I don't know about this one. Sure, the shot looks good, but is that in-game? And will it really have a solid framerate? It just looks like it will run slow, especially with the sign that says 3-hour photo as opposed to must faster 1-hour blast processing. Honestly, I think Boneysoft has lost direction. We see a low-poly car next to a high-res SUV, signs that the fast cars had to sacrifice looks for speed. We see a boring HUD that replace the flashy metallic look of the previous game. And who is this game geared towards? The racing is obviously Formula 1, but the in-game logo on the vehicle says Nascar. I think it is safe to say that Boneysoft is out of touch with the American dream of racing. He instead relies on pretty graphics and American icons like McDonalds and Wal-Mart in hopes of a quick cash-in before people realize they just bought a game disc that is better used as a coaster for their 64oz Mountain Dew from Marathon.

Yes, it is in game. The reason for the difference in detail is everything apart from the car is pre-rendered, with the 3D car models racing through a pre-rendered screen. Using fast-loading jpgs, the whole thing is seamless.
We see a boring HUD that replace the flashy metallic look of the previous game.
The HUD is a WIP. The game should ship with a virtual-boy like device that projects the HUD onto your eyes for crisp, modern gaming excellence.
And who is this game geared towards? The racing is obviously Formula 1, but the in-game logo on the vehicle says Nascar.
The game will incorporate 68 different licensed motorsports. For the first time, lawnmowers, NASCAR, Formula 1 and Superbikes can all race on the same track!
I think it is safe to say that Boneysoft is out of touch with the American dream of racing.
We don't live up to people's dreams, we better them. If we're out of touch it's only because you're not dreaming big enough. This game will deliver a racing experience beyond your imagination.
He instead relies on pretty graphics and American icons like McDonalds and Wal-Mart in hopes of a quick cash-in before people realize they just bought a game disc that is better used as a coaster for their 64oz Mountain Dew from Marathon.
In a recent survey, 99% of gamers said cultural icons and commercial branding make gaming a better experience. We have implemented steps to meet this requirement. Commercials will now play while the game loads, and several features will only be unlocked after completion of our unique referal system, so gamers will be rewarded for selling our game to others.

I've played my jaguar more than I ever did my n64. In fact, less than a month after buying one used from best buy, I sold it to my friend.

What games could you have possibly played for Jaguar that were so much fun?

Alien vs. Predator - best game on the Atari Jaguar, period!
All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and when they catch you, they will kill you... but first they must catch you.

See, you can't even think of any. You're just avoiding the questions. Don't you worry about Atari, let me worry about blank.
