To be honest we wouldn't need much more than a proper facelift with it.I still enjoy this game a lot.How about GP5 Geoff ? Also Race07 is pretty good...although that's not a F1 game as well as RBR for rally fans !Cheers Another Flying Finn Yes, it’s amazing that GP4 is STILL clearly the best F1 game.

Oh great, 1:30 races with no overtaking other than the pits. I hope Poliphony Digital gets the rights and include all cars in GT5. EA decent games?? I can't believe somebody said this...

Its my first game and its pretty decent though i am not a very good player and i learnt a lot about the car handling through the game. i hope we can have a new game as soon as possible... its been a long time playing f12002. may be they can give it to EA they make decent products...and it can they be across platforms as well.. the only game i could find for myself was EA F1 2002.

Went in the loft & eventually found GP4... Loaded it up & have to say it looks surprisingly good. One of the good things is, I've been able to put the detail on max for everything, something I could only dream about 5 years ago!! The random weather is one feature I don't think has ever been improved on, bloomin' great... Well, I did it.

If you don't have driver wheel to the PC (Xbox/Playstation etc.) you have no real chance to have good fun. 2. If you have a w driver wheel the game is too hard to play without the driver aids and the setup is too complicated for normal users. 3. You have to play online to have some fun but you have no chance to be one of the best beacuse there will be always some others better players. Offline game is very bad and have no good chance to get fun.In Grand Prix 3 by Geoff Cramond the game was having all. Good fun for keyboards players and for players with Driver wheels. Not that advance setup and very easy to get good setup and win games.Great offline play with all tracks and very good oponnents that you was having fun to fight.Grand Prix 4 was good but have few problems and had been bot that good like GP3. But i think if Grand Prix 4 was having ONLINE gaming it was the best F1 game of all time.Grand Prix 4 + Online and we relly have best game in F1 that i'm sure. Easy but not to easy. With having fun for all family not only for hardcore players. I think rFactor is very good game but have couple problems

Accepted wisdom (could be wrong though) was that EA has bought the license in early 2008 and will produce a game for next year. EA has confirmed it has signed up Lewis Hamilton so I suspect Lewis Hamilton F1 Racing 2009 will be a likely first title.Knowing EA games it is likely to be very arcadey in feel. Personally I don't mind that. I spend enough time reading about F1 on the net so I don't think my wife would let me get away playing some game for hours. A good blast around Monaco for 20 minutes is all that I want from a game.Agreed that we need a game though. Come on bernie Interesting report from Pitpass.

Good smooth graphics and difficult/realistic enough for me. rFactor isn't an option because it doesn't run on my computer (well, the demo doesn't) and BATRacer just kept malfunctioning. Since I refuse to get a console, the only official F1 game more recent than GP3 is GP4. Still, I suppose that if Bernie doesn't want the money from a market that's grown a lot since the Sims phenomenon kicked off, that's his lookout :( I still play Grand Prix 3 occasionally.
