The best F1 game of all time!
Graphics:
For today's standards, the graphics are practically near nothing. But back then, it was very good. Everything in the game is in 3D except the crowds which are still painted in 2D. The car designs closely resembles their real life counterparts and isn't really that off the mark. Overall, the graphcis are nice.
Sound:
The roar of the F1 engine is always a blast to hear. So as in this game as well. While theres no DD 5.1 surround supported, stereo use is enough to blast your speakers away.
Gameplay:
F1 cars aren't as hardcorish to drive as sports cars. So you won't get much of an arcade feel in here. Combine Gran Turismo and NFS: Hot Pursuit, an you'll get the feeling of handling an F1 car. The controls are much more sensitive than most racing games. Other than that, theres nothing much to say about the gameplay because practically your gold is to be first at the end of each race.
There are a couple modes you'd expect, single race, championship, weekend and 2 player mode.
Buy iT oR RenT it?
This game is already extinct actually. F1 fans should definitely have this game in their collection if they play games, other racing gamers though should try this game out.
