What Codemasters' doesn't want you to see...

Apparently, Codemasters' much bally-hooed racing title, Pro Race Driver, has had an "unofficial demo" circulating for some time now. It features early demo code with an unfinished game engine, experimental physics, basic AI, and a test model for car damage.

The code has surfaced on bootleg CD's and DVD's, and can be found under the current names:
  • UK/France: TOCA Race Driver
  • Germany: DTM Race Driver
  • Australia: V8 SuperCar Race Driver
  • USA/Spain: Pro Race Driver


Codemasters' has been sending out regular press releases for the game since last fall, so pirates making a buck off of advance copies comes as no surprise. Hopefully, the finished game will be worth the wait and will make the put the "demo" to shame.
