Infogrames Announces Le Mans 24 Hours

Hmm, is it possible to run Win95 for 24 hours? I never did that... ;^) l8er ronny -- Your mouse has moved. Windows must be restarted for the change to take effect.

I await this one with cautious optimism. Have you seen the cars for it? Tha MARCOS is a beauty. I have one of Infogrames titles for the PSX called V-rally (not bad) but it wan't developed by Euthechnyx. With SCGT on the way and Le Mans in the wings it looks like a great year!! Tom Petersen

> Well, at least 24 hours on the console is certainly not for the casual > gamer. No kidding. And to think that my neck is stiff and my ankle is twitching after driving a race in the GPL Nail That Track Series (one hour of practice followed by a race in long mode - about 1 hr 35 min total). I might need traction after this. Hopefully, they will include a "save game" feature. Dave Ewing

WIMP!!!!!! what you mean you cant drive a 24 hour race straight and then go to work <G>. Really I would be interesting for multiplay relief drivers, of course not online unless you know the person in reall life, imagine driving for 8 handing over then finding out you just gave it to some 12 year old thinking its destruction derby time.

24 HOURS, Now that's RACING!! I've raced in the Endurance race league on TEN. This races lasted just under three hours and I think I may have been in one that was over three hours long. Even after each of those races I was itching to continue for another three hours. A 24 hour race may not be possible for internet racing because you'd be sitting in one position with your head stuck starring strait at the monitor for the whole race. But, I'd be more then willing to run a 6 hour race. Then, who knows, maybe I can come up with a way to be sure I turn my head every now and then to get rid of that rigamortice. Maybe by placing a few posters of my favorite online cars to my left and maybe some posters of my favorite online racing web pages to my right and.... ;-) Seriously, I would be more then willing to run a six hour race!
