Finally got the first taste, not problem free but enough to get some kind of picture. Just the picture, i got only ambient sounds so it was pretty tough to drive car. Also it crashes in 5 minutes when i exit back to main menu, same call line stack error on line(0)... Not a biggie, it's just a teaser, at least i get to take the car on a spin.
Well, the game shouldn't work anyway, i got single core xp 3500 processor and it works really happily. I got some lag, understandably, could be the ancient gpu too, 7900gto..
I kind of like the new menu interface, the drive button is present everywhere, no need to go back to main menu page, good idea. I won't be criticizing the FFB yet with all the aids and whatnot, initial feel was a bit numb but after few laps, it's logical.
