e Hi! The Colin MCRae Rally as a game is FAR FROM a dissappointment, its the greatest non-concrete-track car simulation forever. But I really cant understand why the only scandinavian nationality in the game is Swedish. CODEMASTERS dont know much about rally as a sport? Tommi Makinen, Juha Kankkunen, Ari Vatanen, Markku Alen, Henri Toivonen, Timo Salonen... Most of the World Champions in last 10-15 years being Finnish, you still cant be Finnish in the game. Like in a football(soccer) game you would not be able to choose the British/English nationality but there would be possibility to choose Icelandish:-) The (internet accesses / capita) rate is biggest in Finland and the 'computerization' rate is quite good here too (2nd,3rd? in the World after USA). Maybe 10 % of all rally simulation users live here? At least there are three times as many rally players here in Finland than in Sweden. So, Fix it! Finn it! Win it!

The only bad thing about that game is that its completely shite, despite our hero Tommi M?kinen endorsing it. -- Anssi Lehtinen

Never, EVER, believe a professional racer... ;^ J.Herbert, Newman/Haas, Rahal, the "sims" behind the names were all, well, not fullfilling... l8er ronny -- Toys'R'Us '99: "So, would you like a hand gun with that action figure, kiddo?" |\ _,,,---,,_ I want to die like my Grandfather, ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ in his sleep. |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' Not like the people in his car, '---''(_/--' `-'\_) screaming their heads off!
