F12001 No Cd

Anyone know where I could get hold of the no CD crack for F12001. I
have the game and just to prove the point I think EA have let us down
again with a less than perfect game. I noticed this time that there
was no reviews before launch and no demos on cover discs. I wonder
why? Just think about it, staff within EA know how ***this title is
and have supressed the truth to maximize sales. WHat a corrupt and
greedy world we live in. I bought the PS2 version as well ( I know
doubly sad)  and although neraly every part of it looks good it plays
like a dog. The steering is so difficult (with a dual shock) to adjust
to that I think most people will get fed up before they have even
played for 5 minutes. The other very strange feature of the PS2
version is that it seems to cut engine power for no reason. I know the
hardened gamers out there will say thats traction control but as I
dont have it turned on I still dont understand. I think EA got the
master discs mixed up a and sent the wrong one for replication. I will
never buy an EA game again until I have seen a review. I learn't the
hard way yet again.

Foolish troll. Read some reviews in this here newsgroup. A few are not so
enamoured with it, but most of us think it's the dog's ***.
As for the no-cd crack, why on earth would you need it for a game you so
blatantly hate ?

And as long as we're trolling, I'll toss in that I'm pretty sure that's the
first time I've heard 'dogs ***' used as a substitute for 'really
good' or 'enjoyable'.  Ah, the powers of the english language...

Hey red work for Sony or are you an American who doesn't appreciate
the very essence of racing. And to answer your point I would like to
have it on the PC anyway. Sort your life out mate try GP3 or even F1
Racing on a high spec machine. I hope your not the norm.

Norm, who ?

American?
What, in god's name, are you going on about ?
I was only enquiring why on earth you would want the crack for a game you
despise ? What's up with you ?
I'll e-mail you the no-cd if you are desperate. No hard feelings, mate.

You can get a no-cd crack here.

I don't agree with your negative comments about F12001. There are a
few issues that need to be addressed with a patch, but overall it's an
outstanding sim.

I appologise for my rather snappy and rude reaction. Having got the
graphics so they look half decent, I agree its an okay sim on PC. I
think my annoyance is mostly directed at PS2 version which could have
achieved greatness except for the stupid programmers ruining the most
important thing..the steering. Having spent a fortune on both products
and been a huge F1 Sim fan I fealt let down on both products. EA
unfortunately have to get product out very quickly to ensure there
profits for the last qtr. This is where business has a detrimental
effect on games and hurries development teams. Another couple of weeks
and both games could have reviewed in the 90s. I'll let you know what
the UK games press say when they get hold of a review copy.

Cheers and appologies again.
