Easy now, Hasbro and EA both make games on CD's that make great coasters.

Say what?
Hasbro had a great opportunity, getting their product to market sooner, with
a good physics engine. I think they really missed the boat with that one. I
was all pumped up for Heat, bought it as soon as it became available in the
stores here in my area, kept it on my hard drive until the first patch, the
gave up and deleted it.
I really had high hopes for Heat, once  I got my first look at N4, I knew
they(hasbro)  had missed the boat. But hey, if there ever is a Heat2, I will
give it a try also.

SBK2001, F12000, F12000CS, RC2000, yeah, they sure don't know how to make
sims at EA.

What the hell has Papyrus put out since GPL (2 1/2 friggen years ago)? An
update to N2 in N3, and now N4. Whoopee.

Ask Digital Illusions, not Hasbro. Hasbro's just the publisher.

I agree the best sim on the market right now is F12000CS.  EA Sports needs to
take that technology and do a Nascar sim, it would kick Sierras butt.

They need a lot more than a patch :)

Though my Cable Company can't seem to get their latency problems fixed
(Thank You Cox Cable Fairfax), and you can't run online when latencies are
exceeding a full second, N4 has the best multiplayer of anything coded so
far.

A hell of a lot more people play N3 than play NH and I would even venture to
say more than the other games you listed.

Have you ever gone online Won and seen how many people are there every night
playing N3?  Heck, how many does Raceserver have signed up themselves.. over
9000 I think and they are a 3rd party utility.

<SNIP>

You're half-right, rrevved  -- MGI did Viper Racing, but it was Image
Space Incorporated (ISI) who brought us SCGT.  

FWIW, ISI was also responsible for F1 2000 and F1 Championship Season
2000.

Also FWIW, Digital Illusions did the STCC game "(Swedish Touring Car
Championship," I believe).

I'm just a wealth of semi-useless knowledge . . . <G>
