If you were not Michael E. Carver I would have assumed this was
a troll. Since CPR totally blew, and IMHO is no comparison at
all to F1 2000, I am very curious to know exactly why you did not
like F1 2000. Were you running it on a P-166 or something?
Wow.

In your opinion. In my opinion it does represent current F1
very good for a $30 PC racing game. Sometimes I just do
not know what is the matter with some of you people.
Why exactly would he be better off with GPL?
Or a bad un optomized computer. I am getting very acceptable
better than any other modern F1 game, heck even better or at
least as good as GPL.
Doesn't look much worse than GP2? Did you actually say that?
Whoa... we have a live one here!!! Haha.
In your opinion.
IMHO everything you said is wrong. But then again I am actually playing
F1 2000.

Just curious what CPU you have and what resolution you are trying to
play it in.

He doesn't sound like David Fischer. That dude likes to tell people to try
new sims, and not be biased or overly negative.
David G Fisher
Hmmm, that wasn't perhaps a biased answer, was it?
:-)
Actually, I think he's pretty annoying. :-)

PIII 650 with Voodoo3 2000....
I disliked the graphics, the dullness of some of the tracks, the way the
background crawled across the screen as it is drawn. I guess I
basically don't have the patience to hack the program to make it
"playable" (the AI, the "grip", the graphics, etc.). I thought the
sound was similar to a first grader imitating an F1 car (poorly at
that). The Forcefeedback was highly lacking.
It just didn't convince me that it was a finished product worthy of my
time. Maybe I just expected too much from the product and was totally
let down by its weaknesses to get it to it. It was fun to tool around
with, but it didn't have the lasting hold that I look for in a sim.
