Yes, it was simple 3D, but it was 3D all the same. I was a fan of Stunt Driver (Spectrum Holobyte) over Stunts because the stunts were more flexible in the track editor (wants a completely banked track? No problem) and because you could also customize the gameworld physics (friction, gravity, etc.) and also you could design your own car! It also had a faster 3D engine, digitized sound through the speaker, and multiplayer support. Again, if someone can tell me why Stunts was so much more popular over Stunt Driver, please do so :-P -- http://www.MobyGames.com/ The world's most comprehensive gaming database project. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent to you because you are currently subscribed to the swcollect mailing list.
