681403 2008-06-23 07:42:00 Just found this game's link (files.filefront.com)

Its called Trackmania Nations Forever

On the Netguide site, and its free. And you can play it online

Or by yourself

The screenshots on the above site (down the bottom) look pretty bloody amazing, for a free game.

If you want a faster download, get it here (www.gpdownloads.co.nz)

You'll need broadband, as it's 503 mb.

681404 2008-06-23 07:44:00 Yup, i have it, i highly recommend it!!! It is the best game i have played, and you dont need the greatest computer in the world to play it on high graphics =)

There is also thousands of servers all over the world aswell!

Also here is the official site... Sorry Speedie!!!

681406 2008-06-23 07:55:00 Yup I went there to get it but the only thing I saw was you had to pay to get it. I also tried some servers from that site to get it, they were way too slow. It would have taken nearly an hr and 1/2 to get it lol

So, I managed to find a NZ server so the download would be faster, and it was 3-4 times faster

I wonder how long it will take on my 5kb download speed?

681408 2008-06-23 08:27:00 Yeah, I've been playing it for the last couple weeks or so, it's a fantastic game and it doesn't get boring, actually it gets more fun :P I like how everything you do adds up, and your ranking is shown, for your country and for the world. The multi-player system is also awesome, good that other n00bs can't hit you, so you can have a whole bunch of people playing against each other, can represent our country in the track mania racing Olympics :)

Its so challenging, I like doing the acrobatic stages, they take me a while usually, but they're really addictive so generally i don't stop till I've gotten a gold medal. Recently I've been playing too much of RD GRID, but I still get a lot of TMNF in between, as a break :D

Getting a laptop to keep me busy in between classes for next semester ( a couple days where there is a gap of more than an hour and not worth it to drive home & back) so expect me to be high up in the NZ rankings soon... it's all I'll play, since GRID is too demanding for a budget laptop.

Are you the Xnet / River plan? If you are it should only take 25-30 mins, if you get it from the NZ server

681410 2008-06-23 22:48:00 This game will be on the upcoming cover disc of PC World, to save you some bandwidth. I suggest someone set up a PressF1 league :) Jan Birkeland (4741)
681411 2008-06-23 22:55:00 Perhaps PCWORLD could run a server, Just saturate it with advertising and ensure its mostly broken so we know which one it is.:xmouth::D
