MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIEMENTS

  • You probably need some space on your hard drive. How much depends on what applications you already have.
  • A force-feedback joystick is essential. On the other hand, you could try using a mouse.
  • A computer may also be useful, if you've got one.

    INSTALLATION
    Note: Follow the on-screen instructions, if there are any, as they guide you through the installation process.
