13649914905_b7dd54d57d_bA héten sem állt le egy pillanatra sem a Slightly Mad Studios Project CARS játékának frissítése, amely már a 698-as verziószámú változatát kaptuk meg pénteken. Az új verziót most a Junior Member státusszal rendelkező játékosok is élvezhetik, így érdemes nekik is beizzítani a Steam rendszerét és frissíteni a játékot.
