In your opinion which is the best database currently released for PCM08?
I.e. accurate stats, stability, equipment, graphics etc..
interested to hear peoples opinions.

A.S.O.DB:
It has great graphics, good stats and some additional equipment, but they messed up the potentials by lowering them. This makes the riders progress slower, which makes it more realistic, but the older riders looses all their stats way too quick. Levi Leipheimer had 73 MO before the Vuelta...
Also a lot of track riders, although they have the same stats.
Eeyors Reality Pack:
Lots of equipment, but the stats are way off.
PlusPackage:
Very few graphical changes. But the best stats in my opinion.
PCM Fusion Track DB:
I installed this along with the A.S.O.DB.
It has a huge ammount of track riders and all of them has individual stats

Secondind this. Im no fan of Dankan's stats really and the A.S.O.DB has some minor flaws all around.
The DB im currently playing with is P&A DB'08 which is just a lot of new equipment, three new teams, some odd stats and for some reason some riders that appear to be fictional.

Just started a career with the ASO DB.
Must say once you get used to the graphics and design scheme - which at first look awful - it's a very good DB.
Played a few mountain/hilly stages and the time gaps are reasonably realistic.
Like it better than the PCM Real Name DB so far.....
ASO DB incorporates the new equipment better than Eeyors DB too....I hate untidy menu's.
EDIT: When I say graphics and design scheme - I'm only referring to the in game menu's and color scheme's. The actual in game graphics of the new equipment,etc, is great.

Btw, has anyone tried the PackEvans DB?
Looks to be a French DB and can be found on the Cyanide forums.... |

No, Lachie, the ASO DB seems to have the AI teams riding whatever bikes they like.
Not a big deal for me...I prefer the nice menus to having some of the teams on the correct bikes. |

But the only reason to have more bikes is to have the teams ride their bikes, not? Your riders have not the slightest benefit from the added equipment. It is purely a visual thing.
So conclusion would be, if someone needs screenshots to tell a story he should use eeyors DB, the rest who just wants to fool around with equipment can use ASO DB.

Yes, I simply like to have a choice of bikes for my team.
As far as I know, Eeyor's DB doesn't have all the teams on the right bikes - eg LPR on De Rosa, so I don't see the point in having some teams on the right bikes and not others, especially if you're playing as a continental team....
