OK, so maybe its a little 'conspiratorial', but hows about this as a reason for omitting proper black flags, 3d pit crews, safety cars etc......Because the phys is so good there is very little reason to buy the 99 version, the 2000 version etc as the cars have changed little and there are only a few extra tracks being introduced, there is very little incentive to buy gp4, 5 6 or 7. People will want the more acurate features of the later titles that have maybe been purposefully ommited from GP3 at Hasbros request......... pez?

I think thats a perfectly logical explanation. It's not as if Geoff is going to stop after GP3, theyv'e already said that they'll take a short break and then go staright on to work on GP4. He and Hasbro are well aware that they can keep churning out the games and people will keep buying 'em, So why bother putting in too many features now? pez wrote in message <8ajf74$4mo$[email hidden]>... >OK, so maybe its a little 'conspiratorial', but hows about this as a reason >for omitting proper black flags, 3d pit crews, safety cars etc......Because >the phys is so good there is very little reason to buy the 99 version, the >2000 version etc as the cars have changed little and there are only a few >extra tracks being introduced, there is very little incentive to buy gp4, 5 >6 or 7.
