Do you like to splash n go? Even Slingshot, Doughnut and the Turkey Walk? Don't sweat, it's just some racing lingo to get you in the groove. Go! Go! Go!

Amazing Graphics and Sound, Great lengthy gameplay, various modes, great sense of speed.

Repetitive presentation, you have to be a Formula One fan to truly enjoy the game.

I remember playing Formula one on PC way back in 2002, it was a great game and good fun on LAN. But for the past few years no company has developed any major Formula One title, that left the fans with no option but to play the old game again and again. This year when Sony announced their Formula One title on the PS3, fans were really thrilled. The game is finally out and yes, it's a great game. The only issue is that you need to be a hardcore Formula One fan to really enjoy the game. Now let's see what the game has to offer.



The Race for Perfection

What makes Formula One so great? Formula One is a test of one's temperament and driving skills; there is a sense of supremacy attached to it that no other sport can offer. It requires a driver to respect the racing track and high concentration levels to navigate through those really lethal turns. Acquiring these skills and actually delivering good performance on tracks is the challenge. Just the thought of racing at a speed more than 300 Km an hour taking mortal turns could get your adrenaline rushing.

Well, the reason I am talking about Formula One basics is because to play this game you need to know everything about the sport. Don't be intimidated, the game is easy by default for beginners, but for a Formula One veteran, there is a lot to explore here. The car and racing physics have been tuned to perfection therefore higher levels of difficulty require loads of concentration. Next up are the key features of the game.

ok, for some reason i find it hard to believe that TT owns a PS3 and buys game to review and all that. Which means all this is plagiarised. which brings us to the point. Would it really hurt your pride, or whatever it is that compels you to do this sort of thing, to post a link directing he viewer to the GENUINE site, which actually HAS reviewed this title? I can see that some people fall for the gag, but honestly, most of us dont. and most of us are sick of seeing on TT what we've just seen on ign or neoseeker or engadget or something just a few hours earlier. So get with th PLAN TechTree and be HONEST.

Seriously tt guys, pay some thought to what is being pointed out. All this plagiarism is now no longer funny so suck it up and link us to some nice elaborate review instead of penning done a speculative review along with some low res pics from google image.

hey angad.......i can assure you they have a ps3.....this is cause i once wrote to the editor about the same and he asked me to come see it.......ive been to techtree....and ive seen it...its awesome!

Yea I know we need a more detailed and a slightly more elaborate review of the same.However I don't doubt they own a ps3( I don't see what's so great about owning a console?..they are really cheap if u ask me compared to a fully fledged gaming pc,ps3 retails for 28 k in the grey market) and they propably don't have to pay for legal copies of games and these maybe supplied by publishers,at least this is the way it works for most mags online or otherwise.I don't mind buying a gaming console like a xbox 360 or a ps3 afterall its a one time investment and you can play ripped games on 'em.(Yea consoles aren't piracy proof).The only thing is you might need an hdtv to enjoy the complete experience and a lot of ppl don't have these.However with games like bioshock,gow3,halo 3 and of fallout makes it all the more reason to get a powerful gaming system.If you have the funds to go in for a powerful dual core rig loaded with a good direct x 10 card then its good for you otherwise consoles are always an option.They have several AAA titles after all.

I had played the Formula 1 game for PS2 and it was simply gr8. So, this one is got to be much better but only a true F1 fan will enjoy it.
