Is Le Mans 24 Hours out yet and if so is it worth buying?
>Is Le Mans 24 Hours out yet and if so is it worth buying?
There is a thread here about it from a day or two ago.

Sounds more like just another "Test-Drive"-like arcade game.

It's not fun, the steering is ridiculous the speeds
through corners is absurd. The AI steers into you on the straights to push
you off.
Don't even think off buying this.

I will wait and spend my money on Grandprix 3
instead.

It is fun with the
keyboard, but a *** with my NASCAR Pro Wheel.
it's fun for 10/20 minutes, just like Fone99. but that's it
You have to adjust the steering sensitivity, default makes driving
indeed very bad, but after adjusting it (I have sensitivity on 50%)
it's perfect. And the game is great fun.

Ok, I read the review.
Question: How is that review any more "objective" than mine?
I covered what they said the product would deliver and stated what it
really did have.
Remember, I'm not being swayed by advertisers or "endor***ts"

Your review was based on the statements from the team. These
statements 'real life physics etc.' were not correct, that is clear
after playing the game for 5 minutes, but that doesn't take away that
it's a (imho very) good arcade game.
Forget what they promised and say on their website, clean your mind,
and look at Lemans as an arcade game. First make sure you adjust the
sensitivity of the wheel, I allready read a couple of comments from
people who didn't like the game because 'the steering is ridiculous'.
It isn't ridiculous after you adjusted the settings.
I played the game for about 20-30 hours now, and still enjoy it. It
won't last as long as RC2000, and certainly not as long as GPL (GPL is
the only game which becomes better every day, even after a year now).
But which arcade game does last very long? NFS? After I completed
NFS4, I never looked back at it again. I enjoyed it while playing, but
after I openend all bonus tracks and cars, not much fun was left
anymore.
Again, everyone his own opinion, but I think you bashed Lemans a
little bit too quickly.
Still own you one for the NEWSUPD solve by the way :)
