leader Get your own free homepage at http://www.geocities.com The Fox Den: Nascar 1 and 2, ICR2, GP2 and my Streetrod. http://www.4w.com/pages/fox AND/OR http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/1238
