The concept is silly but ignorable. The actual racing is not that bad…

I found it a little depressing. “Rangers crash out on the first corner”. Just like watching them in Europe.

Superleague is the most ridiculous series of racing I have ever seen. Motorsport and football should not mix.

Hmmm, and whatever happened to the Mayans

I saw a documentary called Alien vs Predator, it details the mayan demise on that.

I agree with Rob – F1C is last good F1 game. Rfactor is not good for F1: its fun to test cars and tracks with F1 mods (and make videos from it) but it cant beat F1C when it comes to single player and career\season mode. AI is too dumb in rFactor and authors of f1 mods for this game are focusing 95% on cars graphics and 5% on physics – you cant even setup an F1 car properly because they “forget” to adjust garage options. Ofcourse rFactor is superior to F1C when it comes to physics and it has potential but for now modders cant use it for some reason.
Anyway its pity that ISI cant do new F1 game.

They can’t afford to only focus on wheel control, but they should!

Driving with a joy pad/stick or heaven forbid, a keyboard is asking for not to be taken seriously.

As for F1C best capturing the feel of F1 (via keyboard)? That’s like saying Monet best captured the feel of a sunrise (rather than an impression.)

F1C best F1 game/sim? Nah, that accolade is either for GP Legends or GP4…

The core engine (gMotor2) was ported to Xbox 360 by Blimey for RACE 360

Sorry, but that’s slightly incorrect.
Simbin (not Blimey, the two companies have nothing to do with each other anymore) created their own engine, Lizard, and the game (RACE Pro) was the engine’s debut title.

I think it’s safe to say that gMotor2 will never get to consoles. It’s old tech anyway, and compared with the newer game engines available, it’s very out of date.

Slightly off-topic, I saw the Liverpool FC Superleague Formula car at Goodwood today.

There’s noone in the grandstands watching Superleague Formula, so why would there be an automatic market for a game?
