This will make it easier to pass on it.


Nintendo doesn't get many racing sims though.  I'm getting it to show there is demand for that sort of game on a Nintendo platform.

Do you not like driving games..?

I'm pretty bad at them but quite like to mess around with them all the same, and it's the first (and probably going to be the only!) third party game that's had as much care and effort put into it as the other platforms. Everyone should buy it for that reason alone just to encourage other developers to do the same lol

Not the best lineup though.

You can say that again.

I like such games, but I am not going to pay more than 30 Euro for a digital game. This one can be expected to be more expensive.

With the constant promotions, I'm pretty sure you will be able to get this one at a cheaper price somewhere down the line. Even Nintendo games get eShop price reductions.

SAN JOSE, Calif., (July 2, 2014) – Leading video game publisher and developer BANDAI NAMCO Games Inc. today announced an agreement with UK developer Slightly Mad Studios to distribute the highly anticipated Project CARS worldwide starting November 2014 on Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Wii U™ system and PC.  BANDAI NAMCO Games America Inc. will be distributing the title across the Americas.

So Project CARS is digital, but Mario Maker is a retail release? What a weird world we live in...

Also, I bet it's like 11GB or some insane amount.
