NEW GRAND PRIX SIM !!!!!!!!

I had a look at the games domain site and found a demo of an an up and coming
f1 game..

First glance it looks ok, its a bit of a cross between gp2 and f1 but the
bitmap graphics (textures) look like they have been ripped out of gp2!

Best bit of all though is it supports 8 PLAYER NETWORK!!!!

As far as i can gather the name is Full On F1 and the demo (F1demo.exe)
is 3.5 megs.

It is quite a puzzle to get it up and runing too! I'd agree with your
assesment. Looks like it has potential... but then, do we need another
GP2, or perhaps a "poor man's GP2", especially with Psygnosis' new F1
for the playstaion? I think they rushed this thing in to demo form...
it is still embryonic. But they aren't idiots- it has some nice
features, cool camera shots and the course I looked at certainly was
familiar enough to me from GP2 and Psygnosis' F1 for the playstation.

Now, how about a new Indycar sim, anybody?

I've played the demo, and it was shit.
The moment that I remember was driving up to stowe (silverstone), having a sign
flash up saying "brake now" or something. Didn't bother to brake, just got somewhere near
stowe and turned right. The car just turned as if on rails stright onto the grass, no loss of
speed, no spin, just continued to turn in the same fashion, back onto the track (after the bend)
and carried on.
One for arcade fanatics only (and there are better arcade games)
