I have a few days ago bought GP3 and am very pleased indeed with the game. I am riveted to the computer: Ferrari-red eyes with a sore arse and shoulder blades! It's as good as the buzz I got from first playing UT. I have never driven an F1 car so saying how accurate it is impossible but I get a sense that it is. It feels like a car not a toy. I recall Mobil1 Rally Champ and the disappointment I felt with the cars - nice graphics shit cars. But this is excellent all around, so far. I think I am going to get into this one. Computers open the door to so much fun. A second childhood!

I have both GP3 and F1 2000. I am still not sure which one I prefer.... Likes: GP3 graphics and replay function. With only a PII 333Mhz, I get more eye-candy. F1 2000 is easier to drive than GP3 with the aids turned off. F12000 is harder to drive with them turned on, unless you stray off the racing line in GP3. 'Rookie mode' GP3 has a car that is a LOT faster than the others. The cars look better in F12000 The circuit seems better laid out in F12000 and better matches the trackside buildings. (this may just be because it is the 2000 version) So, for me: I use GP3 to familiarise myself with the circuit! I use F1200 if I want to race! If I was a better driver, I think I might change my view! Steve Regular Racer <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:BQin5.1179$[email hidden]...
