V8 Supercars

[two40]

It's nearly here and I can't wait now that I'm getting a ps2 tomorrow.

the guy that sold me the ps2 has played it and says it's awsome. even thinks it's better than gt3.

i hate how there is no damage in gt3 and the level of damage detail in v8 supercars is phreaky to say the least.

the game follows a storyline as well likened to 'days of thunder' where your dad (i think) dies and you race for teams and other teams try to buy you out etc etc

it's not limited to just v8's too which is great

read this for more

this is going to be a good one. release date August 23rd

While I am totally against all that Ford and Holden stand for I can say that I am looking forwrd to this game (got my copy ordered). That said.....Mark Skaife is the ****.

I think he's talking about the Codemasters version for PS2 pinky. I played the EA Sports V8 Challenge at this simulator style place up here. It was pretty fun on those things.

[skyzerr33]

[Birty]

I've seen the skins, and they look ****.

[KamikazeR33]

[skyzerr33]

I'd say whoever sold you a PS2 is telling lies about playing it (unless he's played the demo).

The Aus release has been delayed, even though the stores have it behind the counters, and the release was supposed to be today, they can't sell it until the 29th Aug.

It is being released in the Uk a couple of days before Aus.

Or save yourself the time and money and get a copy from these guys.

There was a review in ps2 mag, they said it was a really good racer. Should be at least worth a rent.

WOOHOO! i picked up my copy today and man it rocks!!!

this game is gonna be in my PS2 for a while

HOW???????????????/

i thought next weekend???

[[ABU53]]

nah man, i ordered mine a month ago and Electronics Boutique rang me this morning (Sunday trading) and said its ready, so, in i went and now i am happy!

[XrSiSt]

So anyone else tried it before i swipe my credit card?

Just a notice to all contemplating buying this game.

Do not...repeat...do not compare it to the asthetics of GT3.

I did and was somewhat dissapointed. The actual game itself is a cracker though, i mean, its not just a racer...it is story orientated which makes for a fresh change.

And man, I kick ass at this game (talk myself up huh)

[kjb_r33]

WOO HOO, i ordered mine about 3 months ago, online, got an email yesterday saying it has been dispatched, My r33 will be flying home tonite hahaha

:burnout: :burnout:

[kjb_r33]
