F1 2010.. your thoughts?

I got this on PC and just tried a race in rainy weather, i have to say the graphics and sounds are immense. Running it at 1920x1080p, max graphics with vsync and full anti-aliasing on a 47 inch with logitech g25. If you are thinking about buying this game i recommend a steering wheel as it is a bit tricky to use with a controller. Overall I give this game 8.5/10

Just had my first session on PS3. Wow, just wow. It's amazing.

A racing game has never pumped me up so much! Looks amazing, sounds amazing, plays amazing.

Quite pleased with my first race result, qualified 21st in a Lotus then battled up to 10th.

The best part? Sticking one up the inside of Schumacher on the final corner for it!

Your PC is a freakin monster lol. Yeah I'm liking the game so far but I know I'm missing out on a lot without a wheel. Further down the line the stronger cars are gonna be near impossible to steer right without losing some speed.

Is there a demo? I am very interested in the game, but I don't know that much about it. I've heard that during the first seasons, you really have to struggle because you're in a crappy team with a not-so-good car and you sort of rise through the ranks as time goes on. I'm loving that.

I have some questions - can you drive the races in real-world conditions with 35 or so laps, team tactics, proper rules (penalty for not letting a driver that's in front of you for a full lap pass you by) and fully realistic pitting?

That shouldnt happen. If you use a wet trye then you only have to use one of the dry tyres... Actually come to think about it, Im sure you have to use the Prime tyre nomatter what. So if you started on the option then yeh, the game is correct. I dunno? lol.

And I also got the game today, im using a steering wheel on my pc and dammmmnnnn its hard lol. I put all the settings on max, difficulty up, no aids on. I think it might be a mistake lol.

For the first 30 minutes I found myself spinning out everytime I touched the accelerator. Slowly but surely I'm getting used to it and it feel so rewarding when I do something good. I'm in the Lotus and I managed to qualify 23rd (lol). I did this with my final possible flying lap, and the feeling of actually gaining a position was amazing. I seriously cant wait until I'm alot better and getting some faster laps in!

Wooooooooooo.

I'm not sure. I haven't run into that yet. (Haven't played too much because I should be doin homework... :D)

There is a pit glitch I'm reading about though i smaller races when you go to the pits they make you stay and wait for all the other guys to pass you by...

I hope this isn't another glitch...

Thanks, one thing really annoyed me though i just did a 12 lap race, came first but got disqualified because I didnt stick to the 'dry tyre rule' the thing is it was raining halfway through the race and I had to change to wet tires, its impossible to drive on a wet track with prime tires. what should I do about this?

Wasn't impressed , probably just delete it from my PC the handling is terrible for a sim.Graphics are ok but the tires look fake when you peel out and the audio effects are weak .Hate all the penalties ,reminds me of Dirt 2 allot except without the fun,glad i didn't buy it myself .Still waiting for Gran Turismo ... squidbilly22

His gpu is a 260, and he has a dual core. How is that a monster? Powerfull yes, but not a monster compared to todays hardware.

yet another multi console game with infearer quailty between consoles? xbox 1080p ps3 only 720p whats up with that?
