GTR2 Demo to be Released Friday
According to this page at Gamepsot, SimBin and 10tacle will be releasing a single player demo of their highly anticipated GTR2 racing simulator this Friday. The demo will be just over 500MB in size and feature two vehicles from the FIA GT class. Sim racers will be able to compete against up to 15 AI controlled opponents at the Barcelona Grand Prix circuit. If the timer on the Gamespot page is accurate, look for the demo to be released about noon EST this Friday. I'll post a list of download mirrors as soon as the demo is available. A multiplayer demo would have been nice but hopefully the netcode is at least as good as rFactor's. From the info at Gamespot, it also appears that the GTR2 release date has been pushed back to September 30, 2006. I think most people were expecting it to be on shelves sometime in August. For more info on GTR2, check out the interview with SimBin's Ian Bell in the latest AutoSimSport. Digital Displacement also has a ton of info on GTR2 including screenshots, videos and impressions from a beta release of the game. There's more than enough info there to hold you over 'til Friday so check it out if you havent seen it.
