Well, I am going to buy the game no matter how it turns out. However, I don't expect much from it. It's only Crimson Cow's 2nd game ever. It's their first cycling game. And I doubt they can reach PCM's level in just less than 12 months. But I'm looking forward to see what they have been doing. |

Yeah.
And as written, Crimson Cow says, that they can't reach Cyanide-level in like 12 months, but if things turns out as they want them, and there's enough buyers, we may see a very good game in 3-4 years.

Surprisingly good looking is all I can say. Cities look a hell of a lot better than Cyanide, interface doesn't look to bad, 1:1 scaling is perfect, stage editor, comprehensive in-built editor. I'm actually very interested, this could be a lot closer to Cyanide than I first thought.
But I'd have to play a demo before I buy it, and shelving out £60 for 2 cycling games is a bit much

The Crimson Cow game will be a little cheaper than PCM, as far as I know.

I have to say, the texture work here is better than PCM. So thats score 1-0.
1:1 scaling: 2-0
Shaders looking alright (PCM07, im looking at you) despite glowing cyclists: 2.5-0
Integrated stuff that might work: 3-0
Manager bits that sounds more like Football Manager rather than Cycling Manager. Very important: 5-0
Something about weaker PC's: 5.5-0
Might actually be stable: 6.5-0
Not PCM: 6.5-6.5
Conclusion: Im torn, could i be forced to invest in both?

Hmm, it looks pretty good to me, i like the interface. But the riders are a bit strange mainly the wheels. It is their first cycling game so, lets see what happens. |

I think graphics are both up and down. The sorroundings seems better than Cyanides, I think, but rider animations looks like the old CyM-games. But well, it's a beta. It may be bettered?

Well, we need someone to buy it and tell everyone how it is when it comes out.
THIS IS MY 1000th POST  |

I totally agree with Aab-ern. It's better in some parts but of course not better overall than PCM. I don't demand they are better in the first, but i can see some potencial and hard workB)

We still haven't seen the manager part yet though, which may be worse or better than Cyanide. I think that is what will win it for me, and is something you can't see in a demo

You can really see what they are inspired by
I think its ok because I think they use the Gamebryo Engine
It´s easier for the old PCM gamer , because you´ll need less time to know where the buttons for attack and so on are
Also Aab, do you know what the stats limits are, because Steegmans has 90SP
I think its 99 , theres no space for 3 numbers

CC hasn´t got a developer team , they had recruited a team , which team -> I don´t know , but it looks like a spanish developer , the stats are on spanish , LL is llano which means flat

In Germany the game costs 35,60€ (amazon says so) |

Isn't it weird to hire a team to make a game? |
