T.I.R

Well i know the x-box version is bad, but the PC one was given an 80%+ score in gamer, is it worth a look...? Yes i do have the add-on for F1-2002, and i like the sports cars. Any pointers would be cool, it looks like a love or hate game !

Well i popped down the newsagents, i found the demo on the cover of this months PCgamer, its only on the DVD one as an extra as i belive it was a feture on last months. Well unless the demo is like an early version I`m not buying it, the cars look ok, but it dosn`t run to fast even on my humble 1.4ghz with a Geforce 4600Ti, well its smooth but dosn`t give a good imprestion of speed. Also the cars never seem to slip out of control, to easy.. also steering a little vauge..? Is the full blown version like this..

I bought TIR before I finished downloading GTR2002 - as soon as I had that up and running TIR went straight back for a refund. GTR is what TIR should/could have been. Regards Rick.

Have to agree. Since GTR2002 was released TIR has seen ZERO seat time. GTR is waaaaaayyyy more fun. "Rick Catton" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:au4oqq$iu9$[email hidden]...

You can fix the vague steering, but I spent a solid week tuning the physics of the cars and never came up with anything remotely convincing. Jason

I'm not worried about it. Why would anyone worry about this? "Paulinho" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:au6pvm$lt6$[email hidden]... > Dosnt it worry anyone that this was the game the West bros where makingwhen

So do I..TIR is arcade/etc.. compared to GTR2002. It seems like gamehouses does the engines and we do the rest...:)) Doug Hook <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:chpN9.464739$NH2.32933@sccrnsc01...

I had GTR2002 for a couple of weeks and tried the demo of TIR... Played it for 10 mins and uninstalled it (TIR). I'm waiting for Pro Race Driver... - Tom N.
