Graphics all screwed up on mine, going to re-install, clear some harddrive space and have another try.

lol, that depends if you are talking percentages of the original cost though If so, if that was $260.99 then saying it was about £100 would be £30.67 out, so it all depends how flush you are £3.67 could buy a full game from some places

Anyway, the game. I played a demo a while back and I thought it was quite good but I didn't have a proper control setup for it so it could have been better.

Re: WTCC The game - Free on Steam this Weekend!

Its a great game, bought it for my dad for christmas... you'll need a pretty good system and graphics card to run it well (especially macau), and a steering wheel to play it properly!!!

Re: WTCC The game - Free on Steam this Weekend!

I am playing it on a PS2 controller, though may dig out my PS2 Force Feedback wheel and pedals

May be tempted to fork out for this - free trial runs out tonight, around 9pm ish.

Re: WTCC The game - Free on Steam this Weekend!

I have been playing it for a few hours and I am still not sure myself, it's good but a couple of the courses are a bit naff. I know they are based on the real life tracks but I found those ones boring.

Re: WTCC The game - Free on Steam this Weekend!

Anyone want to buy it, then lend me the disc so I can see if it works on my PC?

If I bought it from Tesco, could I take it back if it didn't work? That's the biggest gripe about steam - you can't sell the game on when you're bored with it and I doubt you can get your money back if it doesn't work.

Re: WTCC The game - Free on Steam this Weekend!

Hi guys/girls,

WTCC looks good. But the question is will it work on my computer?

Sony Vaio Desktop PC, 3.2Ghz Intel with HT
512 RAM,
Radoen 9200 Graphics card with pixel shading

If so, i'll download it, and beat you all.....i drive french now as well as Italian.

Matt
