I saw Psygnosis F1'97 PC version on sale here in Europe. Any comments?
Much improved from the first F1 title by Psygnosis? Any value as a
sim? Demo available?
(Who am I kidding anyway? I already have F1RS. Just curious, I guess.)

All I can say is that it's Psy's F1 game improved but still 2 words:
Arcade game.

Don't forget where it's roots are - a game console. Personally
I find it good fun as a game - I cannot put the time/practice/set up
testing required by GP2, but can be "competitve" in F1 97
fairly quickly. So, as I game for fun, rather than pretending
to be Michael Schumacher for a weekend, it suits my "style".
It looks good, it feels good, I like it.

p.s. I have the Playstation version.

More specifically, it is even less fun to drive than the first game.
now needing to be driven like an Outlaw in order to get a half decent
lap time. The menu structure is slightly improved (although still
_very_ heavily Playstation influenced), but it's a "while away an
afternoon" thing, without offering even short term fun.
In this case curiosity could well kill the sim-fan's wallet. If you
want an arcader hold out for a demo and give it a whirl (TOCA and
F1RS-arcade mode are both better though) but it's not for the sim
fans.
Cheers!
