Here is my little list of Pros and Cons of CMR Pros: 1. Great graphics 2. Great replay 3. Engine noise 4. Great driving experience, nothing like sliding through a hairpin.. 5. Make night race darker and have lights like Network Q Rally Cons: 1. Not enough damage 2. Too easy to get lost 3. Not enough fans 4. Make a nicer***pit with a build in tach 5. Can't view replay in the middle of the race 6. Spotter is hard to understand 7. No rooster tails and dust coming off the car in certain stages 8. Put NETURAL in the damn gearbox, i am getting sick of putting the car in reverse in hairpins 9. My wheel is coming off from all the turning and correcting(j/k)
Pros : I agree Cons: 1. I have to use 2 year old Matrox drivers which***other games otherwise the menus are unsable. 2. It wont load UK stage 2. 3. It's my second CD - looks like point 2 means I have to get a third! 4. After all the wait it still wasnt a tested product. Ian
Another con it gives you a 20 degree deadzone when using a steering wheel!! On Sun, 25 Oct 1998 07:31:32 -0000, "Ian Batterham"
