Just now i tried to download the Singtel Ultimate Race Simulator introduced by my dad. He told me to go download it since it is free in charge. At first, i thought of how "nice" the graphics will be like since it can be downloaded FREE-of-charge. So read the review in the newspaper/internet and found it rather interesting.
Brought to us by Singtel.
It claims to be "one of two custom-built simulators that will allow everyone to experience the adrenaline rush of being in the driver’s seat of a Formula OneTM car."
And also "it replicates the night race in great detail, and drivers get the added thrill of whizzing past iconic Singapore landmarks such as the Esplanade and City Hall. "
Wow.Looks fun.
So after dinner, i turned on my laptop and type in www.singtelrace.com in an attempt to get my first hand experience quickly. Was first greeted with a high-quality video whereby a Formula OneTM car was racing, passing by Esplanade and the Singapore Flyer. This somehow let me think that the simulator graphics is going to be real cool.
So went to sign up and download the simulator. The installation takes SUPER long time. So while waiting, i went to surf websites. And suddenly i got an error message saying a component cannot be installed and asked me to go to the the Microsoft help center.=.= Carried on installing other components and started the game without caring much.
And! The result was, the application CRASHED somehow when i tried to replay something.=.=
Sian. Restarted and uninstalled. Wasted man, i want to "to experience the adrenaline rush of being in the driver’s seat of a Formula OneTM car" one leh!!=.= Roarrrrrrrr.
