F1 2002

Description

Up-to-date racing teamsReview The developers at EA Sports turn their attention to Formula 1 for the first time on the GameCube, and with F1 2002 they have once more produced an accessible, enjoyable, and challenging game--one that still needs a little work but has much to offer. As ever with EA Sports, the game is thoroughly buffed up with official team names, tracks, drivers, and the like, accompanied by their usual high standards of presentation. Frankly, it's hard not to feel sucked in from the minute the game boots up. The gentle learning curve allows you to opt for shorter, easier races before ultimately making your way to a full Formula 1 season, where you'll need to brace yourself for the incredible challenge posed by the computer-controlled opposition. Each race offers warm-up, qualifying, and pit decisions, and you can choose between a simulation or a more arcade-esque game. It's not too easy to get to grips with at first, but once you're on track F1 2002 feels right, and it does give you the sense that you're in the middle of a full-fledged Grand Prix. Getting the most out of F1 2002 requires patience and practice, though, and if you aren't willing to apply both, then a more arcade-y racing game such as Burnout should be nearer the top of your list. Likewise, if you bought last year's not dissimilar effort on the PS2, then you may be better off seeking an alternative challenge. But if you're willing to put in the time, and you get a kick out of racing games, then F1 2002 is well worth considering. --Simon Brew -- Amazon.co.uk Product description Get ready to break a few records, because this is the fastest-paced F1 racing game ever bar none. Detailing the complete 2002 season, F1 2002 includes the all-new Toyota F1 and Renault F1 teams. Of course, all of the other teams are also here, and they're ready to roll. Amazing 3D graphics and unparalleled physics set this game above similar fare, and the classic Challenge mode has been complete reworked for this installment. Challenge the computer, or see how your skills stack up against a friend's.
