IndyCar Series Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a native of Indianapolis and am a fan of Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS) and like PS2 racing games.I enjoy racing around IMS in my PS2 Nascar Thunder and Formula 1 games, so I was very excited about IndyCar Series when it came out and I could race the 230+ MPH vehicles I watched many times in person over the years on the track that I know so well.
But, as other reviewers have noted, there is no steering wheel support for this game (I have the Logitech wheel, which is essentailly the standard for PS2), but I don't think that you would know that from the information on the box for the game.I can imagine the look on my face when I plugged in my wheel and... nothing.
The game plays OK with the standard controller and the graphics and sound are decent, but it just isn't the same as driving with a well-calibrated wheel in your hand.I'll make sure I research my next racing-related product first.

F1: Formula One Championship Edition Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Unlike other reviewers, I'm going to base my rating on what the game offers, not what could have offered.

Positives:
1 The game offers a bunch of driving aids for n00bs.
2 The graphics are fantastic even though the output is only 720p you will be amazed when the rain starts to pour down.
3 The tracks and the environment around them are perfectly detailed.
4 The presentation is 99% TV- like. Including displays, commentary, camera angles, etc.
5 You can set up the car just the way you want. You can change more than 15 aspects, including the basics (tires, wing, brakes) and advanced (camber, gear ratio, brake bias).
6 The online mode is really entertaining. There are a bunch of options that allow you to enjoy the race without getting bothered by n00bs or a-holes.
7 You can earn rewards like tracks and cars by playing the different game modes (career, single race, time trial, etc).

The only negative thing I could find is the difficulty mode. Easy mode is too easy, and medium feels almost impossible, forget about difficult, you'll never see the cars infront of you again. And also, when racing in the dark, either dusk/dawn, the track is almost impossible to see, even in hd. You'll have to guess your way around the track for the career mode tests.

Of course as an avid f1 fan I would have liked to see more things included in the game, the pace car, corner workers, marshalls, etc. But that will not stop you from having a heck of a time with this game.

F1: 2010 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)F1 2010 is a great simulation-style racing game. If you're looking for power-ups, time extension bonuses, and crazy over-the-top tracks; look elsewhere. But if you're looking for a game that accurately represents the thrills of the F1 season and all the turns of each international track, then this is a good choice. I love how great this game feels with the Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel. I've been playing Forza for the past few years, and this game feels even better with Microsoft's racing wheel. You can adjust the settings, but the defaults are suprisingly good. The "feel" of the handling is better than any other game I've played - and that's saying a lot since I own a lot of racing games.
