A friend of mine recommended this game to me a while back. I still fire it up a few times a month to play. You can try out the free version here http://www.trackmanianations.com/indexUk.php# If you like it after trying the free version, you can upgrade to the newest retail copy for $30 http://tmu.gamesplanet.com/campagne/promo....;jeu=Trackmania This is NOT a racing sim, it's full blown arcade style fun. Lots of crazy stunts and jumps. It's something fun to do when you have 15-30 minutes to kill. |

I've had a lot of fun with it.
The learning curve is about 30 seconds. If anyone remembers a 90's racing game called stunts, this is similar to it. It's a really great game that got very little press for 2 reasons. 1) It was mainly advertised in EU 2) The full version is only available via download thru Steam So are you playing the free copy or the $30 version? |

For those whp tried the new version, what's your thouhgts?
It seems harded the the last copy, takes a lot more tries to beat each race for the gold. Still fun, seems a little more polished overall. |
