F1 world grand prix is simply great for many reasons.
When you load up the game, you are treated to seeing loads of cars whizzing about, and other F1 related stuff, which leads you into the menus which are easy to navigate and really do not become annoying in any way.
I selected Exhibition, and was greeted with a screen full of options, including cars, tracks and so on. So anyway, Michael Schumacher selected (with champion level handling - rock hard.
I challenge a newcomer to the game to make it round the course in belgium in under 2 minutes without a spin on champion level) at Belgium.
The lights begin to come on, and....it...is.....GO! First problem (though no fault of the game, just my terrible handling of an F1 car, I get huge amounts of wheelspin and drop to 8th from 1st.
Can't get much worse.... oh yes it can. A heavy spin into a crash barrier damages the car, ripping off a wheel.
Make no mistake about it - at champion level, F1 World grand prix is as realistic as you'll ever want.
This is pretty much good, as too many F1 games nowadays allow you to keep the pedal to the floor for most of the time, and although rookie level will allow this, it means you can choose just how you like your game - forgiving, or like a real F1 car.
The only real fault is the frame rate - a few times it becomes a little choppy, but no doubt you'll be too busy trying to win to notice.
On the whole, the game is really good. A real choice for F1 fans.
