Anything on Official Formula 1 Racing from Eidos ? Ad in June '99 issue
of
CGW says "Out Now" but Eidos site doesn't even mention it.

I believe I saw this at an Outlet Mall in Kansas City for $40... They also
had Monaco GP (F1RS II) and SportsCar GT as well....

I decided to hold off that one, and until I had a chance to read some
reviews, both here and in the magazines (I've already got 3 F1 games as it
is) although the graphics / screen shots on the box looked pretty damn good!
Sorta like Monaco but with authentic tracks, cars, etc... Rather than the
generic ones as this game is licened by the FIA, whereas F1RS II is not....

But you can download all the 99 cars for F1RS2 from the net anyway..the
graphics from the Eidos game also look very similar to F1RS2 so I'm waiting
for a review before I buy, I don't have much faith in Eidos when it comes to
realistic racing sims
