You are playing a game, a racing game. Like Project Gotham racing and you are first the whole race, then comes the last lap and one of the other cars spins you and all of the over cars over take you and you become last.
ARRGH, i wish game designers wouldnt let the cars do that, it's so annoying.
I just spent 7 minuets doing this huge race, i was sure i was going to win because i only needed to come 3rd and i was 1st, till the git behinde me span me and all the other cars over take me.

*takes deep breaths*

Stupid games, ruin you vision anyways.

Solution: Drop back on the penultimate lap and spin out the one that spins you out on the last lap. Then get back into first place and laugh across the finish line.

Burnout 2's AI opponents do this, too. You boost like hell and race perfectly. Then you crash once and all three opponents zip past you faster than you shout, "AH BOOGER! ALL THREE OPPONENTS JUST ZIPPED PAST ME FASTER THAN I COULD SHOUT..." etc.

I prefer it the way it is. In gran turismo the cars all drive in a straight line, drive at the same speed, don't move if you bump into them, it's crap. the cars on project gotham act far more realistically, even though it can work to your disadvantage as you say.

was playing it yesterday, haven't got very far yet, my best car is the corvette, and I'm on the season after the professional one.

tis a good game, is even better now I've put my own music on it.

Whats the point in making a game where you can win all the time? That would just be boring.
Oh and games actually improve hand-eye conordination.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
