When a game released exclusively digitally disappears from distribution, it becomes impossible to play it legally. Actually, quite a few gems have disappeared in this manner, with the legendary P.T. being just the beginning of the story.
Nice message and physical should always be supported, but I am not supporting this article being set across like nine pages.
Konami Digital just send word out that a new car pack will be available for downloading via the PSN store tomorrow.
GTI Club Plus is good if you're a nostalgic fan of the original arcade machine. Newcomers, on the other hand, will find that the maps, modes, and features lack the depth of modern racing games. However, if you want to try a racer that does things a bit differently, GTI Club Plus is definitely worth taking a look at.
Interesting little review. I tried the demo and had trouble winning the Easy race. Took me about 4 or 5 tries. Kind of addicting, but the game is certainly strange. I like the way the Hard course sounds, all labyrinthine and what not, with tons of paths to take. Just play the game for hours on end and figure out the optimum path to finally beat it.
