Hey, All.
I've been into racing games on and off for about 10 years starting with Nascar 3 and 4, GPL, rFactor and one or two others.
I recently got Race Pro for my 360 and it made me miss the driving games on the PC.
Unfortunately, rFactor is on an old dead PC and so is my authorization code. I sent an email to customer support asking if they would have a record of my purchase somehow of if they could resend the email I got when I bought it 3 years ago.... no reply.
So I am thinking of buying GTR-Evolution.
It looks like a cool game, but I have some concerns with it. Having read some reviews at Amazon (not the best source I know) I noticed it had Steam as well as some other copyright software it puts on your machine.
I just want to play the game casually offline and more than likely never venture online so I am not sure why I should need Steam. Then again, who knows, I may venture online and look for newb rooms with other casual racers....I dunno.
More or less I am concerned this game will add stuff to my PC that I don't want on it.
How have the download experiences been for you all? Have other games had problems after downloading this? Will Steam always run or just when I am using this game?
For the most part my PC is just for playing MMOs (Age of Conan) I don't want to screw up my rig just to play a racing game a few hours tops per week,
Sorry for the long post, just concerned with all the extra software I need just to turn a few laps in a car.
