David Hearn wrote Pretty good arcade game. That's all. Good fake marketing by Electronic Arts. "Revolution" is a great name to make head turns and download it... Makes arcade guys download it and hard-core sim guys also... Just a better Nascar 99. Oh and a bonus !

The virus was in the Staccato Audio Engine Tool. (staccato.zip) It was actually attached to the CarEngineSyntLet.exe that was within the zip file. Just checked it out today and the virus has been removed. Of course they have a nice little disclaimer right before you download it, but they don't have the balls to admit it was infected and warn previous downloaders how to get rid of it. As for Nascar Revolution, I think it is going to be a fun "game" with great graphics and sounds. I highly doubt EA will find a physics engine with a realistic feel though. My guess is it will feel more like NFS3 physics then anything else. More like the Playstation Nascar99 made for the pc with added features. I would love to be proven wrong, but I see no real evidence of a sim here. How about a new demo release EA? One where we can change atleast a few options? If you want to step up to the sim world you better be prepared. Mike Mellendorf >wait a second....I d/l, but I got no virus, is this something that's gonna pop
