>Just talked to Microprose and they said the new RELEASE date(for what >its worth) is May 21. Take it for what it is Just talked to my local Super Software store, and they said basically the same thing - it will be in their store on May 25 (at least for now).

No try sometime in the 23TH CENTURY, and you won't be able to play the game just look at the mannual, because cd-rom will not be support be any computer. and Microprose won't change format's What The hell is Microprose waiting? to Hell to freeze over.

A thought. Could GP2 be being delayed to code for the new breed of 3D graphics accelerators coming on to the market? Yes they could release a patch to do this in the future but it strikes me as being so fundamental that they might write it into the initial release? Perhaps MicroProse have been alarmed by the PS GP game... -- MarkN

Christmas -> March 29 -> April 25 -> May 21 -> May25 ?! My prediction is June 27 :) Man, that's rediculous!!! Mark Yeung

Well I am really sad to spoil your good wishes :( but unfortunately, as far as I know, Microprose said there would be NO future 3D board version of the game. I just hope Geoff keeps his style, and that he will write the game in a way that it could be patched for 3D. That would really destroy all the competition. I would go for 3d Edge only for that one. But as it seems, we can only hope. Geoff still hasn't made a disapointing computer game, and I don't think he will now.

>What The hell is Microprose waiting? >to Hell to freeze over. Hell may indeed have frozen over ... GP2 has been announced as being available, here in New Zealand, sometime in May (1996 that is) ... if it is being advertised at the edge of the World, then it bodes well for availability elsewhere. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Tony Sanders Wellington New Zealand ... absolutely, positively nuclear-free, and absolutely OS/2 Warped. ---------------------------------------------------------------

Christmas! I bought a pentium in October because I thought it might be released on the 11th (or something). At this rate, I'll be celebrating its one year aniversary before MPS ship any product.
