111.0. "Micro Machines V3" by COMICS::SUMNERC (OpenVMS Counter Intelligence) Tue Mar 25 1997 07:39

    
    Has anyone seen Micro Machine V3 ?  I'm certainly thinking off buying
    it.  How much is it ? and is it any good ?
    
    Cheers,

111.1Get it now!WOTVAX::FISHWICKJWed Mar 26 1997 09:469
    Yes, I bought it at the weekend and it is fantastic.
    	I love the original Micro Machines but the graphics on this are
    amazing. You can play with upto 8 players but weve only been playing
    with 4, this mode is excellent and to be honest weve not played
    anything else since I bought it.
    Buy it and get a sore thumb.
    ps. there are now power ups which make the game even better, as if that
    were possible.

111.3I've started saving for this one.CHEFS::CROSSAIt ain't loud enough, punk!Wed Mar 26 1997 11:3118
    Chris,
    
    From the reviews I've seen (try Absolute-Playstation.com for a fairly
    in depth one) everyone loves this game to bits. The bottom line seems
    to be - if you've played Micro Machines on other formats and enjoyed it
    just buy this straight away as it has enough improvements/enjoyment to
    make it a vital purchase.
    
    
    >>How do you get 4 players ? Do you need a connector ?
    
    Using the multi-tap will get you four player lunacy. As for the price
    i'm not sure, places like Toys R Us etc have these items.

    Does anyone know if the European Version of this game would work in
    my 'Modified' US Playstation? It runs Japanese games fine, but I'm 
    not sure about the NTSC / PAL thing.
