GPL = A multitude of beautiful noises dissipating from those 8, 12 or
16 cylinders mixed with the sounds from the cars around you.
GP3 = A buzzsaw. One buzzsaw.
GPL = I trust in God and my skills to stay on the road
GP3 = I need downforce and fat tires to stay on the road
GPL = I think F1 drivers did it "back then" because it was fun and a
challenge. I think F1 drivers now do it for glamour, money and girls
GP3 = what's "back then"?
GPL = AI drivers are a challenge and with individual skills
GP3 = AI drivers are a nuisance
GPL = different cars have different top speeds, engine temperaments,
sounds, gearboxes, suspensions, dashboards and colors and more
GP3 = different cars have different colors
GPL = The ability to use any steering wheel know to mankind with full
three axis support and fully twaekable FF support.
GP3 = "Huh, should I buy two joysticks now or what"?
GPL = hair on the chest (Ms. Hine et al excluded)
GP3 = translucent complexion and weak limbs
Need I go on? Don't even get me started on graphics.

10, minus 1 for the absence of AI cars sound,
minus 1 for poor 3D graphics,
minus 0.5 for the 2 years old season (98),
minus 0.5 for putting (what's his name?) instead of J, Villeneuve,
minus 0.5 for the limited number of views (1) that give you the
speed/gear/gas/etc information.
I'm eager to see what rating the US magazines will give to the game.
Americans aren't sold to F1 racing and should make more objective
reviews.

Good god. And there I was a couple of days ago parising PCG's tough
marking policy. Another one bites the dust... having played it for a
couple of hours, I think somewhere in the high 70s would be nearer the
mark - I'm certainly not returning it, it's a good game, but it's not
even close to the "revolutionary simulation system" advertised on the
box. It can't even cope with controllers with more than 4 buttons, fo
heaven's sake...
