Righto. In that case the setup I’ve got at the minute will be perfick. Neutral balance with a slight err to oversteer right on the limit.

I’m currently thinking of giving you 2 different tunes for the car. 1 which is set for A600 and another that is the most that I can possibly get from the car (so somewhere in the S675 region). The A Class car will be a stealth machine and the S Class will be a bruiser.

Tends to be pretty aggressive I must admit

Glad that I’ve chosen a good ‘un.

As I said previously, I’ll keep a bit of a log of what I’ve done and in what order along wih pictures etc and send you it.

Just a quick one, what’s your driving style? As I can tailor the tune to suit.

I’ve been doing something very similar Lee, finished up a load of games and haven’t bought anything new. I’m working my way through the unfinished catalogue and have got the console stuff down but I daren’t look at Steam because there are so many games on there I bought cheap over Christmas that would be a major challenge!

Right now I’m just ploughing through more races on Forza from time to time. But I’m liking the stock Project C photo Nothing wrong with getting stuck into a project you enjoy, can’t wait to see the results!!

No probs.

That certainly sounds an interesting combo of voice and text. Might have to take a gander after I finish ACII, Forza and Burnout. My gaming project for this year has been (ironically) 12 in 12.

I realised that I wasn’t actually finishing a lot of games (a mixed blessing of Trophies and Achievements), so I set myself a target of finishing at least 1 game a month. So far I’m ahead having finished Modern Warfare 2(first Plat), FM2 (as much as I can considering online has been deserted), Prof Layton, GT PSP, God Of War Chains of Olympus and New Super Mario Bros. It’s a good way to get the most out of your games!

Regarding Project C, that picture was stock. Since that picture, a Performance Enhancement Programme has begun; overseen by Groom Racing UK LTD in order to race prepare the car. Initial results are good, showing the potential for Project C to be large. Following that conclusion of the PEP, the Project C will be released to Groom Design UK for paint.

*Okay, I’m taking a bit seriously, but I find it fun and take pride in producing good results.

They have certainly kept very quiet about this game, when it really deserves more shouting than it has received.
Voicework is very solid Lee, they’ve taken voice actors who specialise in videogames and a ton of anime stuff so it’s professionally done.
One of the odd things though is a lot of the dialogue is text only, then suddenly you get a few lines of spoken voice mixed in with it which is a bit bizarre.

I shall take a look at your Storefront, can’t wait to see the results. Cheers mate

Thanks for the review Pete.

This really has snuck under my radar. It seems pretty interesting. Ther thing that has really frustrated me about JRPGs in the last few years has been the quality of the voice acting. How is it in Nier?

PS: Project C is progressing reasonably. I’ve put a picture of it as Stock on my Storefront. Plenty to come out of it. Plenty.

No not really but its more Western than Japanese anyway.
But the soundtrack is rad.

So this is probably not the title for me to ‘break into’ Japanese RPG / Action – Adventure ?

Though I’d get the sound track on your recommendation !
