Anyone want to play Sega Rally Thursday (might change) I'm planning on getting my netlink copy Thursday and I can't wait to play :D I'll dial if it's in the Houston area, I don't have long distance so anywhere else the other person will have to dial.

Anyone? :P I can also do Virtual On if no one wants to do Sega Rally.

I got it working just in time, it seems!

I need to double-check to make sure it'll be okay for me to make a long-distance phone call, as I'm not the one paying the phone bill. :wink:

Also, if I can get it set up in time, I'm going to see if I can't get some kind of computer setup to listen in on the game while we play. My goal is to analyze the data later and see if I can't figure out exactly what our Saturns are saying to each other.

Sounds good! Do you have AIM or MSN so we can get on at the same time?

Great game warp! Next time when I choose my cars I need to remember that the Lancia Stratos is not meant to go around corners :lol:

At least not on sand. :D But on straight stretches it seems to be great!

Neither of us actually finished the race. The only reason I was ahead when it timed out was because I had a maybe half an hour total more play time/experience than you did. Neither of us had ever tried that car or course before. :P

All in all, awesome game. I hope to play you again soon!

Actually, I didn't see that I selected Manual transmission, so I sat at the starting line for a few seconds trying to figure how to shift. :lol: :roll:

This is why I loved xband and love 1 on 1. You just get more of a personal aspect than you do with newer services like Xbox Live.

Yeah, that was such a long time ago. I wish the Japanese would make a time machine, so we can all enjoy the greatness of Xband.

After I finish my Netlink project, I can look into the Japanese Xband if you like.
