Volvo: The Game
 
Apparently SimBin have been working with Volvo to create a simulator of the new S60. Should be available today (Tuesday 26.5.09) from the Volvo website but I've yet to see it.

Here is a link to the SimBin website. Hopefully something to paste back later today.

damn, waited for it to download, and upon trying to install it says source file corrupt!! re-downloaded and it still says the same!! must hate windows XP 64.

Volvophile May 26th, 2009 13:27

Yeah, I downloaded it just there and it says 'Video Device Error, application will close.'

And I was really looking forward to playing it......

Oh ! I'm waiting 'til I get home and will put it on my PC but notice there is only limited support for Vista. If you're having probs with XP 64 then not looking good for Vista 64.

They must be using Microsoft software testing methodology. Let the users bugfix...
