I have F12002, RT and NR2002 and can say that NR2002 and F12002 are both better out of the box than RT. GP4 (from what I read in the RAS forum)is a bug filled patch-fest and Rallisport Challenge I haven't really heard a whole lot about. Don't get me wrong, RT is a good game, but I spent too much time trying to get it setup, rather than driving. I didn't get into what the exact quals for "Driving Game of the Year" were, but I personally feel that the 2 that I own were FAR superior to RT. Just my .02 worth, fwiw. Happy Holidays. Lawman

every year, it pretty much goes the same way. Papyrus is expected to deliver high quality games and they do, but they never get the awards because they arent as a company developing success that no one expects. It's just like other sports. The teams that win the title, their coaches hardly ever get coach of the year ... "JTBurn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I think it's cool that they gave it to a rally game. Especially a game, that went for a highly realistic approach. Maybe a few other companies will wake up and start realizing that a good rally game will get high respect if it's done well, as apposed to rallisport challenge :) BTW, I just won the Expert Rally by a mile in the Ford Escort! What a nasty car... The power of the stratos, but significantly bigger and heavier. Mike http://mikebeauchamp.com "ymenard" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Rk_N9.2255$[email hidden]...

Because those two games are just updates of the same old shit they released the year before. Ok, not shit :)...and they are significantly better than their originals, but BugBear created a sim no other company has tried before, and did it well, so I think they deserve it.
