I would like to know if when and if you leave Sierra, could you please join HASBRO?! or even Electronic Arts?!? Find a company that is willing to give you the money and recources to make a wonderful NASCAR sim!!

Yes, please join EA. Now there's a company that isn't driven by greed and will stop at nothing to create the perfect driving simulator. While your at it, s***the GPL engine and use the NFS engine. Now that thing kicks butt, you can powerslide around every corner and jump and do other cool stuff. It would be really cool if Monza had a shortcut where you could skip the parabolica and come out ahead of the pits. Maybe put some powerups right before you head under the old banked section of track. These could be for, like, a cool speed boost or maybe allow you to use a tractor beam to catch your competition. And since you'd be owned by EA, you could come out with GPL 98, GPL 99, and GPL 2000. All you have to do is rearrange the menus and add some new cars that can be unlocked or something. Now this may sound crazy, but hear me out. You can port the game to every platform around (PSX, Dreamcast, PC, Genesis). This will be easy 'cause you write for the lowest common denominator and add lense flare for the better systems. Wooohooo!

no kidding. yeah.. go Payrus.. work for Sierra, a company that doesn't know what to do. yeah.. go Papyrus, work for Sierra, a company that tells you what do with your game and not allowing you to do things the way you want to.
FYI....EA, Hasbro, Eidos, etc. are absolutely no different than Sierra anyways especially when regards to in-house development teams. Perhaps if would be better for us if they went 3rd party again, but then again its not as good of situation for Papyrus either. > no kidding. yeah.. go Payrus.. work for Sierra, a company that doesn't know

Yesterday I received my US copy of N3 <jumping up and down>, and was amazed during the install: I was free to install it anywhere I wanted! Thanks, Sierra! Could it be, that once whining and moaning on a ng had some positive result? Naaah.... l8er ronny -- "I heard if you play the NT-4.0-CD backwards, you get a satanic message." "That's nothing, if you play it forward, it installs NT-4.0"
