Hi Ken, Interesting. Sounds a bit like Need for Speed. I don't know how much I'd pay for such a game until I tried it but a couple of deciding factors would be dependant on if it was designed for a modern version of Windows, if it were say Linux compatible, and weather or not I liked the game play or not. In other words, if you are thinking of developing this game in VB 6 my answer is definitely no on the grounds that I use Windows 7 and Windows 8 on my Windows computers, and I already have enough games that are barely compatible with those operating systems. I have no intention of buying more that aren't 100% compatible with Windos 7 and Windows 8. However, if the game were then I'd consider $25 to $30 for such a game. If the game were Linux compatible I'd be even more likely to buy the game, because I wouldn't be restricted to one platform.
