I know that this thread was started later then the other one, but i will stick with this one cause it has a template and i "defend" this ones. About the game, i think its a nice and fun game.

This ones defineatly better, but I'm not interested in this game. Besides the other guy was in such a hurry, he spelled the game wrong. Lock or delete the other one!!

I had it also... you must install the Directx version that comes with the game + you must restart your comp.
Than play works.
Its a nice game BUT the controls are verry bad.
The vehicle does not respond correct.

During installation I chose F: drive for installing but somehow it uses also C: drive for temporary extraction files and as a result I'm loosing free space on C: and F: at the same time. The problem is I have only 1 GB free space on C: so I get error at the end of installation that I have no free space on C: and the files coldnt be extracted correctly. What to do ? Anyone can help ? I really want to play this game. And I couldnt uninstall anything from C: to get more free space :/

damn great game Great everything, shit i fell in love and for the record i didnt have to restart or anything. FINALLY a wipeout-style game for the pc, there was the Rollcage ganes before but i never really liked those, fuckin love this, great graphics great sound great artwork on the characters and vehicles and tracks!! The controls are a bit sensitive, but read the game description here in the template, you gotta be SKILLFULL to succeed, NOT just turn and get trough whatever bend awaits at 1500km/h. FINALLY something where you only make perfect corners when your HAND is turning perfectly smooth (using a joystick).
