If you ever played Papyrus’ seminal Grand Prix Legends then you’ve read his name. Rich began working as a tester on NASCAR Racing (1994) and was with Papyrus at the end. In this interview, published in 2022, we discuss his time at the legendary studio and the design of Grand Prix Legends, including initial feelings of hurt at not being asked to join iRacing.

Asobo, known today as the Microsoft Flight Simulator developer, created groundbreaking technology for large scale maps that was intended to be used in a high quality rally raid title. It was never released and ended up as FUEL, a post-apocalyptic open-world racing game. What happened?

The recently announced third title in this franchise has now been opened for wishlisting on Steam, and the Steam profile includes some screenshots for the first time. Notable, from what I can see, is the inclusion of wet weather:

The textures look sharp and I don’t see a lot of the terrible postfx issues that seem to plague a lot of modern titles. The one thing I will say I dislike is that I feel the colors are a little over saturated, but I can live with that.

You can check out the reveal trailer either on Steam or on my news post about it.

Here is the game description from Steam:

The Isle of Man Tourist Trophy is the most epic, most dangerous and most spectacular race in the world. It is a course of over 60km on the roads of the Isle of Man, includes 264 bends, and requires high-powered bikes specially prepared for the race. The riders who compete in it train their whole lives for the chance to win the ultimate accolade: being crowned champion of the Isle of Man TT.

The game includes all the official content of the latest TT (riders, bikes, teams, course) for a unique and true-to-life experience. You are plunged into the middle of the TT as if you were there. And you will feel all the passion and tension this race generates.

Whether you compete in the Supersport or Superbike class, you can ride on 32 different tracks and over 200km of roads. Simply choose one of the 38 official riders available: 21 in Superbike and 17 in Supersport.

The game features easy-to-learn and intuitive riding with ultra-realistic and cutting-edge physics for the ultimate immersion and simulation quality. Many professional riders even use the game to train and learn the track.

The major new feature in this edition is an open world that can be used to freely ride around the roads of the Isle of Man to find different game modes and a wide range of challenges:
– Quick Race
– Career Mode
– Online Multiplayer
– Weekly and monthly races
