Trackmania United Forever !



This days I'm going to present first the games I kinda pwn. And this one is one of my heartbeat cause I have a 8th position for one map on world ranking. I have as well loads of good times but this is my best one.

For those who don't know trackmania is the perfect car game for those who doesn't really like car games. This is absolutely not realistic (You can still accelerate or slow down while in air) so it's just fun. There's only 4 buttons but the game is played at ESWC every year and the E-sport dimension is huge.


To be short I bought tis game something like 7 years ago and even if I don't play more then 4 times a year when I do it I do it with passion and it still is a game I don't get tired of.

When I first started playing there was a tournament in a well known European store. There I went with some friends to win but I had a big surprise ! When I arrived my friend who came earlier told me that there was no hope winning. I couldn't even believe him so I did my best and made something like 35.xx secs on the map pwning my friends. But then I checked the score on the board and it was written 32.xx .........
3 whole seconds I couldn't believe it ! I asked who was the alien and they told me it's this quite guy on the bench over here. I went to him and said: "From witch planet are you from ?" then we started talking about the game and we agreed to play after the tournament exchanging contacts. He beated the world record playing on  the map this day. I kept contact with him and he was often showing me results of trackmania tournament with France written, I thought he was showing me some stats of his little team.

This is where it gets fun ! 6 months later I look at the ESWC video and what did I see ?????? This guy from my region who won 1st place ! He then made 2nd and 4th every other years.


Sometimes I smile when I see that I beat one of his times ;) But enough for the epic stories. This game is so much worth it. It's 30 Euros since it's out and there's every game on the serie compiled in one. The whole stat system is the best I ever see in any game. I don't get tired of it after 7 years. There's a load of mods that I even prefere to the normal game wich already includes 7 differents types of gameplay. Plus try to immagine that the demo version had 9000+ maps coming out every DAY ! Needless to say you can't even put a number to the hours of fun you can have with trackmania forever.
