rFactor just got another boost...

Forget about any useful F1 sims being released for a couple of years: "UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. - May 9, 2008 - Codemasters�, developer and publisher of award-winning racing video games, has secured the exclusive video game rights to FORMULA 1. In a worldwide licensing agreement with Formula One Administration Limited, Codemasters will develop a new generation of the multi-million selling FORMULA 1 game franchise across multiple platforms." At least they are honest about their products: ;) "As a world-leading creator of driving games, this alliance with FORMULA 1 is ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the jewel in Codemasters' racing crown and creates an undisputed segment champion." rF modders, you're sim racer's last hope. l8er ronny

Yea, will most likely be crap. Wonder why Sony gave up the license anyway? Their PS3 F1 game/sim is supposedly decent and even though I own a PS3 I refuse to buy racing games that are designed around a gamepad.
