I almost didn't buy it because of the demo. Really?

I wasn't impressed with NFS (the version b4 Underground). It was a game
I played when I wanted to good laugh. I'm not being condescending, I feel the same way about Midnight Club 2. It's a silly game, but fun. I was mostly disappointed with the graphics in the GTR demo -- they seemed to be from technology 4 years ago. Perhaps the full version has better looks. I still haven't seen a racing sim that matches the graphics of N2003. I haven't tried Rfactor. I'll have to give it a go. Tara |

Well, GTR is a fair bit better than N2003 in the graphics department. One thing that people often forget to do is to set texture detail to 'full' instead of just 'high' - the textures look a bit crappy on 'high' but on 'full' they're the most detailed textures I've ever seen in a game. The 3D modelling in GTR is world class too. The only drawback is that the lighting isn't as advanced as something like TRD2 but it's still on a par with N2003 in that department. |

I just installed the press demo and the first thing that hit me was how good the graphics were. Sounds seemed pretty good too - maybe a bit tinny. |
