Truck | Life-plaza

If you browse the high seas of game distribution, you’ve likely seen the "Truck Life-PLAZA" ISO pop up. But what exactly are you downloading? Is it a fresh alternative to SCS’s juggernaut, or just a wobbly first attempt? Let’s take it for a test drive.

Just don't sell your Euro Truck license yet.
