indy car 3 or GP3 ?

I have heard rumors of both Papyrus and Geoff Crammond, Microprose, either working on or proposing to develop Indycar racing 3 and Formula One Grandprix 3 respectively. I was wondering if anyone out their would be be able to clarify this and if so would they be able to leave web addresses so I can check out images or the games in their developement stages. If these rumors are true I believe both will be impressive looking back at their last creations GP2 and GPL. Thanks Aaron Rambaud

Both are still on the "rumor" stage. We all know that Grand Prix 3 is in development, I think that Microprose officially said it now, no ? There's no images for both titles btw.. no screenshots, just some basic info. CART Racing is probably only in early stages of development (pre-production). I figure that they normally think about what they will do after Nascar3 before it's out, so it must be soon. I guess you won't seem them until at least the year 2000 and even more... As for GP3, the best place to go is to check out some Gp2 website, they might have some info there, like http://www.grandprix3.com/ -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard/Nas-Frank> -- NROS Nascar sanctioned Guide http://www.nros.com/ -- SimRacing Online http://www.simracing.com/ -- Official mentally retarded guy of r.a.s. -- May the Downforce be with you... "People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world."

One of the rumors about gp3 is that its going to be very hush hush until the last minute of development. If you remember gp2 was reviewed in a beta form and most fans and magazines went absolutely crazy as they waited a good 5 months before the game actually was finished. Geoff Crammond "really" doesnt want to finish under that pressure again. ICR3 will probably be after Nas3 just as all before it. Regards Ilmore

I wouldn't be suprised to see ICR3 (CART2?) delayed 'cause of the 'talks' between the IRL and CART....supposedly IRL may become the Indy Lights series and CART will get the 500 back.... -- Kirk Lane ICQ: 28171652 >> I have heard rumors of both Papyrus and Geoff Crammond, Microprose, either >> working on or proposing to develop Indycar >> racing 3 and Formula One Grandprix 3 respectively.

Sarcastic comment #1: IRL? Are they still in business? Huh......... Sarcastic comment #2: Hmmm... Tony George's Prozac must finally be kicking in. Seriously: Though I would love to see Al Jr. come back and get #3, 4, and maybe even 5 :o) I think CART has done a magnificant job of showing that they don't need Tony, his attitude, or his drivers crowing that "now that the big boys are gone, we finally have a chance". Papy -- do CART, do it right, and leave IRL to the swelled heads in Redmond. Spec racing and M(ediocre)S(oftware) - they were made for each other. Bob
