    i PM'd this to boogie man a while back....

    back from the future, aungier st, have copies of GPL if anyones looking for em. A snip at 10e

    erm, theres N3, CMCr 1 n 2, TOCA 1 n 2 and a few other "legacy racing titles" as well

    not sure of the prices on the others, but id say there pretty decent

    Thanks also to Dcully for the mods. I've got great racing games right up to my eyeballs now! ;)

    Boog.

    did you use the GPL directory i gave you boogieman?

    oh, and try oto get five for speed, its savage and always a good race to be had online :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 586 ✭✭✭boogie man


    Yep, I used that directory- worked a treat :)
    I'm going nowhere near online until I can successfully get some consistant laps in - ie. stop crashing :eek: :o

    Boog.

    A good starting point is to get a nice stable set of setups (like Alison Hines) and get to know a few tracks in the Cooper (called a coventry ingame). Monza is pretty simple to get to know, as is Watkins Glen. No point starting with a twitchy setup in the Lotus at the Nurburg Ring :)

    recently got f1 2002, its gonna take a while to get used to
    for anyone else that played f1 for the playstation, you also know what a crap game that was, f1 2002 is sooo much better

    just wish i had Dcully's very expensive steering wheel, the analogue stick is a little difficult to use

    definately looks like a promising game, has more features than i expected, multiplayer, driving school and mods, just have to find enough time to give the championship a go

    if anyone wants to rid themselves of a momo steering wheel gimme a shout

    You're talking about 2002 on the PC right ?, 'cos there is no point talking about "simulations" on those silly little little PS things.

    lol.
    consoles are pure muck for racing sims.All console racers as indeed any console game are dunbed down so much its painfull.
    I makes me laugh when people call GT3 a racing sim.
    My brother loves his PS2 ,sold his xbox but after playing some real racers on my PC he will not touch a racer on console and who would blame him.
    I must confess to my love of pro evo soccer 2 on the PS2 :)

    I had the thrustmaster Ferrari FF wheel before and got the MOMO for 70 euros in PC world ,they were selling last few off quickly to make way for other products [well thats what they told me when i quizzed them bout low price]
    It was a real steal for that IMO.

    how long ago was that?
    would they still have any?

    I was Christmas eve ,would you believe.
    Someone posted here about them so i drove from Kildare to Liffey Valley and picked up the 2nd last one.
    A month before that i saw the same wheel in PC world for 270 euros.
    As Dr Dre says this one is superb btw complete with the GPL[Grand Prix Legends] shifter and clutch.
    I had the pleasure of trying this at Goodwood last summer,incredible setup.
