Haha, you old guys do know about "Ctrl and +". It zooms in on the page so you can read without squinting!

Yep, you caught the deliberate mistake, I meant 4.10.1...I thought I'd fixed that. (now you are making me paranoid, wonder what other scroops I failed to catch.)

Lol @ the "wall of text" comments. Gotta love system 7's toolbar zoom feature......I get paid by the word!..

Yeah, come talk about it over a cold bottle of Krug on my luxury yacht in Fort Myers marina. Actually, I build walls of text for free....More fool me.

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words.

What a great review. I think you were fair yet accurate. After a modest amount of game time, I feel that you hit the nail right on the head.

I stopped reading at "...fuel-trucks and bowsers whizzing around...". Makes it sound like there's an SP game worthy of the name, all full of life and goodies and immersion.

There isn't. The game, when it doesn't crash or lock-up, is utterly sterile. The SP campaign isn't a campaign, it's a bunch of very shoddy single missions strung together. And strung together badly.

Maybe your review/preview goes on to mention that but, like I say, I stopped reading it when it began to give a very false impression.

" I have waxed lyrical about the beauty of the game, and it's potential"

its potential, not it's potential... grammar guys, grammar...

Fair article btw, uh, and where do I send my optician bill?
