Why is it no one can seem to produce a decent game in this genre ? I have many sims in my collection, some good ( GP 500, N3 and GPL ) and the rest piss poor ( Mgprs, Cpr, F1 2000) then of course theres Toca 2, nice graphics smooth frame rate but unfortunately a little too arcadey and limited in options but still a good game none the less. Its so annoying that ( being a F1 fan first and foremost ) that the best sims are in other Msports. I have GPL but am not a fanatic about it, it is a great simulation for sure, but I crave for the modern day experience which I can relate to more. My fav game is GP 500 as this game does not forgive mistakes and the way the bikes brake is awesome, you just wanna go that little bit deeper into the braking area each time just to see if you can keep it upright and make a couple of tenths etc.. but you gotta keep it smooth and fluid out of the tight slower corners if you want to maintain a good corner speed. Why can`t this kind of game be replicated with F1 cars ? Damn it hurts. Check this out, F1 2000 made number 2 in the all format charts according to PC Gamer, only being beaten by Pokemon. EA are sure good at making money but how the hell they did it with that game is beyond me. I beleive Geoff Crammond will deliver the goods with GP3, lets face it the competition sucks, he will have to make one big F*** up to lose out to them, I mean I only want One good game because if it is truly good it will entertain me for ages. Sorry to bitch and whine but I hope there are others who feel the same way. Snake.
