GTR2 Demo Download Mirrors

The GTR2 demo has been released! It checks in at 312MB which is a bit smaller than expected. In case you haven't heard by now, 10tacle has dropped Starforce copy protection in favor of Securerom so apparently this demo doesn't contain Starforce as the previous GTR demos did. I'm sure many people will be disappointed but that's no reason not to give it a try! Actually, big kudos to 10tacle for listening to the community. There's links to a couple of download mirrors below. I'll post more links as I find them. I'll try to get some screenshots up as well.

  1. [...] As promised, here’s a batch of screenshots from the recently released GTR2 demo (download mirrors). They’re nothing special as far as screenshots go and they don’t look nearly as good as the 3D Panoramic shots I posted about a few weeks ago. The interface has been changed a bit but for the most part it’s similar to the interface in the original GTR. If you haven’t noticed, Race Sim Central has opened up a GTR2 forum for discussion about the demo and upcoming retail release. If you’re having technical problems or looking for setups etc, the RSC forum would be a good place to start. It took spending a couple of hours with the demo and trying some different setups before I was sold on the game. The default setup seems way too grippy and it gave me the impression that either some driver aids were still turned on or SimBin was taking more of an arcade racer approach with the game. After finding a setup and tweaking it a bit here and there, all is well. The cars are easy enough to drive but difficult to drive fast, which is the way it should be. It’s not perfect but what racing sim is? Let’s hope the netcode is up to snuff. If it’s even reasonbly close to that of rFactor, I’ll be a happy customer. [...]

  2. [...] In what’s sure to be a media onslaught leading up to the retail release of the game, 10tacle and SimBin have released two GTR2 video trailers. The Zhuhai trailer is a WMV version of the flash video that made an appearance on the GTR2 website not long ago. The Hockenheim trailer is new, or least I haven’t seen it before. Both trailers are of very good quality, especially the Zhuhai video which is 1280×720. After playing the demo and messing around with the various hacks available, I’m really looking forward to picking this one up. [...]
