Comments on: Astraware GTS Racing Review

GTS Racing Review - Palm SoftwareThe release of OS5 and the Tungsten T ushered a whole new era of optimism for the Palm OS and the Palm-economy in general. However, despite purchasing an original Tungsten T upon release in November 2002, I didn’t find a particular wow-worthy gaming title that levered the full capabilities of OS5 until the spring of 2003. That fateful day was when Astraware and Pazzazz Games released what many gamers claim is still the definitive Palm OS racing title, GTS Racing. I immediately purchased the game upon its initial release and have been playing it on and off for nearly four years now. Read on to see how this time-tested program has aged extremely well (with the help of an occasional update from Astraware, of course!)

Just a quick note for everyone:

The first pic (the red car by itself) is of the regular 320x320 Palm version of the game.

The two widescreen shots are from the Zodiac-enhanced version.

Sad

I think it is certainly a bit sad to read a review of GTS Racing in the year of 2007 and still rated it as still one of best Palm OS game titles. Doesn't that mean the Palm platform is so bad in gaming?

While GTS racing is good in 2003 or 2004 at maximum. I am sure anyone have seen what game graphics are capable on a Sony PSP!

If you are looking for funny games, look at Nintendo NDS and you will wonder why Palm games can't have the same fun!

Seems like you have to know the secret codes to turn the car. Cryptic - anyone know what a 'Hard One' is? (Aside from the obvious humor). Can't play it at this point, so kind of hard to say if I'd want it, but looks like it could be fun.
