I saw this game at Best Buy today, graphics look excellent and I really
liked the job Ea did with F1CS2k, but before I buy, I was wonering what
you guys thought of the game. So whats it like? Good physics? Good
AI? Blah, blah, blah?
Thanks
Nick

The graphics are awesome, as are the crashes. Track modelling seems to be
pretty accurate, but the physics left a bit to be desired. The most annoying
thing with the physics is the wheelspin, there is either full grip with no
wheelspin, or full wheelspin with no grip, which is highly unrealistic
unless riding in the wet with street tyres ala Australian Supersport class.
AI seems pretty good most of the time, not 100%, but no game has come close
to that. I like it, but the wheelspin just made me too frustrated in the
end. Give it a try

The best.
As for the physics. They take a little getting used to, but if you get your
set-ups right, they are superb. It is easier to handle the bike with all
help features OFF. It seems strange, but it's true.

Yup, have yet to see a bike sim do it right. SB2001 is the closest
however. The steering isn't quite right nor is the wheel spin. Maybe
SB2002 will get it right? ;)
Excellent title. Highly recommended. Better than all other bike sims to date
(GP500 comes closest)
