Spirit of Speed screenshots

Here are some shots at matrox.com about Microprose' Spirt of Speed. Environmental bump mapping looks pretty darn trick. [link lost in import: /***/bump/spirit_speed.htm]

Beautiful! How does it drive? when is it out? LOL cya Markus

LOL indeed. I'm getting goose bumps from those screenshots, though maybe one should experience it in "live" and full screen to be able to appreciate it. But look at those speeds. 2-12 mph! I guess the guys at Matrox figured that anything above that would kill the fun since you wouldn't be able to see their excellent bumps. --- Antti Markus Peteri 15 miles. your dim light shines from so far away - Soul Asylum, Promises Broken

With such a reply, sounds to me they are trying to pass an Arcade game as a sim! just my opinion, Mike -- ========================================= Mike Barlow of Barlow Racing? ========================================= Racing online with the help of......

I believe it was just on the road surface. Anyways, static shots dont do much for me either..but then again I really have no interest at all in the game. :)
