Based on what I read in ymenards E3 article on N2k, I still will buy it. If the physics are better than the N2/N99 but not as demanding as GPL, (and I mean demanding on brain, body and machine as well) then I think that is fine for the stock car sim. Imagine doing 500 miles with the GPL dynamics and 40 cars on the track? I would need a weeks vacation after that, so would my machine. 16 bit graphics, supporting my V2 sli would be sweet. No graphic steering wheel, I have my own thanks. OH YEAH, a tach that redlines straight up like N2 had...dammit. Why did Papy change that in N99, I had to learn to read the tach again. :0 And the look left/right would be cool. Keep the sound mixer in the game, something I miss in GPL. Free online racing (like we now enjoy on VROC [thanks A.H. and friends]) is worth buying the title alone, IMHO. I just hope they work on the AI allot. Seems to me the AI got more stupid with N99. I like to start last and work my way through the field, and N99 has made that an allmost impossible challenge. Don't care about forcefeedback, I get enough from the wife. -- The 5th Doctor

Using the GPL physics engine doesn't mean, your Ford will be as hard to drive as the Ferrari! It's just simulating the cars better... l8er ronny -- How to get rid of censorship in German game releases <http://www.gamesmania.com/german/maniac/freedom/freedom.htm> |\ _,,,---,,_ I want to die like my Grandfather, ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ in his sleep. |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' Not like the people in his car, '---''(_/--' `-'\_) screaming their heads off!
