Microprose are not publishing GP3.....

HASBRO, the parent company of Microprose are using the launch of Grand Prix 3 by Geoff Crammond to launch a NEW sports brand, so expect some heavy promo near the release date.....In the mean time, wait for E3, its going to be there, as will every other racing game in the world, so lets just hope it blows the competion out of the water.

If you would have payed better attention you would have noticed Hasbro has bought Microprose some months ago, so Microprose is actually still publishing GP3. - MiXer - >HASBRO, the parent company of Microprose are using the launch of Grand Prix >3 by Geoff Crammond to launch a NEW sports brand, so expect some heavy promo >near the release date.....In the mean time, wait for E3, its going to be >there, as will every other racing game in the world, so lets just hope it >blows the competion out of the water. >Pez

Which is why he said "HASBRO, parent company of Microprose"!!!! Here's what he's saying. Hasbro is going to start a new label, and release GP3 as the first title from that label. All their sports stuff will be under that label. -- Ken's Sig 2.01 "Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony."

Hey this was my first sim & I still have it in my 1.44mg disk file draw! Funny you mentioned it; I was thinking about "World Circuit Racing" verses Gp2. No Comment!! Cheers Thom_j. aka ^Fretts.. > So "World Circuit Racing" is dead and buried, eh?

Microprose are actually going to distribute some Hasbro titles. Nowadays Company A has an idea and or licence and some good programmers so starts writing a game. Company B likes company A's project so they buy Company A and put in more resources, and perhaps a better known name, to the title. Company B has money but no distribution and marketing expertise. Company C then gets its slice and name on the box by boxing and distributing the product. Complecated isn't it?
