  1. I tried to buy WRC 9 used at my local Game Stop.  I couldn't find a single copy.  Any ideas why?  My idea is that rally just isn't that big here in the states.

    I've heard numerous times about WRC 8, at least from @Family sedan, but unfortunately I never tried the racing game before. I will see how it goes, maybe I can decide to test something new around racing games since I've been playing around MGP 21, and GT7 for some time now. 

    I love WRC 8 so much that now I'm considering getting WRC 9.  I know 10 is out, but I've heard that it's not a big enough step forward in quality and it may actually even be worse than 9.  I've also heard that WRC 9 has better handling and more historic rally cars than 8.  I'm all psyched up to get 9 and then I'll probably play them inter-changably.

    I haven't played the game yet. I'm not sure if it was a good decision for the developers to have the fans so close to a point where they would get hit by cars. I think the fans are not supposed to be that close to the race tracks? 

    Well in real life rally fans stand close to the racing surface.  The game is realistic in that regard.  I think that fans should stand at least ten or twenty feet back.  Its not like cars always handle perfectly.

    I read a lot even though I still play videogames, reading is just an habit I can't do away with .

    Have you read Rush in the '70's?  It's such an awesome read.  It talks about the members of Rush and their triumphs and tragedies on the way to stardom.  I really like Rush, so I think it's a great read.

    I wanna draw too!!! What kind of motivation would get you drawing cars again? 

    I honestly don't know.  If car photos magically fell off the face of the Earth that would be a tragedy and would make we want to draw cars again to preserve history.  Sometimes I feel unaccomplished and I want to draw a car, but I still don't do it.  Some times I get the urge to draw a car and I will do it.  In that case it will usually either be a sports car I came up with myself or an old GM car.  If I'm at my desk and the inspiration comes I'll draw.

  6. NBA Live '05.  Like I've said in other topics the game is hard in any mode other than easy.  In easy you can have my basketball IQ and still win regularly.  In any mode harder than that, you had better have the basketball IQ of Phil Jackson, then man who coached Jordan and later Kobe.

  7. I play games either to challenge myself or for comfort food.  WRC 8 is a challenge.  I've had it for almost four months now and my best finishes are a few 3rd place finishes in  the Rally Sweden.  GT6 is more comfort food, I've had it for years, it has a ton of Chevys and I enjoy it and am very good at it.  Twisted 2 is comfort food and a challenge all wrapped into one game.  Then there are games that are mindless fun like Taxi Cab Pinball for the PS1.

    I see, that's cool if you desire to own cars. I admire having cars too, I'm working towards securing a good job to allow me buy cars in the future. GT 6 is cool, but doesn't have PS4 version, that's one reason GT 7 is better. I am yet to play WRC 8, maybe later I can get into it. 

    I'll say this, I find GT games a lot easier to play than WRC games or British rally games.  In GT you can buy mods for your car.  Rally games are about cutting down on the amount of errors you'll make.

    I know your love for Gran Turismo sport sports is behind the reason wanting to purchase a car @Family sedan? Car isn't my problem, I stay mostly indoors comes out once in a blue moon. If I want cars, I'll move over in-game and drive much of them lol. 

    I miss owning cars.  I need to get my next job first.  The latest GT game I've played is 6, I'm into WRC 8 for now.

    That's nice. You should work on that. For me, I can't remember the last time I used my parents cars. I have been on my own for more than 10 years now. 

    I live on the American East Coast here in Virginia.  I used to have two Chevys, but not at the same time.  Jobs are scarce in Virginia, at least the doable ones are.  Either that or I'm always being held to a higher standard than others.  That's why I have no car right now.
