You enjoy no mouse, nor no gamepad support. Keyboard or wheel only.
I had heard some good stuff about this on the digital sportspage
forums. Too bad...

The no-mouse support doesn't bother me. As far as the gamepad goes, why
would you want to use one? Get a wheel.

I have the XBox version and using a gamepad is pretty wicked. Game is a lot
of fun online. I'm enjoying myself.

Seems pretty decent as far as a sim goes, though I wouldn't know much about
that. The cars seem to handle fairly realistically.

It's the sequel to TOCA.

I have no desire to play a racing game with my mouse and the demo
works fine with my gamepad...

I would highly recommend skipping the PC version of the game and get the
Xbox version instead. This is definitely one of those games that Xbox
Live support makes a gigantic difference.

I haven't tried the PC version, I only have Xbox, and while I played it
a little before my Xbox got the "it looks like your disc is dirty"
clippy-like message and had to send it in for repair, I was sold on it
pretty quickly.

What does Xbox Live do that online PC multiplayer gaming doesn't?
