Hehe, my favourite bit: > Put simply, you should not be able to drive flat through Eau Rouge holding the > racing line in seventh gear, in the wet, with a damaged front wing > without traction control. And yet, in GP4 you can with no difficulty. GP4 IS A TURD! Gerry

Each to his own, but I do detect a little bias I have both and I'm enjoying GP4 more. Regards Mike

How can he say F12002's graphics are better than Gp4. The AI is better in F12002. What a joke!!!! I agree that Gp4 has a slightly too high a grip level especially in slow corners. It is not very hard to drive but F12002 has too little grip for my liking and you never know when you are at the limit. Ofcourse I have no idea what is more realistic, but for me Gp4 is still more fun to drive than the driving on ice feeling you get in F12002. I don't care which game is more realistic, I pick the game which is the most fun for me. GP3 was actually had a better feeling and was a little more loose than GP4. I hope a physics editor will be out soon so we can tweak it a litte. ;-) Also he is wrong about the thing he says about Interlagos in GP4 being flat and without bumps. I can feel the bumps in the forcefeedback and it feels great. :-)

GP 4 is more *fun* to drive ... :-)

Maybe EA are paying him. GP4 has it's faults, especially the black flag nonsense, but I'd certainly question the credentials of anyone saying F12002 was more realistic. Maybe part of the problem is that real F1 cars aren't 'realistic' anymore in that they are now 'point and squirt' due to traction control......
