Geoff Crammond has a history
of knocking out excellent
car games, Revs and
Stunt Car Racer being two
brilliant examples. But why
rest on your laurels when
you can sit and slave for a
year at a piece of software
which surpasses all your
previous efforts? Mircoprose's
Formula One Grand Prix is the last word in highspeed
driving games, except that it's not a game at all.
Its an accurate simulation of a full Fl season, with all the
attention to detail which we've come to expect from the
masters of sim. The teams are there, the tracks are there,
all accurately mapped from the real thing. If you happened
to videotape the Monaco Grand Prix earlier this
year, for example, put it on with the Fl Grand Prix version
next to it and you'll notice that all the buildings are exactly
where they are in real life! Whilst realism is important in
any kind of sim, so too is playability and Grand Prix
certainly scores here. Pull on your helmet, make sure the
fire extinguisher's working and boot up Formula One
Grand Prix, the fastest, smoothest, most exhilarating
drive this side of Monaco!
