Has anyone heard of this game, apparently by Accolade. I remember the film (the first one that is) but from what I've seen of this game it has nothing to do with it. Andi.

I was 12 when it came out and I went to a matinee at my local theatre. I was a big kid, so I got in, even though it was rated "R" (17 and up). I sat way down front and proceeded to enjoy the movie despite all the rambunctious and noisy kids behind me. Partway through, I realized it was pretty quiet in the theatre. I turned around and saw there was nobody else there! I got a private showing. It was also the first place I ever saw a woman completely ***. There is that scene where a hippie chick is riding around the desert on a motorcycle. That was pretty heady stuff for a 12 year old. I also tried my best to get a Challenger like the one in the movie, but all I could do was a 1970 with a 340 and a 4 speed and it was yellow and black, not white. Great Flick. I'm waiting for it to come out on DVD.

Vanishing point is the UK name for N3! I dare anyone to find a copy before the holidays are over. MS
