Why do these releases (previews) have to be accompanied by "exciting"
music??!
Far better to simply incorporate the real-life sounds, IMO.

How *exactly* does it look arcade ? Just curious.

the hands on the wheel, look jerky, maybe they were using the keypad or
something.

Hands on the wheel looked fine to me... like someone with a bad setup doing
too much steering. Honestly, other than the 38 car going airborne from what
looked like minimal contact, I didn't see anything indicating it'll be worse
than, the same as, or better than NR2003.

Exactly.

Pretty poor basis for labeling a game arcade, as many things could cause
that. Didn't see that myself anyway.

Btw, the Papy games can be steered via keypad keys too. Must be arcade I
guess <g>

Looks like they are cloning everything Papyrus has done. Really it's all
there, from the GUI to the replays and all. You know, anybody could do the
same movie with NR2003 and tight editing, bing bang whoosh sounds and rock
music. The way the car goes down the apron is laughable at Bristol. Take
this the guy who was whining about N3's apron. N3 was HALF A DECADE ago.

Btw if you check the static shots, the textures are very low-res. Shame
again.

Oh and that crash in the end... yikes that was ugly.
