TrackMania 2 was announced at some french convention. I'll post what Google Translate spat out from the French website covering it, but in case some of you actually speak French, you can read it properly at the link below.

This is the video game festival in Paris Porte de Versailles, the president of Nadeo studio, Florent Castelnerac, announced Trackmania 2 exclusively on PC.Environment (set of 3 in the final version) was released: this is "Valley". A green background on which the cars move like cars series swollen with anabolic steroids. A video was shown during the conference and we must admit that the graphics have been severely improved compared to previous titles in the series. It is especially level of knowledge that progress is most obvious: the reflections on the body are bluffing, management of light sources is much deeper than before and the game is much more detailed. And all this without the small PCs are not excluded.Indeed, the goal for developers is to ensure that a PC that can run Trackmania Nations Forever Trackmania can run 2. A very commendable attention appreciate those who do not have a racing machine.Why Nadeo decided to create a Trackmania 2 is not so much to make a game more beautiful, but rather to push the concept of creating circuits further. Thus, it is now possible to import the game blocks (portions of roads that are used to create the tracks) you can create from scratch (geometry, texture ...). And then, the only limit is your imagination because you no longer have to confine you to block "official" at your disposal.But the announcement of the functionality that made the most noise in the audience was surely the presence of 4 modes in split screen! It is indeed possible to play more on the same PC in a Party mode (in which people join the party if they wish), a Cup mode (same as on Trackmania one knows) By the way Team (sort of relay races), and finally, the co-op mode (there is a campaign dedicated the medal to which each participant add up). The graphics are more beautiful, more game modes, creating opportunities for extended, Trackmania 2 already looks like a racing game on PC major.
