I was actually ready to pay $20, which is what the sticker indicated, but at checkout it came to $9.99! I don't know if this is the price nationally, but at my local store (Tenlytown, DC) that's the deal. So if you're waiting for a cheap price, get it now! I'm still obsessed with GPL and happily driving my Cooper in weekly league races, at some point I do want to try the TA mod, so I gave in and bought NR2003. But first I need 7 more days in my week.

I got it at Target for $10 on Saturday.
$9.99 has been the price for a while, I got one too there. They must have lazy workers that didn't reprice the boxes. I find that common at Best Buy.

I know it's the red-headed step-child of racing sims but EA's NASCAR Thunder 2004 was on sale at Best Buy for $14.99 last week. Picked it up and am enjoying it. "Demented One" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:<KiU0c.99594$4o.118477@attbi_s52>...

From what SBDT AB have talked about in press releases, they either are starting from NT or an even newer iteration of that engine. They talk of dedicated servers and 30 cars online, so that squashes F1c. And they are replicating a multi class series so it can't be anything based on the Papyrus model. Just my speculation, no rumours or insider info...cuz...as we all know, I ain't know(:>) insider. dave henrie

It's worth picking up now that all the EA 2004 games are cheap, if only to marvel at how shitty it is. The engine is fine I guess (if you like a physics engine that's tied down to the speed of the graphics renderer) but the way the engine is used in NT2004 is horrid. Come to think of it, you're probably better off just waiting for GTR. Jason

Here we go again... <eg> I have to agree...tried out the NT2004 demo and there is absolutely no comparison to Papy in the physics engine. It still has a verrry "arcady" feel to the game. The car doesn't sway or feel like it has weight. Graphics are excellent as to be expected out of something newer, but lets face it...the "feel" is what we're all looking for and Papy has it nailed down.
