EB World has EA's F1 Championship Season listed for $14.95.  Of the people
who've played both it and Ubisoft's F1 Racing Championship, would F1CS be a
better buy at $15 than F1RC at $40?  That is, is F1RC head and shoulders
above F1CS?

  make sure your getting the Championship season and NOT F12k.  Amazon and
perhaps
others have confused the two.  Putting an old box picture with the new title
and then
supplying the details for the old game.  Have them verify it REALLY is CS if
you
decide to get it..

Just saw F12000CS at my local EB for $25 Cdn.  It's worth that much for
sure.  I also picked up CMR2, an arcader that normally wouldn't interest me
too much, but for $30 Cdn, it was a good deal.  Superbike 2001 was also $25
so I caved on that one too.  Thank goodness I have so little time to race
that a couple of full price sims keep me busty until all the rest are on the
remainder shelves!

It's most likely CS. It's selling for dirt cheap pretty well
everywhere. F12K is now released as an EA Classic too.

Yeah - grabbed F12KCS 2-3 weeks ago at Best Buy for $19.99 - seemed to be
regular price, it wasn't in the sales circular or anything.  They have F12K
as a "classic" (sans manual I'd bet) for like $14.99.

I'd say get F12KCS now because it probably will become an EA "Classic"
soon - meaning no manual - but for this one you're not exactly losing much
if the manual isn't included :-)

Part of the reason I think is that F1 2001 will be out fairly soon from EA I
think.

Think so? They are doing a completely new graphics engine for the next
one so it might take a while. If it's soon that would be great.

I picked Championship Season from Babbages last week for $19.99. Best Buy
had the shelf sticker for the product but were out of stock. The price on
the shelf was $39.99.

There's one in Fairlane Town Center.  Also any Software Etc stores are
part of Babbages.
